Well, hey how ya doin', have a seat, have a drink.
Boy it's good to see you, what can I say?

When raised the $40,000 needed to sponsor Al's Star on the Hollywood Walk Of Fame, we knew this day would come, and it's finally here, and it's so exciting! Today we sent sponsorship fee for Al's Star off to Hollywood. Literally... the check's in the mail!

Next steps are securing a date for the ceremony, and location for the star, and I can assure you Al and his manager have been working with the folks in Hollywood to shore those up. We'll share any info as soon as we are allowed!

Hope to see as many of you as we can at the ceremony this summer! We couldn't have done it without all you amazing contributors!

I am beyond excited to be able to go to the ceremony! I have my boss on notice so that when the date is announced, she will immediately schedule me off for a few days!

My first trip to L.A., and I can't think of a better reason!!!
Well, this is it. This IS the last minute!

Attn Weird Al Star Fund contributors -- we want to hear from YOU!

Are you planning to attend Al's star ceremony in person? If you think or know that you will be there, please RSVP to [email protected] as we've been asked by the Walk of Fame people to help them gauge how many fans will be attending so they can accommodate the street situation at the ceremony as best as possible.

Second, we also want to make sure we have the latest and greatest contact info for all the Weird Al Star Fund contributors. So whether you plan to attend or not, if you are a contributor and haven't heard from Vikki recently, or aren't sure she has your latest contact info, please also contact [email protected] so we can make sure that your contact info is up to date!
