Holy Smoke! Brian Wilson to perform the long lost Beach Boys record Smile in concert.
Abandoned early in 1967, Smile would have been a psychedelic landmark had it ever seen release, and in the years since, its status has become positively legendary. Reams of bootlegs circulate in collectors' and online file-trading circles, and more discussion and writing has been devoted to it than to most albums that have been released.
