I picked this up today on a bit of a splurge. Comedy Central is showing this to help promote the release. It wasn't that expensive here at $13.

The concert is on CC so is it worth the buy?

The Medley that got cut from the boadcast is probably worth the price alone. He does Money for Nothing, Whatever You Like, Another Tattoo, eBay, I Want A New Duck, Theme From Rocky XIII, Spam, My Bologna, Ode to a Superhero, Lasagna, and Eat It.

Wanna B Ur Lovr is awesome too.

In the Chat it was asked what the Encore was. Well I'll tell you.

The Saga Begins, Yoda.

There are also 3 bonus songs added that were taken out of the DVD's final cut. Who knows why, I'd like them to be in their proper places. Isn't the point of a concert DVD to see EVERY song in the order it's done? I digress...

These bonus songs are You Make Me, You Don't Love Me Anymore, and one of my all time favorites Frank's 2000" TV.

Total concert time is at or near 2 hours.

The concert took place in Massey Hall, Toronto, ON on July 16, 2011. I was up there a month earlier for another concert, and passed on seeing Al live this time around. I don't think I'll be doing that again.

Finally the DVD contains 2 music videos. "Perform This Way" and "Polka Face".

Speaking of, Lady Gaga just handed him a song on a silver platter with Poker Face.

I'm a huge Weird Al fan so I say go get this Smile

I saw the CC broadcast and thoroughly enjoyed it.

Have to say that I don't like Weird Al much anymore, but his shows are really entertaining.


So here's to you Mrs. Robinson. People love you more- oh, nevermind.

I was actually kind of disappointed with the CC broadcast, I like Al, don't get me wrong and I really want to see him when he comes back to Syracuse, but the show they had was mediocre in my opinion.
