[quote=Sedai]My perspective during the Monkees set was "Get me out of here, and FAST." 

Luckily, Al had played already.[/quote]

[quote=Austruck][quote=Sedai]I saw Al back in the late 80s with...jeez, I want to say The Monkees??[/quote]
Yes! He did tour with the Monkees (or, they with him, depending on your perspective) back then! :)[/quote]

[quote=Iroquois]I've seen Al live twice in fifteen years and the second time was over a decade ago now - as I recall, his last tour date here was a good few years ago and in a festival lineup to boot. That was disappointing but what can you do. Twice is better than never and both shows were great, especially the latter because he did "Albuquerque".[/quote]

[quote=Austruck][quote=doubledenim][font=century gothic]I always memba' WA from the 80's and 90's. I always thought he was neat.

Then I started hearing all of these comedians talk about him. And rave about him. And see how many tickets he sold for his tours.

Wowza. It must really be somethin'.[/font][/quote]
Multimedia craziness. Costume changes all over the place. GREAT fun for all ages. And he IS an all-around nice guy in real life. Courteous to fans and other artists alike. It's no coincidence he's been doing this for 40 years and is stronger than ever. (He's getting his own star on the Walk of Fame on August 27, finally!)[/quote]

[quote=doubledenim][font=century gothic]We have had a lot of rain recently. Rain brings mushrooms. Mushrooms that the dogs love to eat.

Unfortunately we don't have cows.[/font][/quote]

[quote=Austruck]You never go wrong with "Weird Al" Yankovic tickets. Even the friend I dragged to one of the last times he toured admitted that it was probably one of the best put-on concerts she'd seen. He's a workhorse and SO entertaining!  :)[/quote]

[quote=Miss Vicky][quote=doubledenim][font=century gothic]There are probably 3, non-comedy acts that I would buy tickets for nowadays.[/font][/quote]

At this point there's really only one act that I'm willing to shell out the money for and he's it. Most of my favorites I've already seen at least once and AFAIK aren't touring anyway. The only (former) favorite that's on tour now is Fleetwood Mac, but since they fired Buckingham they can KMA.[/quote]

[quote=doubledenim][quote=Miss Vicky]I just bought Lindsey Buckingham tickets! FIFTH ROW BABY! Can't wait.[/quote]
