    *goes to the roof*

    “I never noticed the lovely vi-”

  2. JEDM Says:

    I’m ok!!!! :)

  3. Richard Latanville Says:

    Snifff. No Toronto. I guess the people are mad at him for dropping that banana off CN tower ;)

  4. A Man Says:

    Oh man, I saw Sault St. Marie, and I was like, ONTARIO!!! But no!

  5. ABN Says:

    Why are you “crying”, Josh? Is this the last set of dates??????

  6. JEDM Says:

    I’m not crying ABN, and apparently you’re not either…..

    I was just hoping for TN or NC……

    this is NOT the last set of dates…..

    Al updated “Live performances” in the archive w/ the SOL tour.

    and it says “2007″, there will likely a “2008″

  7. JEDM Says:

    it’s a shame i don’t live in bevelry, ma

    8/11 is my b-day

  8. Capt. 'Cane Says:

    Ugh He’s Playing The State Fair Again!?!
    Now We Dont Get The Full AL Experience (Shortened Setlist)
    Id Rather Have Him Play The Dodge Theater Again
    But Some AL Is Better Than No AL

  9. wrdalfn Says:

    Yay!!! Merrillville, IN!! Only 1.5 hours away!!! Last time we waited til 2:00 am for Al, didn’t get to see him (just a wave for us loyal fans) but Steve & Jay both gave autographs.

  10. JEDM Says:

    I had a thought….

    If we DEMANDED “White & Nerdy” hoodies….and we got them…..why can’t we DEMAND Al put out “The Straight Outta Lynwood Video Collection”???

  11. A Man Says:

    Because DEMANDING is not very nice. A PLEASE and THANK YOU would work a lot better!

  12. ABN Says:

    Yeah, A Man!!!! (sorry, Josh…) But we didn’t exactly DEMAND the W&N Hoodies. (Did we?)

  13. JEDM Says:

    Well, If Al says we DEMANDED them??

    I’m not gonna argue….are you?….(I have the blog saved to prove it!! :D)

    THE ALBUM IS IN STORES!
    I don’t know if you’ve heard anything about this or not, but… well, I’ve got a new album, and it’s out as of today.

    I’m in the middle of my cross-country promotional blitz - getting a little tired of talking about myself, but still having a great time. The buzz on the new album is huge - the record label seems very excited.

    Say, if I could ask a favor… if you are at all inclined to pick up a copy (or 12) of “Straight Outta Lynwood,” could you please try to do it this week if at all possible? People in the industry really pay a lot of attention to first week sales figures and chart position - it means a lot to them. (Okay, okay, it means a lot to me too.)

    And to all the spoiler-free people who have somehow been able to resist the temptation to download and listen to the album early… I congratulate you and salute your will-power. Now that you’ve come this far, make sure you do it right - after all, you can only listen to a new album for the first time once. When you get home from the record store, unplug the phone. Dim the lights. Anoint yourself in the finest of oils, set out a plate of freshly baked chocolate chip cookies and put the CD in your stereo. Make sure that the volume is turned up to just below the pain threshold, and that you’re sitting in the sweet spot on your couch. Then press play, sit back and bask in the glory and majesty that is “Straight Outta Lynwood.” Listen over and over again until the songs are permanently wedged in your brain. Then and only then, you may flip the disc over to the DVD side and play all of the music videos, followed by the making-of-the-album featurette. Then you can check out the 5.1 mixes, or take full advantage of the karaoke function until the neighbors threaten to call the police.

    Anyway, enjoy the new album. I really hope you like it.

    Oh, by the way… just because you DEMANDED it… we will make “White & Nerdy” hoodies (as seen in the video) available to the public. They should be ready in about a week or so… I’ll keep you posted.

    See ya at the in-store!

  14. ABN Says:

    Oh……MY BAD!!!!! Sorry, Josh! (Hey, what did you want me to “watch out” for on your site??)

    Come on guys, chant!
    DE-MAND!!! DVD’S!!!!!
    DE-MAND!!! DVD’S!!!!!

  15. JEDM Says:

    If Al says it….are we “so called fans” gonna argue with him??

    ABN:

    What do you think I meant??

    The server my site is on is having trouble so it may be a while before you see anything NEW.

  16. JEDM Says:

    It’s ok, ABN!!

    Still friends, buds, pals, amigos?

  17. ABN Says:

    Oh, of COURSE!!!!

    PS to Josh: Do you like the TV show “Lost”? I’m addicted to it…

  18. ABN Says:

    OMG, if that “Thing” was The SOL Tour Yoda Chant, then I’m listenign to it RIGHT NOW!!!!!!!

    PS to all: Sorry for double posting!

  19. JEDM Says:

    To ABN:

    That’s not the end of the NEW stuff…..

    I’ve never seen Lost….

    I’m making my own SOL DVD collection….
