Yeah, I also noticed he skipped that verse. Cut for time, maybe?

Wow that performance sucked. Nickelodeon wasn't very generous.

I did notice the missing verse and forgot to mention it when I was posting here. Thanks for the reminder. And not to harsh you, TMBJon!, but NO Al performance ever sucks. It may not be up to top ALNESS but it simply does not suck. Al gave it all he could. I'm sure he was dealing with time constraints as well as censors, which we already know what part they played. I totally enjoyed the way the boys performed, as I always do.

Al and the band were great but the actual... I dunno, the cuts to cartoons and random shots of superheroes in conjunction with that ridiculous host... I'm just glad I watched the MPG and didn't suffer thru the rest of the show.

I think Jon means that Nick made the performance worse by doing all those stupid cuts during the performance.

Ok, Ok, point taken. Like I said, I wasn't harshing him anyway, but I get what yer saying now.

QUOTE Al gave it all he could. I'm sure he was dealing with time constraints as well as censors, which we already know what part they played.

Don't forget, this was filmed right after the FIRST week of the tour. You remember the first week don't you? The Konocti Windy Concert of Doom, and the Vegas show where the instruments BARELY showed up in time. Bermuda said just 30 minutes before the show, if I heard correctly.

Maybe Al should just call the first week the "second week"... sometimes it works.

Poor Al...actually, I hadn't noticed the cut verse until you mentioned it...

..kinda embarassed about that...<ahem>..but moving on...The sound quality was poor, but WHOSE FAULT WAS THAT?!?! NOT AL!!

Anyway, good points about the TiVo line...I guess the Richard Simmons innuendo was TOO MUCH for those kooky Nick censors...but they did pick Al out of how many musical artists???? :biggrin: Yeah it was corny, but its ok with me...

ttyl all

Well, they could've picked Candy Boy and Half Dollar, but the censors would have had a heart attack.
