While the Beach Boys were preparing to give a concert in Nevada on Wednesday, Brian Wilson, the former leader of the group, called for the boycott of this performance on Twitter. Indeed, this concert was given as part of a pro-hunting convention, which the former Beach Boy opposed.

Call for a boycott of his own group. Boy Brian, the former bassist and songwriter for the Beach Boys group, did just that. On Twitter, he asked his fans to sign a petition to have a concert by the group canceled. This concert took place Wednesday in Reno in Nevada and was given as part of a pro-hunting convention.

This organization supports trophy hunting, which Both Al and I are emphatically opposed to. There's nothing we can do personally to stop the show, so please join us in signing the petition at https://t.co/vOUtJDq6t2

"It has been brought to my attention that on Wednesday February 5, the Beach Boys, led by Mike Love, will perform at the Safari Club International convention," Brian Wislon wrote on Twitter. The former bassist continues: "This organization encourages hunting in order to collect trophies, a practice that we oppose. There is nothing we can do personally to cancel this performance, so please , support us by signing this petition. "

The Beach Boys, now led by Mike Love, maintained the concert by promoting freedom of thought and expression, despite the 120,000 signatures that the petition collected.
