Ok, I'm gonna post some of my pics from the PH tour, if that's ok. I haven't posted these in a while, so what the hey.


Al, doing his best Mark Knopfler imitation

4 words that Al said to me that blew me away:

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

So awesome!

Great pictures, Patti! At my next concert, I have close seats and a brand-spankin new camera! Guaranteed for drool-worth pictures!

Of course, l leaned forward on the chair in front of me (the folks in the first row left before the encore) and stared back! Hey, I may not win but I certainly won't back down from a staring challenge! This is the second concert in a row where he's singled me out for that "wild-eyed" stare he does, the first being the very end of WBUL at Glen Allen. Thankfully, I was able to keep my salivary glands under control under both circumstances!
:-O that happened to me!!! I was 3rd from the front (standing) and in that song he came over to my side of the stage and looked right into my eyes! I was dumbstruck! His expression didn't change - neither did mine - I think I must have looked blissfully in shock! lol It was this weird 'eye-stare-trance' thing. I didn't grin a lot - or look unhappy - just neutral. I don't think either of us blinked for nearly 10 very long seconds!!!

I love Al's wide-eyed stare. I wish I had had the presence of mind to snap a pic as he made his way over to stage right, leaned toward us, opened the bellows of the accordion, and stared at both me and my friend Dawn during "Party at the Leper Colony". We both started cracking up, and lost our places while doing the hand jive.

Mocking us Canadians! (oh! how dare he! lol)

sadly not trapped in the drivethrough with Al...

Singing his heart out
Is it me or is Al's singing often overlooked (in reviews/the public)...he's so versatile and man, he sounds amazing in Do I Creep You Out!

"Yes, I work out - why do you ask?"
