Looking back on my childhood, there's were definitely some tunes and bands that stand-out as some favorites of my parents, so we'd hear them all the time.  Dad loved his classic rock, and I remember enjoying Pink Floyd's "Another Brick In The Wall" and Iron Butterfly's "In A Gadda Da Vida."  Mom loved the "oldies station", as well as Chicago, the Beatles, and the Beach Boys.  Such great music from all these bands, especially the summer fun injected into every Beach Boys song.  And this summer, it's the chance to relive those memories, or possibly gift mom with that blast from the past this Mother's Day.

Just announced, the Beach Boys are coming to the iWireless Center this summer; July 29th to be exact.  "Wouldn't It Be Nice" to be "Surfin U.S.A.", right down to "Kokomo", having "Fun, Fun, Fun", feeling those "Good Vibrations!"   Forget going on vacation.  Spending an evening with the Beach Boys, AND a Buffet cover band, puts you in that same tropical mind set.

Tickets don't go on sale officially till next Saturday the 16th, which is a bummer, because you miss the boat on a great Mother's Day gift.  We couldn't have that.  So after some negotiations, we've secured a special presale code, that'll allow you to get tickets starting tomorrow morning at 10am. Click here to get that code.

Even better, we've secured a bunch of tickets already, allowing you to "Beat the Box Office" and win them before they even go on sale. Get registered below.

Between Chicago, now THIS show, even Rod Stewart, this summer is truly a blast from the past full of GREAT music.  I for one can't wait. Who knows.  Maybe Uncle Jesse will take a break from the new show to jam with the guys. "Wouldn't It Be Nice"?
