Yeah, I really wish they would do it live again! Then all the albums would get some live recognition. Defnitely one of my favorite Al songs.
What a racket they're makin', Jack, they keep me up at night playin' their electric guitars!!

He did DED for the PH tour. I wish it was a permanent addition, but I don't see it returning for a while

Yeah, sucks. Anything from this album would be nice though.

Dog Eat Dog was a great song. Reminds me of Dilbert in a way.
How old was that last signature? I mean, really?

That's what I've always thought too.

Dog Eat Dog was very fun to see live. I would definitely take that over DTBS if given the choice. He does a spot-on parody of Stop Making Sense.

I've always felt that the originals on Polka Party were very strong. If only ''Dare to Be Stupid'' and ''Polka Party'' had been combined, Al's career might not have hit that snag like it did.

Wasn't like that for the fans, I cant get enough Polka Party! Dog Eat Dog would be one that I wouldnt mind seeing instead of Dare To Be Stupid but I dont see why he cant just play both, and make us really really happy! Al is the only one that has to put anything on for Dog Eat Dog too.

Well, what I was saying is that he should've merged the two albums. I think an album track listing like this:

Like A Surgeon
Dare To Be Stupid
One Of Those Days
Living With A Hernia
One More Minute
Yoda
Dog Eat Dog
Slime Creatures From Outer Space
Addicted To Spuds
Good Enough For Now
Christmas At Ground Zero
Polka Party!

Would have made the album a true success.
