Wife and I are patiently waiting for this show as it will be our first. Things haven't worked out the past several times he has came to town. Now im starting to worry I won't get my tickets. Show is a week away and I've not heard a thing about our presale tickets being shipped. :( Anyone else?

Yea, i got them monday in the mail. Four days before is a bit later than im used to getting ticket in the mail. But again, the show was announced only 3 weeks before the date, so that may have had something to do with it.

Wow... from what I understand, this is far from the first time this has happened to Al... but it's just very odd to watch. Amazing how they still didn't seem to miss a beat. The guy Al asked to sing made sure of that.

Good to see Al recovered nicely; it didn't seem to have phased him terribly, considering he still was able to pick it up so quickly and continue finishing the show. Trooper Al!

The guy Al wanted to sing wasn't up against the stage, and Al slipped when he stepped down to reach him. He bounced right up, as you can see in the video clip.

Al and I are about the same age. If I took that fall, I'd be pretty sore today! Hope he's not feeling any pain now.

The show was terrific, by the way. Rotating songs were Frank's and YDLMA. Very entertaining storm troopers!! The crowd stood for the entire encore - I love when that happens.

Does anyone else think they're running through the Chant a little faster than normal? Talk about adrenaline rush... Al's heart rate no doubt spiked after that.
