Is it possible that Weird Al looks odder without the mustache and glasses?

Can' wait for this!

I'm glad he's still at it. Dare to be Stupid was my first cd/album (whatever) ever when I was 5 years old. My first musical obsession for sure, and it really opened my eyes to many different styles of music for the first time. I still think Smells Like Nirvana is a better composition than Smells Like Teen Spirit, kazoo riffs and all.

I really like how high brow his material his. He's genuinely funny while keeping everything family friendly - I envy that. Amazing how a man can thrive so long with a key demographic of 9 - 13 year old nerdy white boys.

PS: UHF is the shit.

Shut up.

Parody songs are very hard to do well, thank goodness we have Weird Al to demonstrate why on an album-by-album basis.

Not the highest on my list of his work, but probably a lot of that is just the evolved music scene and different styles than even 10 years ago.

That said, my favorite is still Skipper Dan
