If Ruben's got a bike on the bus, then they've got MORE than one bike, because I think Steve pretty much always travels with his. Can't blame him for wanting some alone-time and move-the-muscles time after all those physically inactive hours spent in the inescapable company of his bandmates.

Of course, Ruben could have been taking Steve's for a bit of a spin.
"Weird Al" has a charisma that's all his own. The awkward, the misshapen, the socially inept flock to his banner.

Yeah, Ruben got a bike out of the storage area of the bus. Not sure if it was his own or not. Hadn't seen Steve yet that day, so it could have just been his that he grabbed. Just went for a short ride around the parking lot.

I knew I had seen Marty post a few times in the past on here, and thought he might..especially with it being a few shows he went to. Either way, it was cool to see Al elaborate in that part and nice to meet Marty for a few seconds waiting for Al after the show.

As for my last post here, it's not a secret code. It's probably just best that I didn't put it full. Any B*'s are Bermuda..J & D is Jared and Dan and the last sentence, is a word that we're not allowed to see or hear. That might preplex you even more. I got thrown out of one, if it helps...wasn't sure if I was allowed to do anything with the word.

Minus the no photography rule, this venue, and its security were very very nice. They let Dan and me meet Al and get autographs and pictures. I had Al sign my Poodle Hat *cassette* (check the rare page at weirdal.com), and Al said he had never seen one before, and wanted to check it out. So I got to chat with him about it for a couple minutes, then he signed it, and we posed for a pic, shook hands. It was cool to meet him again. Like Jeremy, before the show we ran into him on his way into the grill, and he recognized us and said Hi. :) I cant wait for some more shows next month! This has been another fun couple days.

That cassette of SOL was really cool to see. I'll need to see if I can pick one up for my own collection.

I didn't have a net connection while I was away from home, so I was unable to post a reply earlier, but yes, Al gave me a very nice shout-out during Albuquerque. :D

Um, ok, that explanation made little sense, Alinite. Why not just type out the people's names? I don't quite understand that. I guess I'll PM you about this word you say you can't use here.
4 words that Al said to me that blew me away:

"How's Problem Child doing?" - 7/12/11

So awesome!

Pretty much everything has already been said.

It was really nice to have the hotel at the same place the concert was... we walked a lot though haha

This was by far my favorite performance of Albuquerque, Al really changed it a lot. The delivery of some of the lyrics was different, and at the end he let people in the front row sing into the mic. There was a lot of energy durring the whole concert!

After the show, like Jared said we were able to meet Al :D

Me with Al!

Cool pic with Al, Dan! Your hair is about the same color as his. Mine is, when I'm not dying it, that is. ;) *You can see my natural color in my profile pic, with Al*

I'm so glad he's having fun with Albuquerque. I'm sure it'll be endless by the time I see him in September. LOL!

Yeah, it's been really cool hearing all the different Albuqueruqe's. Al does seem to have a great time with the song. It was great having the concert at the hotel...those types are so relaxing and you get to see the band and crew a lot during the day.
