nb. Weird Al performed onstage with the band at this show.
“The Blues Explosion have made a bit of a habit out of inviting unlikely characters on stage during “Chicken Dog.” In Los Angeles on November 22, the band teamed with Weird Al Yankovic (who directed their next video, for the song “Wail”) and bashed out the song.” – MTV.com (December 15, 1996)
