The Beach Boys cancel a handful of dates at the last minute ahead of a planned tour marking 60 years since the release of *Pet Sounds*. Multiple outlets report the cancellations happen hours before the run was due to begin.
NME and VICE both describe the cancellations as abrupt, with specific dates affected not fully detailed in the excerpts provided. NME adds context that the band had previously rescheduled at least one date last July, saying they needed to “recharge.” Neither outlet excerpted attributes the cancellations to a specific cause.
The differing emphasis between outlets centers on timing and framing: VICE highlights the sudden nature of the cancellations just hours before the tour was set to start, while NME focuses on the last-minute cancellation pattern and the earlier rescheduling. Both confirm that the cancellations relate to the *Pet Sounds 60* tour plans.
