===Live albums and ''Brian Wilson Presents Smile''===

Early in 2000, Wilson released his first live album, ''[[Live at the Roxy Theatre]]''.{{sfn|Badman|2004|p=377}} Later that year, he embarked on U.S. tour dates featuring the first full live performances of ''Pet Sounds'', with Wilson backed by a 55-piece orchestra. Van Dyke Parks was commissioned to write an [[overture]] arrangement of Wilson's songs.{{sfn|Granata|2003|p=230}} Although critics praised the tour, it was poorly attended and resulted in hundreds of thousands of dollars in losses.{{sfn|Badman|2004|p=377}} In March 2001, Wilson attended a [[An All-Star Tribute to Brian Wilson|tribute show held in his honor]] at [[Radio City Music Hall]] in New York, where he performed "Heroes and Villains" publicly for the first time in decades.{{sfn|Carlin|2006|p=301}}{{sfn|Priore|2005|p=125}}

The ''Pet Sounds'' tour was followed by one in Europe in 2002, with a sold-out four-night residency at the [[Royal Festival Hall]] in London.{{sfn|Carlin|2006|p=298}} Recordings from these concerts were issued as the live album ''[[Brian Wilson Presents Pet Sounds Live]]'' (June 2002).{{sfn|Granata|2003|p=233}} Over the next year, Wilson continued sporadic recording sessions for his fourth solo album, ''[[Gettin' In over My Head]]''.{{sfn|Dillon|2012|p=276}} Released in June 2004, the record featured guest appearances from Parks, Paul McCartney, [[Eric Clapton]], and [[Elton John]].{{sfn|Badman|2004|p=378}} Some of the songs were leftovers from Wilson's collaborations with Paley and Thomas.{{sfn|Wilson|Greenman|2016|p=205}}
