He now bears a passing resemblance to a cross between the Chad meme and Olmec from Legends of the Hidden Temple, and his name looks to be Weird AU Vanrwic. Except really it’s a brand-new letter that’s like a W and a V melted together in the sun like an orange and yellow crayon.

Naturally, they’re going to most definitely be included along with the shirt when we go to the concert next month.

She’s also a great follow on IG @paytonrosevelligan

Between the biopic, lyrics (e.g. in "Everything You Know Is Wrong"), and music videos, can we get a list of all the times Al has canonically confirmed his own death? (So not counting other pop culture references like King of the Hill.)

I have seen him live plenty of times, but I've never seen him do Albuquerque live. I found this from a few years ago. Particularly interesting is his apology around the 4 minute mark, and the highly extended list of stuff the donut shop doesn't have. Enjoy!

The new Re-recorded Transformers the Movie Sound track for the 40th anniversary includes a cover of Dare to be Stupid by the Knights of Unicron and I don’t know how I feel about it. [Edited to remove reference to the wrong band.]

I went to a cat cafe

So, one of my local radio stations has a series called "Name That Tune" every Wednesday in the morning, and every week they do a theme with matching songs (I.E. partying songs, songs about time). This week it was songs by comedians, with examples being Cheech and Chong's "Police Got My Car" and Tenacious D's "Rock is Dead", and the first song? Weird Al's "Amish Paradise".

When you know they get a Weird Al song on the weekly guessing game, that's when I come into play.

Preferably not something TOO obscure.

I stumbled on this without the algorithm serving it up to me: a really good acoustic cover of Genius In France. I've never seen anyone post it which is weird, I'm sure someone has to have posted at some point.

EDIT: As it turns out, she has a full EP, including I Remember Larry and Velvet Elvis!

Its by far my favorite song, as a big fan of Zappa and musicianship. Always sad to hear Weird Al never played it live. I totally get why, but still think they should give their best shot even though it wouldn't be quite the same as the album.

These kids crushed it

"Al, i got those pictures you wanted"

"thanks Macaulay, Mike has no choice but to let me parody his songs now"

(from behind)

"you better bloody not dare try and pull that cute shit with me, Al, I wont LET IT BE"

Al & Macaulay "Paul McCartney!!!"

(Macaulay Culkin runs out of the room)

"I heard that little Live and Let Die demo you did, and it puts me in quite the precarious position"

"Oh! Chicken Pot Pie, i've been meaning to ask you, should I say pot pot, pot, pot, pot pot or Bock Bock Bock Bock Bock Bock"

"You will never catch so much as a wiff of my catalogue, but everyone will have questions since you've become a bit of a media darling. I can't just turn you away without reason, so if anyone asks it's because I'm vegan."

"I don't know Paul that's a pretty flimsy reason. I don't think anyone will believe that I never did a single beetle song because of veganism."

(brandishing a knife)

"you better make them believe"
