Awesome show! Arrived at the venue around 8 pm and ran into Moonbeam and Megan in the parking lot-found out that their seats were right next to ours! That made the show a million times better!
Saw Steve and Jim after the show, so that was cool. Can't wait for tonights show!

Yes, but how full was the venue?
"Weird Al" has a charisma that's all his own. The awkward, the misshapen, the socially inept flock to his banner.

the seats were really close to each other, there wasn't a bad seat in the whole place, I had row 2 off to the side, no one took the front center row so I moved up there, it was the best Al concert I have been to so far.

It sure looked full during cell phones, so i dunno if there was a lot of late arrivals or what, becasue it looked like a lot more people were there when I looked during Cell Phones, verses the begining of the show. About 3/4 full though.

This show was AWESOME! I had front row center, I handed out cookies, said Hi to Steve in the parking lot... (I also took the "H" off the marquee... they mispelt Al's name)

But the best/craziest thing was, after the tour bus left, we left to look for gas. We found a station selling it for $3.93 a gallon, and we look to the right and there is the bus fillin' up. I went inside for some soda and Steve came in and said Hi! again.... We then followed the bus to the Interstate, and went home. :whoot:

$3.93? No wonder the bus filled up there. I can't imagine what the gas bill looks like when they fill that thing up... sheesh. That's cool that you got to say hi again.
