OK so I downloaded the album on iTunes. Very nice getting it at 11pm last night. Isn't there supposed to be album artwork and lyrics included in the download? This is the first time I've ever downloaded a whole album.

Weird Al is now trending on Facebook, now for his 8 Videos 8 Days. This is GREAT publicity for him. Also, tomorrow, Foil music video made by College Humor featuring Patton Oswalt and Thomas Lennon

I don't understand, is my Facebook different somehow, as I don't see and have never seen such thing as "Trending" in Facebook :huh: ? I even opened it in IE to see how it looks like without AddBlock :unsure:

It may be a USA-only thing?

Hey everyone, I'm not sure if this is against the rules or whatever, but Al is doing an AMA right now on Reddit (http://www.reddit.com/r/IAmA/comments/2 ... _anything/) to promote MF. I posted a comment on there that I'd REALLY like him to see, as it contains links to some of my fan videos of his songs on YouTube I've worked ever so hard on in the last year. For those of you with Reddit accounts, if you'd be so kind as to go to reddit.com/u/nachozrule and upvote my comment so Al sees it, I'd be happy as can be.

Also, while you're there, you can find /u/George-Newman and mock him online (yeah, it's a real account, and it has a post on /r/hamstergifs).

Thanks, and done!

Yeah, I myself was wondering about the polka medleys. I think we can expect parodies shortly after songs go big after this album, but I'm not sure when polkas would make sense (or originals, for that matter).

Hi, first time poster. Hope no rules are being broken here.
I purchased the awesome new album through iTunes, but I have been having problems viewing/opening the digital booklet that came with the purchase.

I have tried the Windows 8 Reader and Adobe Reader and both say that the booklet can now be opened as it isn't a valid PDF file. I just wondered if anyone else had this issue, and if so how did they solve it?

Thanks.

Welcome to the forum! No rules broken, however you might be better posting about this in the Chit Chat topic. This is supposed to be just for updates on information about the new album.

Speaking of which, as it's out... :lockit:
