Gary Coleman died right? Macho Man too. This is a tough year for celebs.

Coleman was last year, but don't worry...there's always new celebrities dying every day! :)
You have quickly thought up such matchless phrase?

Not going to this show. Hate to pass up hearing Al say 'Hello Huntington', but I'd rather be in Huntington, WV this night. It's our biggest performance on our awesome college field of the year, with the stands jam packed, and it's the last time that I'll be able to do it since I'm a senior, so I'm not going to pass it up. Not even for Al! :oo

What do you perform in college?

I'm in the Marshall University Marching Thunder, which is my college's marching band. I play trombone, and this year, I'm going to be our section leader, since I have been around the longest. So, I probably shouldn't miss our biggest performance of the year, well at our home field. The biggest performance we have this year is Halftime of a Pittsburgh Steelers game. But, that doesn't conflict with any shows. Even if it did, it would be a show that I couldn't go to anyway out in the west.

It's just stuff like this that really makes me hate the fact that Al's touring in the fall. There's nothing at all to conflict with in the summer. Everything is SO much easier than a fall tour. And I'm sure some of you are thinking, "Wait until you get in the real world, where you have a job, sonny...". Well, I'm going to be a teacher, so I'll still have summers off, then! :P

The theatre's website is http://www.paramountny.com" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

So, they do have a website. Although, they haven't listed the Al show yet. They just have a Pixies show up.

i did buy 1 seat from paid inc as it says only 1st row is for sale for paid inc buyers so i paid the scalped prices for this show & the beacon as the beacon is usually hard to get a good seat for.

41 year old mom here. Love Weird Al. Saw him in Atlantic City last summer with my 10 yr. old daughter. Fantastic , most fun I've ever had at ANY concert by far. Just saw this date in October, I'm in dutchess county NY. This appears to be only about 2 hours away. Was just wondering about the traffic, heading down there on a Saturday. Don't know the area. I hope we can go!! I saw someone else talking about the fees they tack on to ticket costs. I can't afford to go to too many shows and it is so expensive. Took my daughter to a concert last week. A 56 dollar show turned into a 76 dollar show. Grrrrrr. but what can we do? Weird Al Rocks!!
