So, he played Albuquerque instead of Saga begins or Yoda this time? That's great! Finally, it's a full non-parody show!

It still had parodies because he did the acoustic medley.
There was a special fake out version of Albuquerque before the real Albuquerque! It was fun all night because he kept teasing throughout the night and making it sound like he was going to play Albuquerque then do a different song instead. A really fun show, one of my favorites, I'm glad we came out for this one!
And I got my towel signed!

I take it that the fakeout song was the same one from Touring With Scissors' Albuquerque show?
Yes, however one could argue he changed the melodies just enough that they become originals in their own right, no?Elvis wrote:It still had parodies because he did the acoustic medley.

That’s awesome, Dave. I saw you there at the show. While waiting in the parking lot we saw Steve and Ruben walking about and caught Emo coming back from the plaza. Great show.

Hi, everyone! (For all you VIPs, I was Vanna last night!)
So I can confirm that the fake out version of Albuquerque was the same one from Touring With Scissors. So when we went to the Lensic to pick up our tickets, we could hear him rehearsing it from the lobby. I excitedly explained to my wife that he had performed it years ago to fake out the audience way back in the 90s, and that from what I'd seen online, it was an unrecorded concert only song, so we were in for a rare treat.
We had to sit separately during the show (could only afford the one VIP ticket) and afterward, she revealed to me that she had taken care of that whole "unrecorded" business during the show. I don't know if this board has a policy on linking to clips of concert recordings, but I could share it with the fans, if that's OK...

A video of it was posted on the Weird Al subreddit earlier.

Al has certainly been comfortable with the covers because it's tremendous publicity. Not sure how the admin team feel about the other content.
It'll also be available on Stitcher Premium in soundboard recording quality however if Murphy's Law* occurs then I'm glad you guys took care of it!
