Probably two things: that song puts a ton of stress on his voice, and he's adding a song from the album.

And no one remembers who Charlie Sheen is, and he can't think of a new visual punchline :P

I'm so happy Atlantic Records nixed that parody or we would never have White and Nerdy. I wonder why he chose to remove that song and not another one and why he announced it.

I think Kristine's right about the voice strain and the need to use that slot for a newer song. But also it's a song that he can't make any money from. Ah well, it had a good run.

Wow, this backstage dressing room is more "rock 'n' roll" than I'm used to - no shower, but they have a "used needles" depository. #true
:o

I think it's time for Al to start putting that "no brown M&M's" clause in his tour rider. I wonder, though... do they have no showers, period, or since the rider specifies separate dressing rooms for Al, band and crew, maybe the band or the crew got the showers?

I believe the venue can say they don't have showers and it will be run by Als management. I doubt that some of these old theatres he plays have facilities

The really dumb thing here is that the casino has a hotel! Couldn't they have just shuttled him to an unused hotel room? After 2+ hours of the kind of show Al puts on, a shower is hardly optional.

I realize Al has more songs to fill fewer slots every time he tours for a new album, but I still hope we get a new concert-only song with the new tour to take the place of YP.
