Believe it. Yes, he did play in New Hampshire, but no, he didn't play close enough to the Dingo.

He's been to Hawaii. Does that count?

Believe it.

Being without a car sucks, and makes it just about impossible to get somewhere that is 1 1/2 or 2 hours away. There's no bus or train service to get to the shows, either.

I wish there were a way to bring a show close enough for the Dingo to get to. Franklin Pierce University is nearby...do they have an auditorium?

Has Al ever played in Maryland?

The thing that I like least about Al is when puts cruel, morbid, or adult jokes in his songs. At least according to Allmusic, Al's songs are based towards 11-year-olds.

Al played Baltimore twice on the last tour. Seeing him at Rams Head was terrible because it was standing room. When he performed on the pier it was awesome.

I'm serious. It's downright unnerving. He's the only one of my heroes in the entertainment business whom I've NEVER heard utter even the occasional s- or f-bomb.

It may not seem like a big deal to you, but as Chris Rock said, "Show me a grown man who's never said 's**t' and I'll show you a man who's FULL of s**t."
Well, there probably IS a man in the world who's full of feces.

I don't like about Al that he still didn't do a tour in NL or Europe. Well, of course that's not Al's fault but his record label and obviously this record label is not even trying to get Al known in Europe. Well, they used to try (by playing the "Angry White Boy Polka" over and over again on big national radio stations) but they forgot to put the album in the shops :blink:

And I envy Al because he's really a genius when it comes to making music. In my opinion, Al is as special as Beethoven, Chopin, Mozart, The Beatles, Buddy Holly, Elvis, Brian Wilson, Nirvana, Rolling Stones. People/Bands who actually made a change in music by "creating" new styles/music in a way that simply cannot be followed.

My least favorite thing about Al is that he can be really funny by just talking, but during concerts, he never really says anything funny, and every concert is fairly identical.

Only on WOWAY could there be a thread called "Your LEAST Favorite Thing About Al" in which Weird Al is compared to Mozart and The Beatles.

Not that I disagree... :S
