Darn that Al Jardine.  Every time I think I'm out, he pulls me back in...

That's what George Costanza said (I think)!

Yeah, it’s from Seinfeld but they were referencing The Godfather part III (I think) when Michael is lamenting that he can’t leave the family business.

Not that it’s a contest, but I’d love to see a 2 member Rolling Stones 60th Tour get ‘out original..ed’ by the Hawthorne boys…even for a one-off.

For those who saw the Beach Boys Talk stream last night, Jon Stebbins was the guest and he commented on Greg, Matt, Evan, and I's thoughts on a potential 60th reunion and whether or not Al was joking. During Evan and I's segment with Greg and Matt earlier on in the stream, Evan and I both agreed that we thought Al was just joking and messing with the fans, but when Jon came on he pretty much said without revealing any details that Al was not joking and there are big things being planned/discussed. After the stream ended, I also heard from a different inside source who confirmed a few things Jon was hinting at, some of which I've heard rumblings about. But needless to say, I no longer think Al was joking.

I am still not getting my hopes up. Nothing is a sure thing until it happens, just like the Feel Flows box set delay showed. But still, I am much more excited about the possibility of a potential reunion now compared to how I felt 8 hours ago.

Edit: Edited for clarity.

This press release around the Sounds of Summer 6LP also mentions a tribute concert.

https://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/the-beach-boys-announce-yearlong-60th-anniversary-global-celebration-301535248.html

Would suggest that if it's not in that press statement, then that tribute gig (which may feature some, all or none of the BBs) is the closest we'll get to a 60th celebration

Just pointing out that by the September this year, 4 of the C50 principles will be in their 80s. Planning and promoting any kind of Beach Boys band participation in their own tribute months out is possibly being viewed as a ‘if possible’.

You can always count on Al spilling the beans.

Interesting….9:35 Al talks about about a possible ‘trial’ reunion show being proposed.

If they were the Kinks, they'd wait until year 61 or 62 to do a 60th anniversary reunion.

On the other hand, this IS the Beach Boys we're talking about.

They've all got their own bookings set through pretty much the end of the year. Mike already has 2023 dates scheduled.

The only way an actual gig could happen would be a one-off (or a very short series of shows). And if they did that, I'd say there's a decent chance it might not even be a regular "gig" as such, but some sort of thing shot on a TV sound stage with an invited audience or something. One of those deals where you play two or three nights and then edit it together as one "concert special."

I don't see much of a scenario where a live show at this stage could approach the stunning quality of the 2012 tour. Even setting aside that they're all 10 years older and really only Al still sounds as good, if they do a one-off or short series of shows, I would doubt the setlist would be as deep or as lengthy as the best of those 2012 shows. That tour started out great in terms of show quality, but it absolutely evolved as it continued, with longer, more interesting setlists. I don't see a 2022 one-off show replicated that 2012 Royal Albert Hall show where they did 61 songs.

Not sure if anyone saw Al's recent comments in an interview but he touchs on the documentary (apparently nothing has officially started at least with the living band members) and a potential reunion:
"It'd be nice to have a reunion. I bug them about it once every couple of weeks until they are sick of hearing from me, I think. See, they have Mike Love out there.  So as long as he is out there celebrating the 60th anniversary or Sounds of Summer, they don't need the rest of us (laughs).  Isn't that ironic?  Thanks Iconic, thanks for having us on your label.  It's a little bit of a...it's a cheat.  But it works for them, it just doesn't work for us.  And let that be a little message to my partners over there.  I mean, our business partners.  I think they should know that.  I think they know they know that, but do they know that I know that? (laughs) Anyways..."

Al seems not to be too happy with Iconic at the moment.

Oof, that is a bummer to see.

Of course this could just be a random grumble on Al's part, but this reminds me a bit of the 'Al guesting/not guesting with Mike & Bruce at Jones Beach' dustup of 2014, where we were clearly missing pieces of the story. I wonder what the conversations that got the BBs to sign with Iconic sounded like? It seems at least possible that Al was teased with reunion scenarios that are now not coming to pass.

That was such a disappointing interview.

Over a year later, no movement on the documentary and we're almost certainly not getting a reunion.

Shame.

I haven’t seen the interview (if someone could post a link please?) but I’m also disappointed with the summary. So much for Azoff and his money magic.

EDIT: Fixed typo.

I think the deal was primarily about the payoff for the guys. That and better catalog management, licensing, etc. They have no ability to make Mike do anything he doesn’t want to do, and he’s certainly not going to do a reunion like the 50th again, for reasons that have been litigated at length. The 60th anniversary wasn’t really the point of the deal, just another potential opportunity.

The 60th anniversary wasn’t really the point of the deal, just another potential opportunity.

I think the "near-end of career payout" aspect was a big, big part of it.

I also think it has been clear for many years now that Mike will never stop touring. Only death or severe infirmity will take him off the road. Therefore, it makes sense that Mike probably wouldn't agree to selling to Iconic without being able to keep his tour and license intact.

And yes, the aftermath of the 50th anniversary has always made it seem pretty unlikely that any sort of similar undertaking would take place for the 60th. For a number of years now, I've always felt that the 60th would see a bunch of archival projects and things that don't require a C50-level of commitment and being locked together in the studio and out on the road.

And, as I've said before, while it always remains a little surprising the grand scope of things that these guys all continue to tour and be active to some degree after hitting 80 years old, I never sensed even ten years ago that a 60th anniversary would have the guys in as good a shape vocally (or otherwise). It's one of the reasons the short nature of the C50 tour was such a bummer. The time to continue it was in 2013/14, etc., not a decade later in 2022.

Brian is on tour with Chicago (why?) And The Beach Boys are still playing County fairs.

The touring situation is a mess
