I saw Al several years ago.
He's a great performer.
He made excellent use of the screen playing lots of little clips about him over the years while he did costume changes. I lost count of the number of costumes he changed in to. The opening of our show was quite cool too. The lights went down and then he appeared on the video screen. He was standing outside the casino (he was playing at Casino Rama here). Then he started to sing and walk with the camera. He went in the casino and through several halls until finally he entered the side door into the arena. It was a live link and he just sauntered on stage and did his show. I'd have to say one of the best shows I have been to.

Canada, eh?
If you watch his video for Tacky, you will see it is one shot. No editing but probably lots of choreography and rehearsal to make sure everyone was in the right place at the right time.

He did the "Tacky" video opening here, too. They stared with a shot of the Bank of America building across the street from the theater. That's where Mrs. Bag works.

He puts more effort into his show than anyone I've seen except for Wayne Newton. My daughter noticed how much his dance moves resemble mine.

Every one of those I hear sounds like this:

"If we had just scored more points, or if the other team had scored fewer points, I know we could have won. So that's our plan for next week."

I'd like to see Al again. He puts on a hell of a good show.

never saw him live and until a few years ago i never thought of him other than some silly act from my childhood. he has been turning up on the comedy bang bang podcast and really shows how great a personality he is.
