John Stamos Reveals Moment He ‘Let Loose and Let Go’

DO YOU PLAN TO CONTINUE TOURING WITH THE BEACH BOYS?  As long as they go, I’m with them. We were playing at this Asbury Park [N.J.] music festival. All these great younger groups [were

scheduled to play], and when I saw it on the books for The Beach Boys, I was like, _Uh-oh, that might be a little scary — an oldies act playing there._ … We go out on stage — and it was

35,000 people — and they went absolutely batsh*t for us. It was people in their 30s or 40s, and they went nuts. … The [Beach Boys] music now, I feel [is stronger for people] than it was when

they wrote it. [Songs like] “Wouldn't It Be Nice,” “Good Vibrations,” “Fun, Fun, Fun”_ _— all optimistic, happy [and they bring back memories for people] of past times that meant

something to them. So [I realized], Ah, that's sort of what _Full House_ has become for people. If they turn it on, it's safe. It's like a good, warm, home-cooked meal. ANY

BUCKET-LIST ACTING ROLES YOU STILL WANT TO DO? I'm still waiting for my _Breaking Bad_ moment. I think it's coming. You work so hard to change people's perception of you, and

then you realize, I gotta stop_. _I did a [Broadway] play with James Earl Jones [_The Best Man,_ 2012] — [it got] great reviews, [and I spent] three hours on stage with the best actor alive.

And the last night we were walking across the stage, I said, “James, you did something for me that no one's done. You gave me a real sense of legitimacy. People will now look at me as

a real actor, and it's because of you.” We walk outside, doors open to fans screaming, “Uncle Jesse!” I was mortified and I couldn't look out. I was like, _I got to crawl under the

legs. Run down the street._ Just then someone holds their phone up to James and says, “James, could you say, ‘Luke, I am your father’_ _for my kid?” We both look at each other and go, _OK,

stop trying so hard_. So that's where I just let loose and let go. LOOKING BACK ON YOUR LIFE, DO YOU HAVE ANY REGRETS? Writing [the book], I realized that every little bump in the road

— and there were some big ones — landed me where I am here. If I didn't go through that divorce and some of the heartbreak that I did, I wouldn't have had the fairy tale wedding

that I have now, and a child. It's like Indiana Jones [in _Raiders of the Lost Ark_],_ _where he's running from the guys and they're shooting stuff at him and there's a

wall coming down and he grabs his whip and rolls [to safety] just as the wall comes down. That was me with a wife and a kid. I desperately made it. So if I didn't have that, I would

have a lot of regrets. But that's fallen into place, and now it's just time to celebrate the good stuff, celebrate my family, celebrate being a dad.
