The show was freaking awesome. I bet everyone under the grandstand was terrified when everyone was stomping during Weasel Stomping Day. My legs and voice are still hurting.

The show started at 7:30, but me and my friend were there since 5 so we could get front row grandstand seats. And we got them, indeed.

Awesome.

Welcome to the board arte :) I was there too and the stomping during that video added to the enjoyment of that song as I was on the ground haha :D

Ya got any Halle Berry donuts?

I liked how the cheering got reallllly loud when he said "A garage band from Seattle" in Smells Like Nirvana. And how everybody got silent instantly when one of the video clips came up.

Does anybody have an exact setlist? I kept forgetting to write it into my cell phone.

Alas I am new here... Be gentle.
Quick question. I live here in SW Washington and could not make it to the Puyallup fair. :( Sounds like Al put on a great show as usual.

I was thinking of hitting the one in Yakima on October 6th and was looking at the tickets and dreading the thought of the 3.5 hour one way trip when I noticed Tickets West has Al playing at the Napavine Ampitheater (nearer to Chahelis WA) on October 7th. I didn't see anything on the official concert list, nor on the tracker. Anyone know about this? I would love to suprise my wife (her birthday is close) and my two Al loving daughters (11 and 7). Yakima is a bit far to haul them but Chahelis is in easy range!

One change I noticed from the other Puyallup shows is that the changing tent was behind the screens instead of to the side of the stage like in the bast.

At this point we still don't know for sure if the Napavine show will in fact happen. The venue has been announcing it for a while on their web site and has been selling tickets, but it has yet to be confirmed by Weirdal.com or Al's MySpace.

Thanks for the prompt reply!

Well I guess I could buy tickets and take a wait and see approach. Possibly call Tickets West and ask a real person though they may just give me the "if it's on the website it must be true".

I guess I shall cross my fingers and hope.

What's the worst thing that can happen if you buy tickets for Napavine and it's not official? They'll refund the credit card I assume.

BTW..you have some great pics there Infernal Noise Brigade!
