I am very embarassed by Bedrock Anthem and when i listen to any cd featureing it I turn the volume down.Flinstones may be popular with the generation before mine but I am still embarassed.

And I really don`t like men without shirts even though it`s a manly thing.

Plus the others sounded much BETTER because Al`s voice has changed over the years

And they all sounded better than the album but there still good in album format.Because 1.al`s voice is now different.2.They don`t have the same istruments makeing it sound different [ex:guitar duet in beginning of Nirvana]

I like "Bedrock Anthem" far too much to ask it to leave "the island". I voted for "Amish Paradise" instead, because while "Bedrock Anthem" is the only song from Alapalooza that's a full-length concert regular, "Amish Paradise" shares Bad Hair Day with a few others (i.e. "Gump", and "The Night Santa Went Crazy"). I'd rather lose a goodie like "Amish Paradise" than let Alapalooza go unrepresented.

Don't even kid about that silver suit being gone with Scotti. She almost had a heart attack. ;)


Oh believe me, "Pentiums" would literally be last on my list of songs for Al to do away with in concert...it's one of my all-time favorites of his!



The silver-suit is cool, too. I guess....

I think we can pretty much assume that "Gump" is getting bumped to the medley this tour (if it's in the setlist at all) and "Santa" has a good chance of being replaced since it's one of those "early, no-costume" songs mentioned elsewhere.

No, please don't get rid of "Santa"! My family and I are going to see Al in July and that's one I'd love to see him perform in person (this will be my first Al concert, I'm excited already!!!! :biggrin: ). And definitely don't get rid of "One More Minute"! And "Pentiums" is one of my faves of his too.



"Bedrock Anthem" or as Larry suggested, "Like A Surgeon" I think could be eliminated to make room for new songs.



Then again I think Weird Al must really like LAS considering how elaborate it is!! And it's important for him to have songs he likes to perform too...



So I'd say Bedrock Anthem then, and that seems to be everyone else's feeling too!

I agree. If you were to lsten to Bedrck Anthem and Give It Away and Under the Bridge, Al and his band NAILED the music. Even though I voted it off the isalnd its still a great song and a great performance.
