6. He does indeed.
I saw him on the "Bad Hair Day" tour, and it was spectacular. Films, costume changes, unreleased songs. Good stuff. Yankovic haters can bite me. :)

9. he came to our campus a couple of years ago
but was charging fucking 60 bucks. To students. On our campus. Fuck that!


Though, if he came back with cheaper tickets (read: free) I would definitely see him. I have all his albums

10. That's awesome. I can only imagine that his shows must
be pretty high energy and very funny. I hope you have a great time.

13. His shows are awesome.
Lots of costume changes (for instance, he does the Michael Jackson parody wearing a giant fat suit, and his band performs "Dare To Be Stupid" wearing radiation suits) and he plays some pretty hilarious video clips in between.

11. My top 10 favorite Weird Al songs:
1. Angry White Boy Polka (those guys soooo deserve it!)
2. Phony Calls (to the tune of TLC's "Waterfalls")
3. Cavity Search ("Numb me, drill me, floss me, bill me")
4. Living with a Hernia ("I feel bad!")
5. eBay
6. Your Horoscope For Today ("You will never find true happiness, whatcha gonna do? Cry about it?")
7. Amish Paradise
8. Dog Eat Dog (An amalgamation of Talking Heads parodies)
9. Pretty Fly for a Rabbi
10. Grapefruit Diet

But, this list could be a lot longer. There's so much more great material that he has.....

12. I really want to go see Weird Al again!
Edited on Thu Mar-15-07 12:28 PM by EOO
But sadly I think I might be out of town when he comes to the Orange County Fair this year (and his fair shows are the best, no questions asked!).

And for the record, Straight Outta Lynwood is his best album in years!

The album is amazing. Have you seen the episdoe of Robot Chicken with the music video for "Weasel Stomping Day"? :rofl:


I saw him about 7 years ago for the Running With Scissors tour. HILARIOUS. :D

15. Yeah, that was pretty funny.
I don't watch a whole lot of Adult Swim but I did get a good laugh out of that one!

17. So, do ya think Weird Al might be related to Dick Clark?
He just doesn't seem to age. Is it a Dorian Grey, thing? (Except Dick's portrait has finally been discovered.) :freak:
