WDTAHTM instead of Bob.

No confetti during Albuquerque because they warned ME not to stand in front of the cannons but failed to mention it to the guy at the other end of the stage...  they did shoot them off as the crowd was leaving, though. 

The theatre was lovely (and freezing!), security allowed cameras without flashes, the crowd was great... did I leave anything out?  The people behind me were first timers who drove five hours to get to the show and told me afterward it was well worth the drive.  There were some really fun women across the aisle who were really into the show, they were almost as entertaining as Al himself.
Oh My G**!


Wow Nancy. I am seriously jealous :whoot:

If you saw a bunch of 12 year olds running to get the graffiti...that was my friends an I.... :D

my dad found some Yankobucks on the stage, then as we were waiting for Al to come out((which he did...in a really tiny limo...)) this lady had like 10 and gave some to my friends who didnt get any. :)

to save space in my pockets I put all paper items in the case for Compleat Al...sounds stupid but it worked and kept my Yankobuck and ticket flat... :P

Wow, Nancy, two lines from Al during WBUL! Awesome! I'm hoping the fact that I'm going to be front row center helps in that regard on Friday. *I can't believe it's so close!* I'm glad cameras were allowed, and it's always fun to see other fans really into it. I hope I don't scare my friend, who will be an Al show virgin.

:D
4 words that Al said to me that blew me away:

"How's Problem Child doing?" - 7/12/11

So awesome!

Great pics, Allison! I thought I saw you run past me before the show.

Patti, you can't go wrong with front row center. I was not in the center in DC, though, I was off to the side.

Alison, I told you this on your myspace, but I really like those pictures.

Nancy, that still sounds like a good location. Obviously, it worked out for you. :)

I can't wait!!

Anywhere else but Washington DC, that would just be a donut. But in DC, it's a punny donut. Because there really is a marionberry.

As well as a Marion Barry.

And a Marion Berry.

And for you Berry completists, Marian Berry.
"Weird Al" has a charisma that's all his own. The awkward, the misshapen, the socially inept flock to his banner.
