Is This An Error?

Event getting a mention on the Endless Harmony Board under the title BB Ultimate Get Together. I’m not a member but perhaps someone could query, correct. Bit surprised given his…history.

It's a real fan event in the UK, and looks to be organized by the folks who put together the Beach Boys Britain fan gatherings.
Edit: I just realized you were questioning the name in yellow (which doesn't show up well for those of us using a light theme).

I googled this crime and found an interesting tidbit from Karmafrog on reddit:
"
Scott was far from blameless, but I'll just say there was some very selective release of information and omission of context by the prosecution, and the media coverage that resulted.
....
Some of what I know is second hand through a (female, and very feminist) lawyer who viewed the entirety of the tape, not just what was released. She was outraged at how it was portrayed.
"
Those closer to Scott are probably more willing to forgive based on context that those of us in the nose-bleed section aren't privy to.

God must’ve smiled the day Brian Wilson was born!
"ragegasm" - /rāj • ga-zəm/ : a logical mental response produced when your favorite band becomes remotely associated with the bro-country genre.
Ever want to hear some Beach Boys songs mashed up together like The Beatles' 'LOVE' album? Check out my mix!

Carl Wilson is not amused.

I'm not speaking to how anybody should feel about Bennett, but if you've followed this stuff over the past decade, a number of people in that community, including some band members, have remained supportive of Bennett (providing testimonials on his music industry "for hire" page, etc.). So I'm not surprised that some folks would be fine doing an event with him.
I recall at some point several years back, Bennett was soliciting music industry work using a pseudonym/name change, but I guess he's not doing that anymore?, maybe because the only way people could look up his music credits is under his name.
Unfortunately (or fortunately, depending on one's view), when you Google "Scott Bennett Brian Wilson", the search results are still probably as close to career-killing as something can be.
I don't know anything about the guy or what he's doing now, but it wouldn't surprise me if he's either in a totally other line or work now, or working on a more staff level in music to where he isn't selling his services based on his name recognition/clout having worked with Brian Wilson.

Scott lives in the UK.
Seriously? Unless he is a UK citizen I’m not sure how that happened.
I think he should be distanced from anything Beach Boys/ Brian Wilson at this point personally.

I'll be "advocatus diaboli" here and note that SB served his time and paid his debt to society. The fact is that from "Imagination" through Brian's late-career renaissance, SB is part of the story. Heck, he's a person Brian called "the most talented musician I've ever met." Digest that one for a minute. None of that can't be changed or taken away from him. Must he be ostracized forever?

Well he would remain on the sexual offenders registry for life I believe.
Hey, as long as the organisers and attendees are ok with it I guess that’s their business. The venue might be concerned if he is there in person?
The incident happened on a Brian Wilson Tour. Brian and The Beach Boys name still being associated with the guy leaves a bad taste tbh.

The whole point of the law is for society to outline what criminals owe them. As a society, we outlined it and he paid it

Exactly. He did his time, he should be forgiven.
