The legendary front-man and original member of The Beach Boys was on WIBX's Keeler Show Thursday promoting the band's upcoming show at the Event Center at the Turning Stone Resort and Casino on Friday.

"I am looking forward to coming back to Verona," said Love who turned 82-years-old back in March. The 2023 version of The Beach Boys features Love, Bruce Johnston, off-and-on drummer/actor John Stamos, and a host of other musicians playing the songs made famous by the California band for almost 60 years.

Love said the show will run about 2 and a half hours. There will be two one-hour sets with a 20-minute intermission in between.

Listen to Mike Love's interview on Keeler.

All week long, the Keeler Show was playing a pretty tough medley of Beach Boys songs and 6 winners came up with the song titles on Friday morning. Here are the winning answers.
