World of Weird Al Yankovic

If I made it to an Alcon and they did that, I'd know what I'd do.

the mental image of some dude chowing on oysters while that's playing in the background is astonishingly funny.

Or the Toyota that he gave to MTV to be painted up like a Hawaiian shirt and awarded as a prize to a very disappointed contest winner? Or the convertible in the Mothership gallery? Or the car in the W&N video with the quite stationary rims?

No, we've never discussed Al's car.

Or what about this possible white Porsche?

A few weeks ago, as I said here, I performed IAATP at my Saturday program and I got a great response. This week, I decided to perform Polkarama! Well, let's just say, it freaking rocked! Everyone loved it and they were all laughing! I chose Polkarama because the program is made up of teens and it seemed the most logical choice, seeing as they know the songs. I used the instrumental off the dual disc (thanks to Stephen who sent it to me) and I plan to do more Al songs in the future. Its a nice way to express myself by representing one of the things I love, plus the kids respond to his music well.

That's great that the performance went so well, Meli.

I would love to perform My Bologna or AORTB at a talent show at my school. I may need an accordion with more buttons, though. All I have is a 12 bass.

Aww, shucks.
Anything to help.
Besides, I already had them copied from the DVD, it's my pleasure to help to help you avoid that annoyance.
I need to re-do Pancreas... because I cut off too much silence at the start, so I can't do the "wooooEEEEEEooooo" part.... yeah...

I believe I'll need DICYO for two weeks from today. Mwuahahahahahaha!

That is awesome Meli, I know I had a act for OMM which involved props but alas the talent show at my school was based on how skimpy an outfit you could "dance" in...

Speaking of instrumental tracks... anyone have one for "Melanie"?

Thanks everyone! I was really nervous and I didn't want to explain and give it away before I started so all I said was, "You're going to hear and song...and it shall change...a lot. Expect the unexpected!" I believe the biggest laugh was during "Candy Shop," then again, the original makes you wonder why they let that stuff play on the radio!

Sorry, I don't have "Melanie", some programs can take out the vocal track, but a bit of an echoed singing remains and if you're recording something over it, you'll be disappointed. Maybe someone else can help you there.
