Just got an email from my cousin, apparently this is confirmed, but not on WA.com. It's a close show and on a Friday!!

Tickets are only $32, what a bargain! I'll be there.

I'll be here. Glad that Al is going back to the House of Blues. It is a much more enjoyable environment than the last performance at the Hilton. The Hilton was the land of the pathetic ushers.

Hilton was cool, I self upgraded to front row center. Ushers sucked all the way up until they didn't ask to see my ticket when we got in. I like HoB because upstairs is usually pretty empty so you can sit wherever. Also it was my first backstage trip 4 years ago. And I got some posters from the bathroom. I may have a big crew for this because it's a cheaper venue. I know my cousin will be there, I may add Eva and the wife for this one. Hopefully they announce a keswick around this date so I can make a better decision. I want to take Robin and Eva to show 27, and I know she won't go to 2 shows.

Well, yeah...I guess if you self-upgrade yourself...you don't have to worry about rules at any place. As Dave, not Elvis, had said it was the typical AC show type, give me money-get better seat.

BTW, this show is now official on Al's site.

Too bad it's seated and not general admission. I like GA shows better cause you can buy tickets whenever, all you have to do is show up the day of the show early to get a good spot.

It's seated? At the House of Blues?

That's got to be a mistake. Unless theyve added seats to downstairs which seems weird

I'm basing that according to the AL website pre-sale, they put out folding chairs downstairs for some shows. The last two years (08 and 07) didn't have them though. I'm confused.

Well, I think it just comes down to a case of Wanna B Ur Lovr's allowance. It has seemed lately that they have really been looking out for this song. At the Pittsburgh concert, there was standing room, but they made us vacate the middle aisle all the way up to the stage. So, that if Al wanted to, he could jump down and do the Lovr schtick.
