I would like to organize all files with a date in the Album Name to a certain folder.

Album Name is 2022-05-10 New York, NY and should go to a "Live Shows" folder

Can I use Album Contains XXXX-XX-XX somehow to automatically set all of these to move where the X's are different for many files?

You could use a regular expression in a virtual tag to match those.
Something like:

Code
[0-9]{4}-[0-9]{2}-[0-9]{2}
Bee excellent to each other...

Can you be more specific as to how I can use that?  I am not completely understanding virtual tags...

The wiki link on Virtual Tags is a good place to start.
