It's All About the Yankovic
I have a confession today, my darlings. Hold my hand, won't you? This is pretty difficult for me. I mean, as if you guys don't already think I'm the most disgusting, pathetic, whorey wench who ever sailed the seven seas, right?
I'm not proud.
I think Weird Al Yankovic is extremely jumpable.
What? I dare you to watch It's All About the Pentiums and tell me that he isn't just a leeeeeeettle bit hott in that silver Armani suit.
People, I saw Weird Al and his band in concert. Last weekend. In Merrillville, Indiana. I know -- that right there means I should probably kill myself for the good of all humanity. But seriously, forget what you think you know about Weird Al.
Forget Like a Surgeon. Forget Fat. Forget I Lost On Jeopardy. Forget his DeBarge hair-do and porn star moustache. Just forget the 80s completely, for all our sakes.
I'm telling you, that show was smokin'!!!
As hott as Al is, John "Bermuda" Schwartz (the drummer) is definitely the best looking one in the group. (Which is kinda like being the sexiest Traveling Wilbury, or the hottest chick at the Angela Landsbury Look-Alike Contest, but whatever. It is what it is.)
And I'm not just saying that because Mr. Bermuda got us backstage passes so I could get Al's autograph. Although, admittedly, that does pretty much make me his bitch. For life.
Actually, Jim West is pretty cute, too, with that curly, curly hair.
Oh, for fuck's sake, I'll just come out with it -- I would totally hook up with anyone and everyone in Al Yankovic's band. There. I said it. Are you happy? I'm a dirty, nasty whore who gets wet for a kinky-haired polka player and his band of merry, middle-aged men.
Fine.
Just leave me alone.
I hold steadfast to my conviction that these guys TOTALLY ROCK FUCKING HARD!!! I believe that there is NOTHING that these guys can't play.
It bears repeating.
NOTHING!!!
Smells Like Nirvana. Bedrock Anthem a la Red Hot Chili Peppers. Amish Paradise a la Coolio. And my current obsession, White & Nerdy a la Chamillionaire.
But the best thing about going to a Weird Al concert?
I was the slimmest, prettiest, classiest broad there.
I'm definitely going back. And you're coming with me.

I beg to differ...
Actually Mrs. Area Man was the best looking woman at the show. You were second best.
Oh, and check out Weird Al's interview with Eminem. Classic. No-wum-sain?
No, I didn't make a link for it - just google it on YouTube ya lazy...

Ask Marty about the time he and Tommy took me to an oldies bar in the late '80s and some drunk chick totally thought Tommy and I were Pee-Wee Herman and Weird Al, respectively.

Yeah, as much as I hate to admit it, ever since he did his look-revamp, I have also had a mad crush on Weird Al (I mean, I liked his music before that, but never dug his looks). So, yeah, I feel ya.

Wenchie:
If Al were a few pounds heavier, I'd so jump his bones. You're right, the man and his band are hot.
The Husband and I went to a concert of Al's for our second or third anniversary, and it was so wonderful! I definitely would go again anytime.
