I was watching this show "back in 1991" & Weird Al was talking on it! I saw it 2 days ago, also I recently saw the Simpsons eppisode with Al in it.
Me too! It was on Much or Much More Music, eh? Al was talking about how Arnold Schwarzenegebooger (however you spell it) played a cold, ruthless bloodthirsty killer in the Terminator, which made him a perfect candidate for governor of California. Or something like that.
Sorry if it was in the wrong topic, I may have many posts on here but notice it's manly in the games. Well I'm a WWE fan first, hockey second. Hockey night at my house, yikes. Dad likes Red Wings, Bro-in-law likes Montreal, Cousin likes Calgary. Woah! Am I ever off topic lol. Ok, well since I saw Al on tv I wasn't sure where I was 'spose to post it. Sorry if by doing so I have destroyed any lives. But then again, I AM 'spose to be being "evil" for the week. So wah-ha-haaa!!!!!
During the Bad Hair Tour, Al arrived a day (or two) early in Asheville, NC and he gave a great radio "interview" on WZLS.
About halfway through it, partial reality returned to my star-struck brain: "Hey, the radio studio is a mere 10 minute drive from where I live!"
You know I've never been in a real studio before, and I gotta tell you it was really great.
I mean, I was expecting locked doors, security guards, hoards of out-of-their-mind-fans (exactly like me) and I braced myself to beg and plead against the "big brush-off" in order to get my Compleat Al promotional poster autographed.
Boy was I ever wrong about that.
"Hi! Come on in! Hang out! Meet Al! (please be respectful when we're live on the air)." was the type of reception I received.
In awe, I was in presence of the great weird one for over an hour.
During one of the commercial breaks, when Al and the DJ decided to cue up TNSWC, I chimed in: "Extra gory version!". It was subtle, but I could tell that AL liked that prospect. Alas, there wasn't a copy of TNSWC:EGV available at the time.
A lesson learned: If you're going to meet Al during a live broadcast, bring your alternate cuts and cd singles and rarities and the like.
Wow! That sounds awesome, tessaigapants. =D We used to live down the street from a radio station but, unfortunately, it shut down years ago. :<
Man, if I had an unexpected Al encounter, I'd... I dunno. XD I would likely lose all ability to speak and/or stand. But, HEY. If I could get someone to carry me over there and if Al can read lips, I'd be set!
=P
Are we playin' horseshoes, honey? No, I don't think we are...

WZLS has also been shut down. The story plays out a little like UHF, except that the greedy suits won.
Yea, I had difficulty being coherent and functional during the experience.
Wow, that is a very cool story, tessaigapants! I've met Al twice, but have never had an unexpected Al encounter. I was relatively calm for the ones I was "prepared" for, but I think I wouldn't be quite so calm if it were a surprise.
I saw it 2 days ago, also I recently saw the Simpsons eppisode with Al in it.
