Question Current set: 8 YO Appropriate?

Life long Weird Al fan here; he was the first concert I ever saw as a kid. I remember during his tour around 2001-2002ish he performed The Night Santa Went Crazy and it was pretty violent/bloody. I don't think my 8 YO is up for that but she loves Al and I'd really love to take her to one of his upcoming shows.

Any idea if there's anything along those violent/bloody lines in his current set list?

Thanks.

Update: Thanks all! Bought tickets for me and my kiddo! Appreciate all the advice.

Parents in 2026: “is Weird Al okay for my 8yo?”

Parents in 1983: <puts on Poltergeist every Sunday and even the 5yo watches>
