Okay, Patti, I'm sure you're right. I'm probably thinking of something else....
The biggest forum about Weird Al Yankovic

I think he'd appreciate the Star more, seeing that it was a fan project.scottidog @ Mar 22 2004, 02:55 PM wrote: On the other hand, maybe the RNRHOF would mean more to Al?
Well, as I said, I'd be afraid it would take away from the Star effort. Which I am pretty invested in. I suppose both could be done, but I found in trying to talk to people they had a pretty short attention span (get out of my face, strange lady! I'm waiting for AL!!) and trying to do both I think would be not only confusing, but counterproductive to both.weirdstef @ Mar 22 2004, 06:43 PM wrote: Why can't we do both? From the sounds of it for the RNRHOF no money needs to be donated and people are always willing to sign a petition if it is for a good cause
Why do I have the feeling I should weigh in on this?Cinnamon @ Mar 22 2004, 12:01 PM wrote: Petitions seem to work well for Al projects. If someone (Catra?) found out what might be needed for a printed petition (name and city/state of residence?), one idea is to use a concert tracker and organize volunteers attending concerts to collect signatures from all over the country. Literally thousands of people attend every Al concert. Signatures could be gathered while in line, at the entrances/exits, forms passed up and down rows of seats, etc. (Not during a concert, only before and after). Then those lists could all be mailed to the person in charge (Catra?) or mailed directly to the RNRHOF people, whichever would make the greatest impact on them (possibly the latter since they could be continously receiving mail?).
