Beats a 37-year wait. Five months, I mean. Not dying. Dying is substantially worse than a 37-year wait.

I just want to clarify my earlier comments.
Brian has presented his music in many different ways during promotions. For the Imagination album, if I recall correctly, he had a big concert in Illinois. While the band performed live, his studio vocal tracks were played, and he sang along with them. For the Lucky Old Sun album, it appears as though he and the band performed live at Capitol Studios, while some vocal tracks from the album were laid in later.
For BWPS, it was a far different situation, because he and the band had been performing the album live on the road. Again if I recall correctly, they did a few days of taping, and edited together the best vocal and video pieces. As far as I can remember, he has truly only mimed twice..One was in the footage from IJWMFTT. The other was the promotional appearances he did for the Christmas album.
Given that this album is going to contain a lot of new, unfamiliar material, my simple assumption was that the producers of the show would go for the simplest and easiest route -- either miming or post-production fiddling, since they were both used before. It's definitely a positive sign that they're not doing that.
A relaxed, in-command Brian is far preferable to a hesitant-looking one, even if a few notes are missed.

Regarding the
TLOS
DVD footage, I recall being told they did five complete run-throughs at Capitol, then comped the best takes.

Since Dean Parks has recorded tracks for the album, it would not only make sense to have him make some live appearances but it would be a terrific thing too, as he is rightfully so considered one of the finest studio guitarists in the business and has been for several decades. In the business he has the nickname (as said by others) as "The Dean" of Hollywood guitarists, and has a resume of high profile film and studio credits at least a few miles long.
When I saw that Dean, Kenny Aronoff, and Jim Keltner had done tracks for the album, as a musician I was beyond excited to hear what they bring to the tracks. With Dean in particular, he does live dates but you often don't see him featured on stage especially when he's playing various awards shows and the like...millions hear him all over TV and film scores but you don't get to actually see and watch him play as often, so this is a pretty cool thing.
I saw Dean Parks play live with Crosby-Nash in 2005. It was an excellent show.
Dean Parks also played on the Joey Lawrence album from years ago, for those who remember Joey Lawrence.

It sounded a lot longer when I first read the "fall" comment.
5 months is not bad at all, I can wait that long.

Apologies if this has been posted already. December Las Vegas date to be filmed for AXS TV special:
http://www.venetian.com/entertainment/shows/brian-wilson.html
Soundstage = Joe "
MORE AUTOTUNE !!!
" Thomas.
Brian's vocals are too sketchy in a live setting to realistically expect anyone to leave them alone in a live recording, so something--auto tune or rerecording or whatever--would be likely regardless. (Not a knock on Brian, just the reality of "live" recording these past few, decades. And BW is on the shakier side of the pitch and confidence spectrum.) Hopefully the JT Delight has been retired for more tasteful treatment, though.
I usually don't comment on the Autotune thing because it doesn't bother me much and it's more annoying to me, that people make such a big deal out of it. I'll say this though: It appears processing vocals is almost inevitable on ANTYHING anymore. There was a huge "George Strait" concert on T.V. a few weeks ago (his last tour concert) and the entire thing was heavily, heavily processed. He can clearly still sing very well, as good as he ever could, and his songs aren't challenging to sing... but he sounded very robotic, all the way through it. It took all the character out of his voice, which in Country is actually part of the sound, the more curls and twang the song has in it the more 'soul' the song has.
Nobody online is complaining about it, because it's a country show and they're there to sing along and drink beer, not to technically analyze the engineering aspects of the sound rig. Brian has more of an 'audiophile' audience who's more apt to notice it...
My whole point is I think it's going to be hard to get anything out of any 'legend' artists that isn't heavily auto-tuned, they're even auto-tuning the twang out of country performances.

I feel like they will release at least one single for the TV special. They wouldn't play songs from his new album and not make them available for sale, would they? The album will still be about 4 months from being released though, so who knows.

To sum it up, they blew it, they blew it consistently, they continue to blow it, it is tragic and this pathological problem caused The Beach Boys' greatest music to be so underrated by the general public.

Brian Wilson
Al Jardine
Blondie Chaplin
Ricky Fataar

Beach Boys! Noice.
I'm guessing we might not see the group "The Beach Boys" back together, but at the least, how awesome is it that Brian and Al are working with Blondie and Ricky? Amazing.

On our way through this "backstage" maze, Bruce joined up with the group and said hello, singing "It Never Rains in Southern California" and joking with some of the older ladies. I'm not sure if they knew he was a Beach Boy or simply an enthusiastic elderly gay gentleman.

The way I'm reading the FB page message above may be wrong but to me it implies Ricky is on the album. That's not the case is it?

I don't think he's on the album, just a feeling and could be wrong, but if he is, then that's pretty badass. I agree that the wording makes it sound like he is on the album, though.

If he is on the album... that'll mean there are as many Beach Boys on "No Pier Pressure" as on "That's Why God Made The Radio".
Maybe not all on the same tracks, but even so...!
