Don't expect immediate word on that much-ballyhooed Beach Boys 50th anniversary reunion. According to singer Mike Love, the group hasn't even hatched a plan yet to celebrate the five decades since its debut single 'Surfin'' next year.

"There have been a lot of ideas floated, but nothing decided," Love told Billboard. "So far it's just conversation. There are no big plans yet -- although there's a lot of interest from a lot of people to see what would happen if we got together and did some new music and maybe did some shows. But so far nothing's firm."

"I've had a few conversations recently with my cousin Brian ... about doing some musical projects together," added Love, the original member currently active with the band. "But we're busy touring, he's busy recording and doing some dates, so in the fall we'll get more focused on it."

Former member and co-founder Al Jardine recently suggested that Brian Wilson, Bruce Johnston and David Marks would reunite in 2011 for at least one reunion gig.
