I hear they're doing double billed shows with The Temptations in the States this summer.
Unfortunately, this likely means shorter greatest hits only sets.
The Kennedy Center is just the Beach Boys with the NSO.

After checking their itinerary, the Temptations are playing their own show at The Paramount Theatre in Charlottesville, VA that night.

I might consider that show if I were in town that week. I saw it posted in the BW Forum.
But, I also put out some money for the Guns N Roses C29 tour at Fed Ex Field.

Much like 2012 when I knew I had my only shot to see Mike and Brian on the same stage, I know this is my only chance to see Axl and Slash on the same stage.
Granted, I'm in the nosebleeds (no way was I going to pay $250 for 3/5 of GNR), but I'll be there. And I took the next day off from work in case Axl decides to not start on time.
Plus, it takes about a day and a half to get out of the Fed Ex Field parking lot.

I was at that McCartney show in 2009. Was stuck in traffic for four hours trying to get to the show. Luckily, Paul went on late, so we only missed the first couple songs.

If the reunited GNR manage to play as many shows as the BB's did in 2012, I'll be amazed!

I doubt they will, but you never know. Money talks. The members of Motley Crue hated each other, but they managed to tour consistently for a decade.
I do think that the GNR thing will have a very similar ending to the Beach Boys C50. Whenever the obligations of the current "Not in This Lifetime Tour" ends, Axl will find a new guitarist. Slash will go back to being a solo artist. Duff will go back to his various projects. And GNR will go on as Axl and Co.

Wow, I would say that is pretty big news. When is the last time the touring acting (aside from C50) carried a sax player? I always thought this was a glaring hole in the bands lineup.

Actually, it hasn't been too uncommon for the touring band to bring along a wind player for sporadic dates. The reviewer didn't seem to be very clear on their band member history, so I'm going to assume this isn't a permanent fixture for the band.

That is true. They have had a horn/sax/woodwind player during certain tour runs for the last several years, and had a different guy for a February run in the NY/NJ area. It isn't entirely new.

The guy looks as though he has a pretty steady and impressive clientele he works for, and may not be exclusive to the Touring Band. His website in the link shows photos of some of them.

Going by memory, Richie's last show was the infamous Mahwah NJ show in 1998. This was the first show after Mike got the license for the Beach Boys name.
Joel Peskin appeared on and off over the years after that. (Going by memory). I get the impression that Randy is going to be a regular band member. Mike mentioned him on his Facebook page, saying it was his first show, and that there was a lot of positive feedback.

I recall that Joel Peskin traveled with the touring band at least a little bit on and off in the first few post-1998 years. I believe he was with the band during one of their "Today" show appearances circa 2000 or 2001.
It struck me as weird back then, and I always suspected Mike just really wanted that "Kokomo" sax solo, because few of the songs, especially in the setlists Mike was doing in the 1998-2001 timeframe, required sax. That and "California Dreamin'" were the two of very few full-on extended "sax solo" pieces as I recall, and I guess "Shut Down" if we want to include that one.
As awesome as Richie Cannata is/was, I've never felt the touring band needed a full-time sax player. What ends up happening is you sometimes get "rhythm sax" on songs that don't need it and sound worse for it. It's like once a band foots the bill for a sax player, they feel like they have to use the player and not just have them stand there doing nothing for 75% of the show.
Al used Richie Cannata on a few other things in "Family & Friends", like a pretty impressive solo during "Lookin' at Tomorrow."
But I've never liked extra "rhythm sax"; it's one of the few things I haven't liked about Paul Mertens in Brian's band. Fortunately, Mertens works in some other woodwind stuff, so he's still a key player. But I've never liked the "bass sax" on something like "This Whole World."

Brian introduced The Little Girl I Once Knew by saying that the first two notes sounded "Chinese," but not to worry because the rest of the song was "American."

Looks like they changed the set around a bit. Surfin' U.S.A. is in the opening songs now, Little Honda is with the car songs too. Mike also said in his post they'd be adding more Pet Sounds songs soon too.

I'm pretty sure it would be "Summer in Paradise." The "California Dreamin'/Summer in Paradise" pairing has been used going back to the 90s, with one song leading right into the other.

I guess it makes sense since they both featured Roger McGuinn (the UK SIP anyway).
