I managed to get the whole video, and the whole sound track.... but separately. Maybe later I'll try to put them together... :unsure:
It does sound like a set up, though. :lol:

I think this show wins the "Longest Delay For Setlist Posting" award...

It'd be awesome if you could find a way to share it, for those of us who weren't able to see/hear the video!

Not a set-up or a work, it was quite spontaneous.

Well all things considered, the fan was a good sport. The whole "I've only seen Grease once" was perfect. Al's ribbing after was done in a kind spirit and it was cool that he said sorry.

This was a quintessential moment of the vanity tour. Casual, spontaneous, and full of risk taking with fans that tend to show our boy lots of love and empathy.

I wonder if that fan will ever pop in here some time.

edit: Deep apologies. I was only able to hear the whole thing and it became apparent I may have used wrong pronouns.

I don't know where to look for this video, but I'm dying to see it!! What is JW's Instagram handle?

His IG handle is jwhallford. But the video was posted to his story on 6/3 so it's gone now. Sounds like Margarita might have been able to grab it but the video and sound files are separate.

Well, both audio and video files were damaged (this is probably why noone could watch it on instagram), so this is my attempt to put them together.

Alright, the Duet part was hilarious...but the minutes leading up to it...that hurt to watch.

"What's your name?" : I don't like it, so I don't go by it.
"What do you go by?" : Uh...what?
"What's her name?" : Luke
"I'm going to call you Luke.": That's not my name
"What do you do for a living, Luke?" : I just got fired today

I can see why people thought it was staged. That seems like a scene straight out of Uncle Nutsy's Clubhouse

The only thing that made me cringe was every time she went "Uuuuuugh", everything else was clever and fun, I think. Especially "I've only seen Grease once!" :lol:
