In 1963, The Beach Boys had their first of many number one hits when “Surfin’ U.S.A.” rose to the top of the Billboard charts.
60 years later, the group is still touring their timeless music.
Led by original member Mike Love, the band will bring classic songs like “Good Vibrations,” “Wouldn’t It Be Nice,” “I Get Around,” “Fun, Fun, Fun,” “Barbara Ann” and countless others to major venues all over the U.S. from February through September.
That includes one stop in the northeast when The Beach Boys drop into Asbury Park, NJ’s Sea.Hear.Now Music Festival on Sept. 16-17 alongside headliners like Foo Fighters and The Killers.
Plus, there’s a very real possibility that “Full House” star John Stamos may appear onstage at the concert of your choosing.
And we’re getting good vibrations from the prices to see the Rock and Roll Hall of Famers on the road this year.
At the time of publication, we found some tickets going for as low as $37 before fees on Vivid Seats.
Not a bad price to be transported to the summer, no matter what the season is.
