Well, my significant other has been to a few concerts with me. He likes Al, not nearly as much as I do, and he's told me... "Thats your thing to do" LOL
He attends one show per tour, so thats cool..the rest i'm on my own.. Or with Fred. haha!
I am so lucky! My husband, though not rabid like me, goes to every concert, wears a Hawaiian shirt, waves his arms and sings along. He patiently waits while I try to see Al afterwards and he thinks Kristine's photo of Al singing that I'm absolutely perfect ( don't speak, now I might spoil it) is frame-worthy (it is, but not because of me, it's just a darn good photo!) and wants to hang it in the living room. Great guy.

While my hubby calls him my boyfriend - he's pretty good about me and the kids being rabid fans. We try not to overwhelm him with the music, videos and UHF...
He does admit that Al is clearly a genius and extremely talented - I just can't pull him into fan status.
As I've said before, hubby is not a fan. Last night, after seeing Al's brief yet sweet cameo on The Simpsons, he sarcastically said "Wow, that's what you waited all day for?"
