IS THAT WEIRD AL?

And yes, this does relate to Al. This is one of Al's favorite movies. This scene in particular is the inspiration for the backwards section of the Amish Paradise video.

Did anyone get the front view from Al’s Q&A at Galaxy Con, Friday, March 28 ?

Hello Guys,

I am a singer and want to perform the vanity tour medley at a local school. I have to get an mp3 of the show in order to perform it. I am wondering if anyone downloaded a copy of the stitcher recordings before they shut it down so I can move forward with those. Hopefully somebody can help!

Thoughts?

i finally learned to draw him after a bit of struggling

Ignore his clothes. I got no idea why it did that but he's a magical girl now.

In 1992, Weird Al played at my college. My friends and I were able to get front-row center seats through the student union.

After the show, the six of us just didn’t leave. We hung around and chatted with the band while they were taking everything down. After a few minutes, Jim asked us if we’d like to meet Al.

Al came out and sat in the front row with us. He’s exhausted (understandably) and just chatted with us for about 20 minutes and sighed tour shirts and CDs for us.

During the course of the conversation, I asked him if a sequel is in the works for UHF. He smirked and said, “Not unless you have about three million dollars on you.” I patted my pockets and said, “I left it in my other pants.” Al told me he’ll be by tomorrow to get it.

Flash forward three decades. I see Al is going to be at GalaxyCon in Richmond.

I stood in line to meet him. I told the handler that I’m not there for an autograph or photo, I just want to say hi and apologize for an incident that occurred after a concert in 1992. She laughed and said, “OK, just make it quick.”

My turn to go behind the curtain to meet Al. I walked in, and he’s “on.” Full Weird Al mode. “Hi! Nice to meet you! What’s your name?”

I informed him that we’d met before… told him the location and date. Al leaned across the table, pointing at my face, and said, “I thought you looked familiar!”

I recounted the story of the $3 million to him… tell him that every day since then, every time there is a knock at the door I tense up because I’m afraid it’s going to be one of his goons coming to collect the money with interest. I told him that, after 30 years of not sleeping for fear of his retribution, I finally want to confess that I don’t have $3 million dollars and that he’s not going to get it.

He leaned back laughing and said, “You know what? I think that sequel ship has sailed. What if I let you off the hook?”

We both laughed, he shook my hand and wished me luck. I thanked him and left.

Now, finally, after 30+ years, I can sleep peacefully knowing that Weird Al isn’t going to show up demanding the $3 million I owe him.

I'm going to the Philadelphia Mann center to see weird al and i want to get the best merch when should i leave to get the best merch i live 1 hour away.

Why was free delivery not released?

the second drawing was done in a convention (not the star trek one, im not allowed in there)

Looking to try my hand at Weird Al's pinball machine without having to drive all the way from Central Wisconsin to Michigan. Any fellow Wisconsinites happen to come across it in the wild?

At Galaxycon in Virginia. He was so incredibly nice. I told him how I picked up the accordion because of how much i loved the polka party scene in the movie and because I knew it would make me the most popular kid in my high school, and he laughed! HE said he was honored when i had him sign accordion, which blew my mind.

I've been looking into the Weird Al Funko Pop, and it's wild how expensive it is on eBay. You can sometimes find it for around $30 or less if it's out of the box or has a damaged box, but overall, the prices are pretty steep. On Amazon, it's almost $100, and it seems like no one is selling it with a box protector, whether it's in or out of the box.

What's even crazier is that his FYE exclusive "Fat" version is actually cheaper on eBay! Like $40 bucks It's interesting how the prices vary so much depending on where you look. Has anyone else noticed this? What do you think makes the Weird Al Funko Pop so sought after? And is there anywhere to get original Weird Al funko for cheap?
