In case doesn't work, memo says:

Hi everyone, Brian here. I’m sitting at Capitol Records and ready to answer some questions. Before I start, I want to share some cool news: I’m going on tour this summer starting in June. Both Al Jardine and Blondie Chaplin will be joining me and my band and we will have the amazing Rodriguez opening the shows in the US. I’m really excited. All the dates will be on my website this afternoon, take a look!

Alright! Blondie where he should be. Can someone go throw a bucket of rats on Steve Love's lawn?

Hmm, the Greek, Jones Beach.  Pretty decent venues.

Mike Bruce and David couldn't sell out Jones Beach, in fact not even close and that was with Lovin Spoonful and The Rascals. I'll be interested to see if Brian, Al and Blondie can sell it out or at least do better attendance wise.

Also the SD venue. I hope they can also book RAH if Mike doesn't mark his territory and leave a bunch of unsold BBs baseball caps around to dissuade the management.

Someone tell me when tickets will be on sale so I can stop refreshing the Greek's page. I missed Brianfest and if I miss this, there will be consequences. Whiny whining consequences.

It's also not very many dates for the U.S. i would hope there are more dates to come or at least he comes back in the fall for some more dates.

Absolutely. More dates in better places! 5 hours, minimum, is too far to drive (Chicago/Nashville)

Having Al and Blondie there will take a lot of weight off Brian. These shows should be great.

According to someone who would know.

Seriously, there was a Beach Boys Love You condom?!  Amazing.

In a way, yes. Sixto Rodriguez' story is told in this movie (here's the trailer): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8hEojBYmR-o

Yeah i'm in the DC area and a 2 and a half hour drive to Philly is worth it but i would think a show closer to that area would be in the cards.

I see the Philly show will be outdoors on June 29th. Though, if it has to be outdoors, The Mann Center is one of the better venues. It's covered and has pretty decent acoustics. I'll be there! Smiley

Up that day at 5:45 ish...and then...After a 6 hour shift and then a minimum 5 hour drive to the venue...I'd get there just around 7:30 pm...if everything is accident/event free and if the weather doesn't include rain which causes way too many people to drive like it's a freakin' blizzard.  And then?  I'll be a basket of nails.  Pretty sure I'll enjoy the getting to and back from Detroit thing much better on the Sunday.

So far ALL of the dates announced are in The U S of A.  The one exception?  Toronto...on the 4th of July.  Kind of 'odd'.  Celebrate America's Independance out of the country.  Funny how things work out.  Luck of the draw.

FIRST: Somebody has to call the Greek and let them know Brian's tour is playing there, so they can add it to their scheduled events

I too am expecting more dates in the fall...this is a pretty small batch of dates to promote a new album AND film.

Actually this is quite similar in style to 2013...and we got a fall tour then!

Quite a pity David can't be on the tour...
