Rubén has been fighting bladder cancer for the last few months. It had always been the hope that he would get back out on the road after the break and it looks like he got the ok! Richard Thomas did an admirable job, but Rubén is truly one of a kind.
The Yoda Chant actually originated on the Dr Demento 20th Anniversary tv special. It was written and choreographed by Steve Jay. By the time they went on the road for the Off The Deep End Tour, it had moved to Yoda.
Happy Friday everyone! We had some discussion on reposts and have decided that our previous rule of 30 days is too soon and our current rule of 1 year may be a little too long. As a compromise, we have decided to change it to 27 weeks.
As this summers tour is the continuation of last years, the spoiler rule will NOT be in effect. At the end of the tour last year we removed the need for spoiler tags, so everything has been discussed freely for many months now. If you would like to flair something as spoiler, please feel free to. If someone posts something without a spoiler tag, there is no reason to report it or complain about it.
Everyone have a great summer and see Al and the band as much as possible!
Amish Paradise and Dare To Be Stupid were the other two songs
Al has a little bit of screen time in this video from his friends Art and Artie. The video was been around for decades, so if you just want to see it, it is on YouTube
