To close out the band’s March 17, 2026 St. Patrick’s Day show at the Citizens House of Blues Boston, Al Barr made a surprise appearance joining the band for their final four songs of “Worker’s Song”, The Vultures Circle High”, “Alcohol” and “I’m Shipping Up to Boston”. It marked the first time Barr had performed with the band since going on hiatus in 2022 to care for his mother. In an Instagram post on June 28, 2026, Barr shared an update about both his family and upcoming guest appearances on other band’s albums. In the post, Barr noted that he was “still hoping to return” to the band “someday”, but also noted “there really is no way of predicting what is going to happen” with regards to his mother’s health.
