John Stamos is sharing how he learned of the news of Beach Boys’ founder Brian Wilson’s death.
In a brief conversation with Entertainment Tonight while on the read carpet for the Songwriters Hall of Fame gala, Stamos got choked up when he recalled getting a text with the news of Wilson’s passing while he was with Wilson’s bandmate and cousin Mike Love.
“Mike and I were together when I got the text, and I had to tell him,” Stamos said through tears. “Without Brian Wilson life would be a mistake.”
“I mean, his music has been part of my DNA,” Stamos wrote. “And the beauty and the happiness and the joy and the optimism and the positivity that I've gotten from their music has made who I am.”
“You know, one of my greatest honors is when someone comes up and says, ‘Oh, I got turned on to the Beach Boys because of you and ‘Full House,’” Stamos shared. The actor and the band often collaborated via the hit sitcom in the 80s and 90s and continued their relationship over the last several decades.
“It’s the greatest gift that I could have given back to them,” Stamos, who will be performing with the Beach Boys at The Town Hall in New York City, continued.

“Tomorrow will be our first show since Brian's gone,” he said referring to the performance. “I don't know how we're gonna get through it. You know, ‘God Only Knows’ starts playing, you know, but we'll get through it, and we have to, you know, for Brian.”
“I think, obviously, the rest of this summer, the rest of the live shows forever, I think will be dedicated to Brian Wilson, and will be a tribute to him.”
Wilson’s family confirmed the news of his death in a statement shared on X on Wednesday, June 11.
Alongside a photo of Wilson, the statement read, “We are heartbroken to announced that our beloved father Brian Wilson has passed away. We are at a loss for words right now.
“Please respect our privacy at this time as our family grieving. We realize that we are sharing our grief with the world,” it continued, before the family signed off, writing, “Love & Mercy.”
Wilson made up one fifth of the popular rock group known as the Beach Boys, which also included his brothers Dennis and Carl Wilson, their cousin Mike Love, and their friend Al Jardine.
Wilson founded the band in 1961, which skyrocketed to fame following the release of their first single “Surfin’” released that same year.
