I would love for Al to do Trigger Happy. With the current state of affairs on that issue, it is actually kind of topical, too!

I know it will never happen, but I'll never stop dreaming for "Hardware Store" to find its way into the setlist.
Oh by the way, I've cracked the code.

I'm thinking:
I'll Be Mellow When I'm Dead
Nature Trail To Hell
Dog Eat Dog
The Biggest Ball Of Twine In Minnesota
Airline Amy

Yeah, those are definitely my top picks this time around, considering Al will probably not be bringing back DTBS and YMM any time soon, again.

I remember thinking that it's be awesome to have IAATP start playing and then halfway through, everything "glitches out" leading into Virus Alert.

Now, THIS I'd definitely like to see! One question, though. How would that work costume wise?

Use the silver suit of Pentiums. Sell the fact that it's a legitimate version of the song and everything.

Plus, I'm sure various members of the forum would love to see a return of it.

If Pentiums were to return (in the medley at most, I'd hope) it would be funny to see it accompanied by retro Windows 95/XP visuals, a reimagining of the song where it's aware that it's outdated.

Yeah, but do you think Al would take off the silver jacket to reveal a Sparks-inspired costume underneath?
