BRIAN SET TO MAKE UK 'SMILE' AGAIN!

The Beach Boys legend performs his 'lost' masterpiece again...

star BRIAN WILSON is to bring his 'lost' album 'SMILE' back to the UK.


The singer premiered his lost classic in the UK earlier this year to huge acclaim, watched by the likes of Paul McCartney, Roger Daltrey and Paul Weller. The concept album was originally intended for release in 1967, around the same time The Beatles put out 'Sgt Pepper'. However, Wilson had a breakdown and the album was never finished, giving it almost mythical status amongst fans.


The tour again includes a four-night residency at London's Royal Festival Hall, Wilson's fourth since early 2002.


The tour visits:
Oxford Apollo (July 17)
Portsmouth Guildhall (19)
Ipswich Regent Theatre (20)
Manchester Carling Apollo (22)
London Royal Festival Hall (24, 25, 27, 28)
