Woo hoo! :onfire:
I've got vacation approved, I've got a plane ticket, I've got a concert ticket (in row BB), I've got a hotel reservation. Looks like...

...I'm going to see Al in Victoria!

(actually going to arrive the 19th and leave the 22nd... this is sort of my big splurge vacation for the summer)
"Weird Al" has a charisma that's all his own. The awkward, the misshapen, the socially inept flock to his banner.

That's great Helen. Sounds like a pretty good seat too.! It's really nice there have been forum members at nearly all the gigs this year.

Hope you have a fabulous time! :D

That's awesome, Helen. If only Al had booked a gig in Sarnia. I could stand going across the river to see him. Ah, well. You'll just have to have a good time for all of us!

:D
4 words that Al said to me that blew me away:

"How's Problem Child doing?"

So awesome!

Hey, I was in row BB too!

Not sure what the variables in his set are on this tour versus last year, but we got "Bob" instead of "Why Does..." and no "I'll Sue Ya". "Albuquerque" was extended compared to last year, but that's probably standard... What a show! :lol:

Well, Al does put on a mean show!
"Did you see Journey to the Center of the Earth?"
"I did!"
"Me neither...wait..."
"You had that planned didn't you?"
"..yeah.."

I traveled to BC for the Victoria and Coquitlam show. It was amazing and brilliant. Didn't get too many photos from the Victoria show due to security. If interested, check out my photos posted here

I saw your blog and the pics over at the Yankovic! site, on the Yank Blog. I love how the pictures overlap. Very cool! Plus, they're fantastic pictures even so. Thanks so much for sharing them!
