The stage was designed to resemble a cozy bedroom. A twin-sized bed sat on the right side, accompanied by a tall standing lamp that cast a warm glow. At the center of the stage was a desk adorned with books, a framed photograph of his dog Zoe, and a narrow vase holding flowers. To the left was a keyboard piano, adding to the intimate, home-like atmosphere, with scattered lamps around the stage enhancing the warm, welcoming vibe of the performance.
During his first talk break, Alec dedicated the tour’s first note to Adam Sandler. He shared the story with the audience and wrote it down in a notebook on the desk. Alec explained that this was his second time in San Antonio, and the reason for the dedication was that his first visit to the city was when he took his parents to see Adam Sandler's show. While backstage, Alec asked Adam if he could appear in one of his music videos. Although Adam was unsure, his daughters recognized Alec, leading to a friendly encounter and conversation.
Later in the show, a couple in the crowd held up a sign asking Alec to reveal the gender of their baby. After they handed him a note, Alec jokingly said, "That's too much pressure," before announcing, "Lizzie and Zayden are having a boy!" He followed up by asking, "What's the name?" When the couple replied "Cylus," Alec responded with an enthusiastic "Wooooo!" The second note of the night was then dedicated to the unborn baby, Cylus, with Alec writing, "To Cylus, you can’t read yet, but your parents have great taste in music."
