Starting on Opening Day, these commemorative items will be available at Dodger Stadium and on The Beach Boys' 2012 reunion tour.
The Dodgers will also dedicate the Friday, May 18 game (vs. STL at 7:10 p.m.) to The Beach Boys.

After the game, fans can go on the field to watch a Friday Night Fireworks show set to The Beach Boys' music.
Any chance they'll perform Pet Sounds in its entirety? Or recreate scenes from Cocktail?
A couple of years ago, I saw Brian Wilson perform Smile at the Hollywood Bowl. I'm pretty sure they had him behind a keyboard that was not plugged in. As another great singer once said, "Still crazy after all these years."

I'm fucking there if John Stamos makes a special guest with the Beach Boys.
If you put Timmeh next to Wilson in that pic you'd have the Captain and Tennille.
I've loathed the Beach Boys for fifty years and am glad I'm going to the second game, rather than this one.
We'll get there fast and then we'll take it slow!
I love the Beach Boys as much as Dave above must loathe them. Bring it!
Beach Boys: Fifty Years of Hate
Sounds like a tell-all waiting to happen
@ Spank Want a sign of an AWESOME day? That was the SECOND Captain and Tennille joke I heard in 24 Hours.
