I'm quite curious about how you heard about

Al in the Netherlands. Are you and Insoft

fans of music in general, or demented music

(do you know Dr. Demento?)or comedy records?



I think some of us might like to hear a little about you.

P. S. You'd be amazed at the number of people who think Michael Jackson lives in *Netherlands* (not even *The Netherlands*) instead of his real home "Neverland" outside of Santa Barbara.

D'oh!

Hmmm, how did i heard of him? Well I think i someday had a mp3 on my harddisk, and thougt heej, this sounds nice. Lets see the artist, en surfed to http://www.weirdal.com after a little search, and i was a fan.

uhm. I'm almost the same as insoft. I had some MP3's on my HDD. But I also saw several clips of the guy. One day i downloaded all his clips from gnutelle :wink:. It really made me laugh. So the next day I ordered 2 CD's (The first CD and Running with scissors). Some days later I bought the "Weird Al" Yankovic Videos and now i'm planing to buy Al-in-the-box.



His music makes me happy every time I listen to it. Weird Al Yankovic rulez!

That sounds like my story and probably many others, too. I hope you guys get to meet Al in Europe someday.

Well, If Al isn't coming to The Netherlands (or Europe) next year, I'll probably come to the USA to visit a concert, If I have enought money for it.

Nothing. But insoft thought it would be funny to mention it. You know, Netherlands -> Amsterdam -> Drugs are legal.. and stuph..



It was a joke, no relation to Weird Al at all.

BTW Don't think I (or insoft) do drugs, and no, we do NOT walk on wooden shoes or something like that (people mostly think of that if you tell them you're from the netherlands).



It's funny how non-dutch-people think of The Netherlands. That's the link to cannabis. ;)

We have one windmill in this village. It's 15 minutes driving...



There isn't any dyke nearby (well, if I travel 2 hours, I'm sure I see one). But The Netherlands have them :)
