Wait, were you in the third row right in front of the steps?


Oh yeah, Ill review.got there around 540 and right away found Nancy, so we talked for a few minutes, then she went to dinner with a friend and I had dinner with Dana. The rest of the gang sort of filtered in after we finished our meal, so I spent some time talking to James, Dave and Jackie. After that we went to the theater and found our seats. My second row seats ended up being first row was I was on the aisle right next to the steps. Killed some time with Nancy and James and Jeremy before the show. Then I met Michael Lestatkatt, who is a member here but rarely posts. Most of you know him as the guy who made the Ultiamte Collection, and seems to find just about every Al rarity. The show was awesome as always. I was trying to get shots of Jon during Craigslist, then I noticed Al singing right to me, so I switched to him. After the show we all met by the bus and they had us form a line right away which was odd. I had Al sign my picture of me and him (him and I, good grammers important) from Rehoboth. I asked him if we'd ever get Eat It full again by switching it out with Fat, he said itd be too hard to add it in the medley. He could do it costumless, but I guess it wont happen. After we all got pics we headed over to the crew bus and took a group photo, sans Nancy, After we had 10 shots or so done Nancy walked up followed by Bermuda, so we got to talk to him for a bit. All in all it was a good show. Sad that its the last one for me, but next summer isnt too far away, and of course Miss Eva Rose will be joining her daddy on tour chasing next year, so that'll be fun

Mike, thanks so much for keeping us all up to date with the latest from this summer. Really enjoyed following your adventures... and now you get to live the life of the rest of us and read all details about everyone ELSE's concert experiences!

BTW- Hoping for full reviews from both Alicia and Shelley (though I know you two are gonna be busy for quite a while...)

Quick random question before I forget to ask it again: When did the Cher video clip leave? I recall it in Atlantic City, but I don't think it was in for Westbury and was looking for it last night. I know they change up the videos between songs depending on how much time they need for costume changes, so I guess that one was giving them too much down time. I can't think that something NEW was put in, just this one cut.

So nerdy. I love it.

Left around 5:00 and got stuck in traffic so started txting Mike about alternate routes I should have taken. Finally showed up around 6:30 and pulled up behind Dave. Waved hi, but ran to get dinner before the show started (pretty hungry). Talked to Dana and Mike, saw Adrian's gang but decided not to interrupt their dinner. Headed to the venue, found Jeremy and grabbed a Weird Al Program for the show. Show started promptly at 8, turns out Dave and Jackie had seats right next to me. Combo was Franks And YDLMA. Great show as usual, forgot to bounce on the first Fat jump.

After show, meet and greet had a huge line, but The Wowayer's formed a giant blob in the middle of it. Signing only, no posing for pics. A friend i brought with me gave Al the UHF laserdisc cover to sign and he remarked "Suzanne made me get rid of all my laserdiscs cause there all on DVD." I walked up with the Compleat AL on laserdisc immediately after and he said "Well I guess not ALL of them." Great show, gonna try to make it to Asbury on Sunday, if not, great seeing everybody! summer 2011, can't wait!
You guys were all right behind me the entire half hour or so we were waiting for the meet and greet. I recognized Dana and one of the others (don't really know names of people). Was debating on if I should come back or not.

All in all, it was a great night. Sadly, we got stuck in the horrible Philly traffic on the way out and walked in during the video segments leading into Smells Like Nirvana. Reasoning being that someone was supposed to come with us, and screwed up plans. My friend thought it was less of a drive out there, and wanted to leave at 7:30. I was like, "It takes 45 minutes to drive there, latest we should leave is 6:30, considering traffic." We did leave early enough but traffic was brutal.

But, from the part of the show I got to see, it was great. Granted it was my first Al show. Didn't bring anything to get signed, as I was uncertain of if A.) There'd be a meet and greet, and B.) I was uncertain if my friend would want to wait the extra time to go through it. But we got a great spot in line so I ended up just getting my ticket signed.

Mike, I can't wait to meet Eva Rose! Sorry you won't be joining us tomorrow night.

The highlight of the show for me was Al putting Dana on the spot during Yoda - she handled it beautifully!

That was Dana during Yoda? Pretty cool.

Got some decent pictures from the show. Loved Al in the audience for WBUL. Had some kids near me, first show for them as well, screaming non-stop, etc.
