"Super tours" are normally arranged by having one pretty-big-deal band opening for another even bigger deal band, but everyone knows that the highlights happens when the two performers are onstage at the same time. Such is the case with the current "Legends of Summer" tour featuring Jay-Z and Justin Timberlake. Brian Wilson and Jeff Beck realize that the best moments will be the ones they share, so they designed their upcoming monthlong tour accordingly.
"Brian will kick things off, but I'll also be given enough time to establish what I'm about," says Beck. "In the end, we'll mix and match. It's a complete honor to be on stage with him."
Mixing and matching will be necessary for the two to please both sides of the audience. Wilson is best known as the leader of the surf-rock legends The Beach Boys, and Beck has established himself as one of the greatest guitarists in history, at least certainly from the outlook of his cohorts. Wilson has dabbled around with experimental music before, but most of his popularity is based on the Boys' pop-friendly vocals. It will be interesting to see how the sides mesh.
