Even though it's incredibly dated by now, I'd love to hear Headline News again. I Lost on Jeopardy and Midnight Star are also classics we haven't heard in years. Maybe Living in the Fridge. Franks 2000' TV would also be great, and actually pretty timely these days given the rise in massively over sized television sets. I also think the summer tour would bring back the Food Medley. I would guess though that unless he's planning to do a lot of dates, we may end up seeing a lot of recycled material from the last tour.

Actually I think Frank's 2000" TV is a little dated now for the reasons you stated. There actually are 2000" TVs...

I'd have to go with Craigslist or Skipper Dan from "Internet Leaks", but I'd also like to see "I Was Only Kidding" (in my opinion, one of the best Al originals) to take the place of "Melanie" or "One More Minute". Also it'd be awesome to see "Bohemian Polka" because it's unlikely that he's recorded the new one and it'd be lame if he did "Polkarama" again.

One song that I've always wanted to hear live is "Nature Trail to Hell (in 3D)". I know the chances of this are virutally nill, unless you get a date that is on or very near Halloween. So, while I would like to hear it, I know better. Another couple songs I wouldn't mind hearing are "King of Suede" and "Gotta Boogie".
