World of Weird Al Yankovic

It's a pretty nice speculation, but there needs to be maybe one more song for the CNR section. I was thinking Al could move Canadian Idiot to the medley and put Party In The CIA or something else new in its place.

One thing I've noticed is that Al usually puts the new lead single in the setlist right before Fat. I guess it's supposed to keep the audience on their toes and surprise them.

If he wants to do something short & easy like instead "Hog", I think "Mr. Frump" might be the best thing.

...unless he decides to do "Harvey the Wonder Hamster".

OneWAY, I was also thinking there should be something added to the CNR section, something for Hog (or its replacement) to go between. Not sure what that would be, but I definitely think Canadian will go to the medley. I know the tradition is for Perform This Way to go right before Fat, but I intentionally put it one slot earlier because I still think White & Nerdy will be the real showstopper performance. I have no idea what to expect from the live version of Perform This Way but it's certainly possible that he will follow tradition rather than put it where I suggested. Keep in mind, both White & Nerdy and Couch Potato were moved all around the setlist before finally ending up in the proper place.

Where else was White & Nerdy? I know he did some toying with the setlist in AUS at the beginning of the tour, but I always thought White & Nerdy was between Amish and Fat right from the get-go. Hmmm I'm curious...

Yeah, but it's one franchise getting two songs. You never see that from Al. I think that it would be reasonable for him to keep the encore like that simply for its historical factor. It's also Star Wars, so that's what one would call a nerd bonus.

The guys said when they did Yoda and TSB in the middle of the set on the last tour, it just didnt feel right. I dont see them ever moving again, or being split up. Especially since theye share a costume.

Yes they actually did that on the Lynwood tour, I thought it was odd, I thought it was too early to end the set, but they kept going, and it was nice having albuquerque and cellpones for an encore, I'd actually like to see that again!

The previous tour was in support of "The Essential WAY" and I guess this has become the "Alpocalypse" tour. I assume that DTBS, Franks2000"TV/You Make Me, You Don't Love Me Anymore/Good Old Days & You're Pitiful (4 song spots) are the ones which will be changed out for new material. I can't imagine why he would be tempted to drop Skipper Dan.. that's not logical at all. All the "traditional" numbers are surely safe

I wouldn't hold my breath on Al rearranging this setlist to include any new material from "Alpocalypse" this early, but if he decided to go all out with it...this is what I'm predicting (after careful consideration of course)

Polka Face
You Make Me (alternate: Good Old Days)
TMZ
Smells Like Nirvana
Skipper Dan
Another Tattoo
Dare To Be Stupid
C.N.R.
If That Isn’t Love
Craigslist
Wanna B Ur Lovr
Medley:
Money For Nothing/Beverly Hillbillies, Whatever You Like, Ebay, Party In The CIA, Canadian Idiot, Bedrock Anthem, Another One Rides The Bus, Ode To A Superhero, Trapped In The Drive-Thru, Gump, Eat It
Amish Paradise
White & Nerdy
Perform This Way
Fat
Cell Phones
The Saga Begins
Yoda

Some of you may be a bit disappointed if he decided to remove the rotating classic/Twitter request songs in favor of new parodies, but I could honestly see it happening.

I'd love to see that setlist! That looks awesome, I wouldn't have any problems with that set although thats alot of unreleased material to be doing before the album comes out. This seems like what should be the actual Alpocalypse Tour Setlist when it picks up in September and the albums out. Nature Trail To Hell would be so cool at the end, very fitting for the Alpocalypse Tour as someone mentioned before. I don't know if he'll remove the alternate ballad, Bermuda and Steve get a nice break during You Don't Love Me Anymore and Good Old Days is simple enough for everybody. It would be great to see both the alternate ballad and classic original alternate song still there for the warm up Tour at least.
