One nerd interviewing another.
Garner Andrews was/is so lucky. ;D
Did anyone else hear Mr. Yankovic sharing the secrets of his dark genius with Our Folksy Charm Hero Of The Airwaves?
Worth being late for work... :)
No, but I wish I had!
Well, you didn't, so keep wishing! ::pttth:: ;)
Don't you have an annoying but witty saying about "If wishes were..." ;D
PS: Apparently he was on the 91 BouncingCrap radio station as well -- is he touring through Edmonchuk or sumtin?
Yeah, I heard it on the way to work. Great fun!

D'oh I'll have to check this out tonight.
list of songs (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Straight+Outta+Lynwood)
Weird Al's "Polkarama!" -- with Futurama voices?! (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vCUpYt2icp8) (pretty cool vid done by a fan -- I presume the actual song is Weird Al singing, not Zoidberg and Kiff Kroker (and Hank Hill)...
Also "Virus Alert (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jzRxkxu5ZKc)" (...lol, the lyrics describe the woe of most Microsoft workplaces, and the tune reminds me of Rush and Queen :)
Other Weird Al videos -- most of which were presumably ripped from the DVD, some of which are fan offerings...
"Polkarama" -- Al's vocals, this time set to the original artists' videos :) (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JCAt9WcCFbM)
"I'll Sue Ya" (http://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=Weird+Al+Sue)
"Pancreas" (http://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=Weird+Al+Pancreas)
Close But No Cigar (http://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=weird+al+cigar)
Don't Download This Song (http://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=Weird+Al+Download+Song) **Al makes this song available for free download! (http://dontdownloadthissong.com/DDTSecard.html)
"Canadian Idiot" (http://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=Weird+Al+Canadian+Idiot)
- - -
finally: funny, fascinating find: "The Not Al Page" (http://free.house.cx/~eil/etc/notal_list.html)
The not Al Page is interesting, because I have come across many songs tagged as Al that I didn't think where.
omg! "Yankovic announced on his website that he is teaming up with YAHOO! Music to make a fans-only video for White and Nerdy (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/White_%26_Nerdy#Fan-made_Video). The deadline for submissions to Yahoo! is October 26th."
also, re. the classic and contagious "Virus Alert!" -- more info on the animator/director David Lovelace (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Retarded_Animal_Babies)

I'm not sure if I even want to rent this movie -- after watching Ninja's (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pix3CXtLsp8&mode=related&search=Ask%20A%20Ninja:%20Special%20Delivery%207%20Pirates%20Of%20The%20Caribbean) "review" :o ;D
^ Speaking of Ask A Ninja, this brilliant cartoonist "Dogtoon" (or is it Doogtoon?) did one or two collaborate animations, and they were frickin' hilarious.
Well, look what's on his Youtube account -- he did some stuff with Weird Al!

related/confirmed/explained: Alfred Matthew Yankovic goofin' with Tom Green (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y2P15c11jD4)
"Our Hero" now has a YouTube account, I guess the one Official Place for his videos... (apparently linked from his MySpace page so ya know it's legit)

and hey look, White and Nerdy: Take 1 (green screen, single-take) (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GWc6QQ9JlMc) :o :D (even funnier when you tell your brain that Donny Osmond is Silent Bob and Weird Al is Jason Mewes ;) )
looks like they also posted the green screen version with the final vid overlay (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BW2anNxUl3s)
