If you want to talk about how classic the Beach Boys are, there are probably eight billion threads where you can do that. This is the thread where we (almost certainly against our better judgment) defend Mike Love. If you can't make an argument for shitty ballcaps and rolling one's eyes at Brian Wilson's fragility, you'd probably be advised to gtfo of this thread.

Anyway, sorry for getting aggro. Anyone 'round these parts can tell you 'That's Not Me' (a Beach Boys song title)

He is not the reason they are "remembered". (Imho)

Brian's live bands, often with Al Jardine, play a solid dose of classic cars & girls Beach Boys pop hits amidst the more sensitive BBs songs and Brian's other material.
Mike's live Beach Boys, since he's seen the genuine interest in and love for their deeper catalogue that Brian's shows generate, play killer-no-filler state fair sets and two-hour theatre sets that span the Wilsons-era catalogue (plus Kokomo). He is clearly aware that different people remember, or have come to appreciate, different things about the Beach Boys, and he is happy to sell an experience to both major types of them. But it's unlikely that even he, deep down, believes that his shitty 80s and 90s touring Boys are the reason that either audience remember the sunshine songs or the sadness songs.

Chastan gets most excited talking about the Beach Boys’ brand and future tech possibilities. “That includes VR, AR, 3D, CGI, natural language processing, et cetera,” he says. “That, to me, is probably the most interesting aspect of what’s going to transform our business. In five years, I could send you a text and say, ‘At 2 p.m., let’s put our Oculus Rift glasses on, and let’s go see the Beach Boys record ‘Good Vibrations’ at Western Recorders.’ ”The CEO continues: “The studio is still there, so we could 3D scan the studio. The Beach Boys’ faces can be digitally replicated pretty easily. You’ve seen it with that Scorsese movie [The Irishman], where he did the de-aging technology. You’ve got natural language processing, which gives you the technology to actually have a conversation. So we could be witness to history from our couch.”Chastan recently visited with Love in Lake Tahoe, where he looked at old memorabilia. “One thing that Iconic offers, which is absolutely unique, is that we’re a partner while they’re alive to actually help them shape that legacy, which they can’t do once they’re gone,” says Chastan. “How you want to be remembered? How you want to see your legacy in the future, even when you’re not there?”Love even says there may be a day when the Beach Boys are touring long after he stops singing. “As long as it’s presented beautifully and authentically,” he says. “The beauty of music is, even though the originators might not be there anymore, the music can live on for centuries, as you know from the classics. Bach, Beethoven, and Brahms, you know?”

The deal does not give Iconic ownership of much of the Beach Boys’ Sixties material, which is now owned by Universal.
