Hmm does anyone know if Al ever answered that question about the ice cream in the DTBS video? If not, that'd be a good question for Ask Al.
I love DTBS, too, and was very excited when I saw it performed live! When I saw everyone in those hazmat suits, and the music started, I said "Excellent!" out loud!
That was my first concert, too. My son Marshall went with me. He won't go with me again, I don't think. He's too cool for Al now.

Awwww. Actually, it's not that he's too cool...He's not cool ENOUGH.

Either that, or he's siding with his non-Al fan father. I do still catch him singing Al's songs. I think he's in denial!

DTBS RULES!

...Also, why is the guy chopping the cucumber in green at the part in the video when Al sings "It's like spitting on a fish/barking up a tree"? Is he trying to keep secret?

Yes. Actually, I think that that's just something completely random Al came up with to confuse people. Seems like him to do that, huh? XD

It's sorta like your avatar. Al as the Phantom Of The Opera (w/o mask, with goggles) was pretty random also.

Isn't that a kiwi?
"It's like spitting on a fish/It's like slicing a kiwi..."
Nah. Doesn't work as well as the original.

The video might have a guy wrapped in da-glo green bandages, cutting a kiwi *more seeds* with a knife held in his left hand, but, you do still have someone in the lower left corner of the screen doing sign language for the lines being sung at that time, so it all works out! hehe!
Patti
who posted that run-on sentence on purpose!

When the green taped person is cutting the kiwi there is a girl in the corner of the video doing actions along with the words of the song. I thought it was some kind of sign language since the person with the green tape on couldnt really move its mouth.
