Al's Garage Band Goes On a World Tour

Overview

Al's Garage Band Goes On a World Tour is a rare 1992 dot-matrix display (DMD) pinball machine designed by Michael Gottlieb for Alvin G. & Company. Known for its unique "CD" spinning ramp, guitar mini-playfield, and early implementation of "bump buttons" for player feedback, only about 1,000 units were produced.

The main goal is to assemble the band and go on a world tour by hitting specific orbits and ramps.

It features a "CD" spinning ramp, a guitar-shaped upper mini-playfield that acts as a ball saver/multiplier, a "drummer" mode requiring rapid, timed button-mashing, a "rock and roll" spelling feature, and ahead-of-its-time design.

Due to the limited production run of just 1000, it is considered a rare, collectible machine. Rated with moderate difficulty, the table is praised for its fun factor but sometimes criticized for repetitive audio.
