I was there; this was a GREAT concert. The Pikes Peak Center has a spectacular sound system and, since I was in the 5th row, I could see the band very closely - except for Bermuda, who was hiding behind his drum kit. Great set and medley. Did anyone else from the forums make it?

I wasn't there, but that was basically my view at the last Al concert I went to as well. I sort of wished they would flash him up on the big screen for a few minutes so I could get a look. :D

Good, that jacket made no sense being worn for WYL and AT.

He DID perform Frank's 2000" TV just after the polka and before TMZ. No YDLMA, Good Old Days, or You Make Me though. He played all but 3 songs from the new album (If That Isn't Love, Stop Forwarding That Crap to Me, and Ringtone. WYL and Another Tattoo were in the medley). The Medley also contained most of Beverly Hillbillies, I want a New Duck, My Bologna, Spam, and Theme From Rocky XIII. GREAT show.

Hmm, I saw the setlist from Puyallup last week where they played You Make Me and I don't know why they wouldn't just play both of them instead of just Frank's or the other, it fills out the set alot better and without Frank's then theres NOTHING from Alapalooza and thats not that cool. Really, they should be doing all three like they did for the DVD, and Hog too 'cause alot of people are gonna feel a bit ripped off, but whatever. I gotta say I feel bad for anyone who wanted to see them and can only see one.
