I went to that site, and it looked like they spelled it right to me. Hmmmm. But, if you read the info about Al, it says Bad Hair Day is his most recent album, and that it's his 10th.
Well, maybe someone who went to this show will post in here later today, if the show happened, that is.
OE, I'm appalled too. That they would report it as fact without official confirmation of who was inside. There are reasons why the police don't give information out right away. For one thing they wait until family has been notified. Suppose Al finds out by some idiot reporter putting a microphone in his face and asking one of the stupid "How do you feel..." questions.

I hope Al doesn't get the news like that! I bet though that he got a call from some close relative.
That's what they did to him when Frankie Yankovic died and the reporter thought it was Al's dad. They called him on the phone, waking him up to ask how he felt about his father's passing. Real classy.

Oh, I hate that. "How did you feel when you realized they had amputated the wrong foot?" or "How did you feel when you lost all of your material possessions in that house fire?" How do you think anyone undergoing devastation feels?!? My God!
I talked to Pooh. The show went on as usual, but there was no meet and greet. They were told that Al was sick. Pooh thinks that must be when they told him.
He must feel like he's had his guts ripped out. I don't know about you all, but I'm going to have trouble sleeping. I wish we could help him somehow. I guess our prayers and good thoughts are what we can do.
