How did you first
hear about Al?: Kids
on my bus singing "Another one rides the bus" on the way to
school.
What's the story behind that?:
Compulsory education laws required me to attend school. It was
4 miles away from my home so I rode the bus. Contraction of
the diaphragm forces air through a structure in the larynx called
the voice box, which consists of vocal cords and their surrounding
tissues. Vocal cords and the diaphragm can be controlled by
voluntary muscles to produce audible tones called "singing".
Have you been to
an Al concert?: Yup
If so, how many?: 4 and counting.
Next show June 28, 2003!
Concert Experience Story: I
saw AC/DC in Detroit; they give an awesome show. We were all
really wasted from the tailgate party! Oh, you mean a Weird
Al concert story?
Have you ever met
Al?: Yup
If so, do you have a story?:
He has a ton of patience to do autographs and pictures for us
AL freaks for 4 hours straight. He and Suzanne are extremely
nice.
Have you ever met any of the band?:
Yes
If so, who?: Bermuda
Do you have a story?: I was
in a dark room watching a performance by Carla Ulbrecht and
started talking to the person who walked up next to me when
she finished her set. We were talking for about 20 seconds when
I suddenly realized it was none other than Jon! He was really
cool.
Have you ever tried
a Twinkie Weiner Sandwich?:
No Twinkies for me, thanks
Do you collect Al
items?: Not really
If so, what's your favorite/most valuable
item?: My lucky lucky autographed copy of In 3-D
Anything else
we should know about you?: I'm a LAWYER, and you
can't spell that without W.A.Y. Otherwise, I would be a LER.
Have you made a Parody?:
Only informally, never written or recorded. Mostly songs with
banal, repetitive lyrics get the treatment.
