I hope there's no regular setlist and Al just plays what he wants ... and Yoda.

A different set every night would be interesting, but hard to keep up with

I think Al will continue to keep the encore about the same as it has always been.

From the Ask Al email sent out 6/19/17:
I don't know if I'll actually follow through on it, but right now I'm toying with the idea of maybe doing a different cover song every single night on the 2018 tour.

Reading through this thread, I don't really understand why anyone would be against this. Al has essentially been running the same same exact show since the Running With Scissors Tour in 1999, the only difference is that the material from whatever the current album he is promoting gets switched in and out. Otherwise the format has been the same, the jokes are largely the same, even the video clips have mostly been the same. The Al TV interviews with Eminem, Cher, etc. are funny, but who hasn't seen all those clips or the Weird Al Show stuff, or everything else 100 times now? It's time for Al to make a major overhaul to his live show.

I'd be happy if they did a totally unplugged concert! Can you imagine a whole show just like the unplugged medley? OMG!! It would be like a coffee house setting for a few thousand of his fans at a time!
Well, this is it. This IS the last minute!
