I've never been in a Weird Al concert before, now my dad bought two tickets so I can't wait to see him live. BTW, I'm a "Wii hater".

Wow awesome. You should try to meet up with some of the other forum members while you're there. It would be good to prove you are a real person.

Another fun show. If the guys were at all out of practice after their month-and-a-little off, I sure didn't notice.

When I was picking up my tickets, I asked (because I didn't remember) "Is either of these an aisle seat?" She said, "No, but we have one... in the first row." So I surrendered mine, bought the first-row. Woot! And then I turned out to be sitting next to Dave & Jackie. No way am I going to the casino, I've already had my full day's allotment of luck right there.

It is so much fun to watch an Al show close up. You can see all the subtle facial expressions, and little stuff like Al holding his palm up & flexing his fingers as though holding the ripped out beating heart from CNR. And I was right in front of Jim, so I could watch his fingers fly. Amazing. He had posted on Facebook that he was going to be depending on muscle memory since this was the first show after the time off... all I can say is, his muscles have a prodigious memory. The front rows of this show were filled with die-hard, sing-along fans, which always makes it more fun.

I think I'll get breakfast tomorrow at the establishment where the snotty barista works, the Starbucks on East Craig Road. It's right across the street. I'm hoping to get a really early start and beat the traffic back to LA. Kind of a flying trip, but I saw a great show and got to visit a bit with a lot of friends (thanks for opening your home, Kelley!)

I'm guessing there were no changes at all in the set list from the July shows?

Wow, cool stroke of luck getting offered that first row aisle seat! Although I think I would have tried the casino just to see if my luck was continuing... :D
