I'm probably going to get lynched when I say this, but I've never heard Angry White Boy Polka. Better put it on my to do list.

Ya, I meant UHF.

It's a really funny movie. I watched it not too long ago,and it still makes me laugh.

I might be going to an Al concert in May. Can't wait!

Awesome! Where's he having a concert?

http://www.weirdal.com/touring.htm

Those are the current tour dates.

I'm sure more dates will be added. If you don't see one you could go to, you can always start requesting for one. They will eventually hear you.

If you mean, Glasgow, Scotland... well, the news isn't good. :-(

I checked http://blog.myspace.com/weirdal and Al had this on his latest post:

"We WERE hoping to have a small European tour in late April, but I'm sorry to say that it doesn't look like it's going to happen at this time. We got solid offers for shows in London, Amsterdam and Frankfurt, but we would have needed a few more shows just to break even due to the expense of dragging all of our stuff over to Europe. Sorry to all my European fans – I'm disappointed too."

I'm feeling your pain, Zero... he's not coming to China, or even Asia, either. :~(

Damn. Sorry to see that.

Damnx2.. I am unable to go to the concert. Due to it being on the other side of the state. Just too far for me to go. :(

*Coop's plane goes down in flames* Not Al's fault, I'd wager, but we need to see the great man come to the UK, sicne he parodies so many great English songs

Man that sucks. I'd have thought that his following was big enough to include more than one UK gig.

Yeah, and I can agree with Al on this. If there isn't enough places to tour, it makes it harder to get all their stuff there and back.

Not harder, but more expensive. That's the reason why the arenas don't want the let him have a gig, they don't know who he is, so they don't think they'll be able to sell enough tickets.

Seems a little strange to me that they don't know this information. Must be a conspiracy.

I wouldn't say a conspiracy. According to his site, Al's album is available almost everywhere west of the old Iron Curtain, and in the Czech Republic, too.

Though it's available only in digital format in Italy and France, and his label had to fight tooth and nail to get it into U.K. stores. Don't know what's up with that.

I got my Al supplies from play.com, so it makes little difference to me, trying to get them from the high street.

New Video. Trapped in the Drive-Thru. I'm surprised no one knew of this.

I just saw that this morning. I really liked it, probably my favorite animated music video off of Straight Out Of Lynwood. I hope he will announce some Chicago shows on his tour.

He also appeared on the myspace feature Artist to Artist with Seth Green. They go great together.

Hmm the site doesn't seem to want to link. I guess you'll have to take my word that the interview was great.

Added it to my myspace profile. I think the link is still my website in my NG Profile

Awesome! A video on my favorite Weird Al song!

I saw that video the other day. It does the song justice, very fun to watch!

I like it almost as much as the Close, but no Cigar video on the DvD side of Lynwood

Saw it shortly after it came out... read about it a week in advance on www.weirdal.com, though. It definitely does make the song a lot more fun. Particularly the bit where he turns on the radio.

Ya, I liked the music video for no Cigar on the back of Lynwood. That song is so random LOL!
