| THE BEACH BOYS: 50th Anniversary Tour |
BRIAN WILSON | MIKE LOVE & BRUCE JOHNSTON |
|---|---|---|
| ALAN JARDINE | DAVID MARKS | BLONDIE CHAPLIN |
Following the untimely passing of Carl Wilson in 1998, the surviving members of The Beach Boys split up into the different tours listed below. However, The Beach Boys are reuniting in 2012 for a major 50th Anniversary Celebration tour. These dates are listed first. All other tours are listed by the individual BBs (Brian Wilson, Mike Love and Bruce Johnston, Alan Jardine, David Marks) heading them.
In addition, Mike Love has licensed the Beach Boys' name for his tour with Bruce Johnston, so there may be some confusion. We'll endeavor to keep these dates sorted from the reunion dates as best we can. Former BB Blondie Chaplin currently tours as part of the Rolling Stones' band and fellow ex-BB Ricky Fataar currently tours as Bonnie Raitt's drummer. All dates are subject to change.
BBFC does not list private show dates. For a comprehensive listing of songs performed in The Beach Boys' and their spinoff acts' past shows (1962 through present day), visit Eric Anniversario's setlist archive.
