(CBS Local) It's been a strenuous 2012 for Beach Boys mastermind Brian Wilson, and many have expressed concerns over the 70-year-old's health as he's toured the globe with his reunited band. Now, Wilson has penned a note to fans reacting to this, and more importantly, revealing hereditary back problems and recent surgery.

Apparently Wilson had surgery before the Boys hit the road this spring for their 50th anniversary tour. Just this week, he had the "cutting edge" procedure redone, following the wrap of the Beach Boys' overseas tour dates.

Read the full text of Wilson's message, which first appeared on his official Tumblr blog, here.
