One of my very first posts from page 1 of this thread...

At the very first Al show I went to, in Albany, NY (feb 4, 2000. I had a front row aisle seat. I went not knowing what to expect aside from an evening of darn fine entertainment. Anyway, not only did Al sing my favorite song of his (One More Minute), but he sang the "shards of broken glass" verse on my lap. He just stole my heart away. I didn't even know he put a scarf around my neck until halfway through the next song. The whole show was so much more than I expected -- it was a life-changing epiphany. In the 2 months following that show I bought all his CDs (didn't have any before) and made it my goal to meet him before year's end.

nice memory

Wow. I can't believe it's been 3 years since Albany already... and I still haven't written my review! :lookround:

Congrats on the nice memory.

Thanks everyone.

Dave, it's been 4 years.

Another thing that I remember clearly about this specific concert was that Al didn't do SLN or Free Delivery because he had a sore throat. All that screaming would've aggravated it more. But, this was my first concert and I had no idea what to expect from the setlist, so I was happy. Ignorance is bliss.

I liked Yoda in the SOL tour. Because everyone was singing, Al let the audience sing a line ("Everybody!"), and then bent down and said "Only You" to some kid!
We couldn't hear the kid even though Al was holding the mic for him, but it was still hilarious. The band kept playing so they could contiue with the song.

At the concert at Westbury, Al yelled at a couple who got up during Albuquerque. Funny as hell, you can see it on youtube if you search for "Weird Al Westbury"
