Weird Al Artifact at OC Fair

Post by Johnnytimewarp »

Bermuda, you have the definitive collection of Al memorabilia, so I think you can answer this one...In the pics of the Experience that you posted, I noticed a blown up poster featuring Al with his back turned to the viewer with his accordian slung around his back in a Springsteen-esque pose (ie see Bruce's Greatest Hits album cover). At the top it simply said "YANKOVIC". What was that from? What was it a promo for?

That's a parody of a Springsteen poster from the 80s, for an Al show at New York's Beacon Theater (or the Bottom Line, I forget without the poster in front of me.) BTW, that happens to be my poster, and will be coming back to me this week - I'll report back in a few days.
