Just thought I'd post this here for the ladies cause it shocked the hell out of me. I came across this while browsing his myspace a few years back and had to do a double take. Just checked it and it was still up so here it is.
The description says he didn't cut his hair, was a wig for a video shoot. But even I had to go 'holy crap, he's actually a really good looking guy without his nerdy haircut' Not to say I think he's ugly, but his hair definitely does not help his appearance.

So, for the ladies viewing pleasure.

I like some of his songs. Not too many, though. *Shrug*

I like:
"Addicted to Spuds"
"Amish Paradise"
and "White and Nerdy".


I think there were some others I liked, but I can't remember them, so...

My step grandfather went to a music store looking for some polka. He looked and looked nearly through the entire store and found one with "Yankovic" name on it and bought it. At home he started playing it and said what the heck is this. He gave it to my aunt.

I like the Sue Ya song. I sued the owner of the Benny & Joon house because there is no art studio. I sued the owners of Fergusons because they changed the inside of the restuarant. I sued the owners of Eric's house because they were not taking care of it and it's looking shittier every time I drive by it. I'm gonna sue sue yes I'm gonna sue sue sue yeah that's what I'm gonna do. I sued the city of Spokane because they have town down some old buildings.

He was probably looking for Frankie Yankovic, the Polka King. No relation, as I understand it, but it was because of Frankie that Al's parents made him learn to play the accordion. (On his first recording, "My Bologna", his friend Joe "Bermuda" Schwartz provided percussion by drumming on Al's accordion case.)

Actually the track with Bermuda Schwartz is "Another one Rides the Bus"

I have been a religious Weird Al fan since I was a kid.
I have seen him in concert once.
I have many of his songs memorized.
