    Brian Wilson was closing for the SF Giants all last season. He had tommy john surgery so he has been out all year this year :)
    If life had more tubes it would be a lot smoother.

    Sorry to rain on ya'll's parade, but Brian Wilson is a song writing genius and arranged some awesome songs. Check out some of Brian's performances on dvd with his backup band, The Wondermints. The original Beach Boys were_ awesome and it was Brian who taught his brothers to sing those harmonies so well. I heard Mike Love on some songs from this recent BB tour and he didn't exactly wow me.

    The 50th anniversary tour was designed to go for a year and then end," Love confirmed, at an awards presentation in front of a special Beach Boys exhibit at Los Angeles's Grammy museum. "You have to be careful not to get overexposed," he added, citing fears that interest would level off and ticket prices would fall.


    Yep... over-exposure for a 50 year old has been act is a real ****. Perhaps if he hung out with Paul Ruebens, he could see what over-exposure really is.
