Mike Love (original) and Bruce Johnston (since 1965). John Stamos claims third longest association withe band (he's played with them for 40 years), but has never technically been an official member. (He will almost certainly show up for this performance -man is Disney obsessed.)

Same.

TheMaxReboJun 06, 2025

We will go if we happen to be there while it is going on .... But we used to plan out trips around it and doing the cooking demonstration and special lunches, etc

DuaneinFloridaJun 06, 2025

Between the hotels, park fees, food, and special events we easily dropped $3K on the real Food and Wine. We have gone to the current fake version three times...but no more. We won't attend until the real thing returns. It will save us a lot of money.
