What's the point of that? If they're going to be on the DVD anyway, why not just leave them with the rest of the concert?

:don't get it: Um... That's weird.
Anyway, it looks like, the special features may be the same on both the Blu-Ray and the DVD.

If those three songs are the special features than the concert itself must have all the other songs in the set. Especially if its 90 mins long, which is the only time I can find anywhere.

Yeah, I decided to check that Amazon page today on a whim and was going to post that update...but it looks like someone beat me to it already. I just think "extra live performances" really means that those songs will be left where they were in the show but they will only be shown on the DVD/Blu Ray and cut from the Comedy Central airing.
With that in mind, here's my new prediction for the Comedy Central edit...
Polka Face, TMZ, Smells Like Nirvana, Skipper Dan, Party In The CIA, CNR, Canadian Idiot, Wanna B Ur Lovr, Amish Paradise, Craigslist, Perform This Way, White and Nerdy, Fat, The Saga Begins, Yoda
At first I thought that the medley may not be included because they didn't name it as a "special feature", but they did say it was 90 minutes in length so I'm still thinking it would be on the DVD, just not on Comedy Central.
Here's some good news that nobody has mentioned yet. We now know that the concert DVD will include the PTW/Polka Face videos. I'm sure it was implied elsewhere and at least PF was a given from reading that press release but it's still nice to have some actual confirmation. No word yet on the SOL parody videos, but I guess there's one less reason to buy Alpocalypse HD if you don't have a Blu Ray player.
Also mentioned as special features are "a bunch of Al's personal YouTube videos" and "other cool junk." I noticed someone mentioned seeing Al in front of a green screen shooting something for post production and I'm going to go out on a limb and say that those are interstitial bits meant to set up those clips.

They better not cut Hog out of the DVD, or anything from the medley, I'll be very upset! Theres no way the SOL videos would be on the live DVD, I would love to see White & Nerdy on there at least but since he's doing the Blu-Ray thing its obvious they wont be included. PTW and Polka Face would be a sure thing of course.

Makes very little sense to take out those two songs and make it "bonus" content.

The only thing I can figure out is that they just wanted Alpocalypse songs in the starting set before the costume changes.
Where did you find the back cover at josey?
