World of Weird Al Yankovic

Great to be able to ask you these! Thank you for unlocking this forum!

1. If you can share this much concerning the upcoming album, how many different musical styles (not counting polka) have you recorded for Album 14?

2. Will you and the rest of the band appear in Album 14's main artwork? Perhaps the cover?

3. Listening to a lot of Book of Mormon soundtrack right now, and I have this idea in my head that Al may want to write a stage musical someday. Maybe he does, maybe he doesn't. Suppose he does - would you want to help write some of the music? Maybe even play in the pit orchestra on Broadway?

Thanks again!

1. I dunno, 7... 8...9?

2. Yes, but not on the cover. Photos were shot in October, and the booklet is in progress pending remaining song titles, lyrics and credits. But the cover was finished a few months ago, and will make a great bass drum head for the tour!

3. If he does... no, yes.

Intriguing! Thanks for answering, I really appreciate it!

Jon, was there any particular reason the recording dates were taken down on the main site like they were?

Just a timing thing, nothing mysterious.
