Question about Touring With Scissours tour - Pretty Fly

Post by RunningWithScissors »

So I know this board is fairly dead but something has always bothered me and for some reason I just now thought about asking...

I saw al for the first time on Feb 9th 2000 when I was in Junior High. Got the tickets for Christmas as well as the VHS of the tour. (Wish I would have known to wait to watch that but anyway)

Most accounts that I've seen including the Setlist.fm of my night says he pretty much played the same setlist as on the video, all the time (Plus the tour only songs not on the VHS, and Beverly Hillbillies and Addicted to Spuds that was in the middle.)

But....

I mean it's been 25 years, my mind is kind of foggy, But... I am almost positive that when it got to the melody, I was really confused because... he skipped Pretty Fly For A Rabbi? ... But while that memory is fuzzy, what I remember clear as day was saying to my sister (Who bought the tickets and took me) "I don't know why he didn't play that, it was on the VHS! ... But at least I got Beverly Hillbillies and Addicted To Spuds." And my sister following up with, "Yeah I'm surprised he didn't play it either."

So I was just curious, not my show in particular, (because Setlist.fm says what all the others say) but... does anyone remember any show/hearing anything about that being skipped for some reason? At this point I feel dumb for asking but... it really seems like it got skipped that night.

(Was awesome though.)
