Well they did it Polka style before, I figured they'd be pulling out more covers from polkas, and for some reason I wouldn't expect this one. Generally it's a cover of a band that influenced them. It's cool when they do a cover of a band they influenced, and weird at the same time!
What a racket they're makin', Jack, they keep me up at night playin' their electric guitars!!

Tonight's set will be twice as good though. Nobody is more lucky than those who get to attend two shows in one city because they will not repeat anything except for the mandatory medley. More deep cuts tonight.

That is seriously my dream setlist, All-Star included. Wish I could have been there.

Tonight Al started the encore with a story of how he's had an issue with The Who for more than 40 years because they recorded a song called Squeezebox that didn't feature any accordion. Al fixed that

He also told a story before OMM I hadn't heard. Back in the mid 80s Al lip sync'ed the song on one of Dick Clark's specials but ABC objected to the lyric "I'd rather clean all the bathrooms in Grand Central Station with my tongue..." So they aired "I'd rather clean all the bathrooms in Grand Central Station with my [bleep]!"
