Yes, I have noticed this also. He does appear a little different-looking and "normal"
Either way, he still looks good!!

I agree with everyone else. Al is a funny guy, but he's also a father and husband and an all around normal guy. When I met him, he was just as normal as anyone else.

I noticed that too, especially at the Glen Allen concert when he came out just before the encore and was just talking to the audience, thanking us for being there and apologizing for the "technical glitches" involved with the first concert of the tour. It felt like he was just talking to a group of friends, very relaxed and casual.

From the many times I've seen him during shows, I think he focuses VERY much on the show/performance itself and doesn't let himself be easily distracted by the audience.
I've seen onstage slips, falls, people attempting to jump up on stage, once getting hit in the face with a (soft) cap an overly enthusiastic fan tossed at him, Al just keeps on truckin'.
Once the show is over, he can relax a little. If you look at the very end wave at the end of WAY Live, you can see it.

It seems that at the end of the show, Al goes from making all of us smile, to us making him smile. At the very end of the last song, you just see his face change totally, like he is taking off a mask. And before or after the show he is just a quiet, "normal" guy.

i guess Al's mood will change. i mean he must be enjoying himself on stage and giveing a great show(and 1 of these days i will totaly find out what i am talking about,lol, i got to laugh at myself on that 1).then after the show he must be relaxed after the show. so that he can have time to himself, to enjoy life

I think you're right. I'm sure he's pretty well tired out after a show.
