Based on those clips alone, this looks like it's gonna be my favorite Al concert special. I can't quite put my finger on it, there's just something really aesthetically pleasing about the way this is shot and edited that simply wasn't quite there in There's No Going Home or "Weird Al" Yankovic Live. The Wayne Isham touch, I suppose.

And how cool is it to FINALLY have an official video-of-sorts for "Canadian Idiot" after five freakin' years? That was the one song from SOL I always thought REALLY deserved a video, but never got one.

I really like seeing Party in the CIA but i see this being cuz once he is done with all the Alpocalypse promotion. It seems like a hard song to sing.

But they all look good in their suits. Al should get a role in the new Men In Black lol

I also really like how this was shot. This looks like some really legit, professional looking concert footage. This looks like it should be shown in 3D at your local movie theater. Wayne Isham is a truly talented director, it seems. I'm sure he's earned his reputation. I won an Amazon gift card recently and I am definitely putting it toward this. I've actually heard some interest in regards to a screening of this in my dorm.

It looks so freakin' good! I had a post about the screen because it was really awkward and mostly just filmed close up footage in "Weird Al Live"- but this is incredible! Next week is too far away!

This looks amazing. A very strong performance of Party in the CIA for Al.

Looks and sounds great!! Love how the audience can be heard cheering loudly after nearly every line in Canadian Idiot.

Actually, I've caught three tonight. The first features "Perform This Way" "Fat," and 'Polka Face." Another shows "Canadian Idiot," "Polka Face," and "Smells Like Nirvana." The third one highlights only 'Smells Like Nirvana." I'll add these three onto YouTube at some time in some way in the future maybe.

Comedy Central On Demand has also added a new section: "Weird Beats," with clips stand-up who incorporate music in their act. Most of these clips also feauture the second commercial I just described above.
