Sorry to double post, but I just got a Google Alert containing this article. It's fairly generic, but still a nice mention. I wonder about the July release business. Again, I'm not going to believe anything unless I hear it from The Mothership. I just wonder where they got that info.
Oh by the way, I've cracked the code.

I came upon the "Entertainment Weekly" blurb earlier today and yes, that is big. Along with the NPR article from yesterday, it's nice to see that Al's getting some mainstream press because of this. I mean, no offense to IGN of course, but I have a feeling more IGN regulars already knew about the download before more EW readers did.

And yeah, I don't know where that July release date came from. It just sounds like someone got their rumors and past tidbits mixed up or something.


Edit: And how appropriate that there's also a Dutch news blurb.

I'm sick of this "parody retirement" BS. There was such a thing as Poodle Hat, foo's!

What he said. You'd think that an entertainment magazine would have noticed a Grammy! :rolleyes:
"Weird Al" has a charisma that's all his own. The awkward, the misshapen, the socially inept flock to his banner.

Man, if I could read that, I would be so proud. :P

Anyway, I think that it is great that all this publicity the song is getting. Like someone mentioned earlier, with the tour circut. Going to all the shows, hopefully performing You're Pitiful. Al on Conan!!! :D That would be awesome (Has that happened yet?)

Nope, it hasn't, although one would think we're approaching the perfect time to start suggesting that to the show.

You're probably thinking of Craig "Not My Cup of Tea" Kilbourne.
