World of Weird Al Yankovic

Are you guys STILL holding out hope for a Dragon...whatever parody?

I saw Robot Chicken ONCE because a friend told me it was good. I thought it was completely stupid and completely forgot what the show was or how it was animated until you guys started talking about action figures. Now, I'm hyped about it! I wonder what classic action figures will be used? "Star Wars?" "He-Man?" "Transformers?" I can't wait to see the video.

On a side note, when I was a young kid, I once used some paint to turn an action figure of Egon (from "The Real Ghostbusters") into a homemade Al figure. Yeah, it looked about as crappy as you're imagining it in your head. But I thought it was cool!

I keep thinking Weasel Stomping Day might be a sort of bluegrass or country hoedown type song. This is partially due to the fact that in the photos there is a pic of Jim West playing the banjo, and the descriptions given of the other songs in that post detailing the tracklisting , don't quite seem like the sort of songs that would have banjos in them. Plus stomping on weasels seems like the type of thing a bunch of hicks/rednecks/hillbillies would do.

Doesn't he play some banjo on the polkas, though?

Yeah but Jim was playing banjo in the sessions for the originals too. Polkarama was recorded a long time after.

The video for this song premieres SEPTEMBER 24!!! WHOO!

Yeah, unfortunately, I'll be skipping this premiere. I couldn't resist the temptation to download "Don't Download This Song" and to watch the video. But with the WSD video premiering a mere two days before the album, I think I'll have no trouble holding out. After all, I haven't even had the most remote temptation to hear the two songs already leaked.

Well, I'm gonna watch it. :3 After all, haven't I already demonstrated my extreme lack of any sort of will power? Plus, I don't count it as a spoiler, since it's... y'know... being aired on national TV with Al's blessing. XP

I read the timeline wrong and thought that the video for this song had already premiered. I won't watch it on the 24th, considering I think I can wait two days for the album first and then YouTube search the video.

yay! september 24th is my birthday! what a nice present. thank you, al. i know it's not just a coincidence.

The video will come with the album, anyways. YouTube won't be neccisary.

I won't be watching it either. I've already heard 2 songs from the album. I don't want to hear a 3rd before it premieres. Waiting two days to hear/see it when the album comes out won't be a problem.
