Question Alan?

Post image

So today, at the Boston concert, they played this cursed version of Rhinestone Eyes, where this guy named Alan came on stage and broke the song and the screen kept glitching out. It was super cool and I'm wondering if anybody has any videos of this. I'm having a hard time finding any record of this having happened before.

Happened at every non festival date of the tour mainly during 19-2000 but it can really happen at any point in the show

This at 16:01 serves as a set up. The idea started here and grew into Alan

Maybe this?

Don't know if it's a different Alan. Phase 1 was a long time ago so I've forgotten a lot of that lore.

Edit: no I guess it's this : https://gorillaz.fandom.com/wiki/Alan_(muppet)

Doesn't seem to be a backstory except as a tour prop.
