Beach Boys ditch bad vibrations and reunite for Grammys
(CBS/AP) The Beach Boys put aside their bad vibrations from over the years and reunited to perform at this year's Grammy Awards.
"It was kind of a different experience," head Beach Boy Brian Wilson said backstage after he and his old bandmates performed "Good Vibrations."

"The guys are brilliantly performing their vocals," Wilson added. "I'm very proud of the guys."
The Beach Boys fell apart several years ago due to infighting and lawsuits. Now the band will mark its 50th anniversary with a new CD and tour that will include stops in Europe and Japan. They're also recording new songs written by Wilson and Joe Thomas.
Fellow founding member Mike Love, who just a few years ago wasn't talking to Wilson, his cousin, said the new songs are "fantastic."
He added he is particularly blown away by one called "That's Why God Made the Radio."
"It's a thrill to get together and execute that kind of song,'' said Love.
