John Stamos has had a longstanding relationship with The Beach Boys dating back to July 4, 1985 when he played his first official show with the iconic band at the Washington Monument, for close to a million people. Stamos aimed to introduce a younger generation to the timeless music of The Beach Boys and prominently featured the band on Full House and his subsequent television shows. Throughout almost four decades, he has maintained an enduring friendship with The Beach Boys and has captivated audiences on various worldwide tours. Stamos has appeared in several of their music videos and even directed the video for their song “Hot Fun in the Summertime.” One of his most notable contributions was his appearance in their chart-topping hit single “Kokomo.” Stamos enthusiastically describes The Beach Boys music as “heart music,” explaining how it bypasses the brain and goes directly to the heart. “I believe their songs have been patiently waiting for this moment, perfectly timed to uplift spirits, especially when needed the most,” he said. “I’m humbled that I get to be part of something truly special, something bigger than ourselves. You must see The Beach Boys ASAP! It’s an unforgettable opportunity to remind everyone of the massive power music holds to heal and unite. Together, they continue to captivate audiences, honoring the timeless appeal of America’s Band, The Beach Boys.” Stamos’ New York Times best-selling memoir, If You Would Have Told Me was released by Henry Holt & Co. on October 24, 2023.
The Beach Boys today also announced that they will bring three shows of their Endless Summer: An Exclusive Vegas Engagement to The Venetian Theatre inside The Venetian Resort Las Vegas this September. The shows will be held on Wednesday, September 4, Friday, September 6 and Saturday, September 7, 2024, at 8:30 p.m. Tickets start at $45, plus applicable fees, and will go on sale to the general public Friday, May 24, at 10 a.m. PT.
