You're a friend of Jim's? Cool! Do you mind if we ask how you know him?

I saw that. Forgot to mention it in all the excitement of knowing which days the album is NOT being recorded on. I love the song I listened to. If I'm ever employed again, I may just get the new album and Coconut Hat. I love Coconut Hat.

Sorry it took me so long to get back to you!

Well, my wife and I met Jim a couple of years ago. We went from being email buddies to friends of his. How? I don't know. How does anyone go from being casual to an actual friend?

We've supported his music and his life. Jim is a very sweet, caring guy. By the way, he is also very funny!

Anyway, Jim listed my wife and my name on his new CD. We really wanted to hear his music. We talked and emailed back and forth. Really pushed him to get the CD out. Now that we have heard it, we are thrilled. And to get the CD's early along with a poster... amazing.

Jim is a great friend of ours and we do cherish it as we do all of our friends.

That's cool! I've only gotten to speak to Jim once, and he was nice, but seemed very shy.

Thanks for the applied kinetics, Dave! :Y
"Weird Al" has a charisma that's all his own. The awkward, the misshapen, the socially inept flock to his banner.

That's really cool, Dave! I can't wait to hear the new cd now!
4 words that Al said to me that blew me away:

"How's Problem Child doing?" - 7/12/11

So awesome!

Hi all.

I've talked to Jim and he is interested in doing a Q&A session like Bermuda did a couple of years ago. I've emailed Scottidog to work some time for this. Jim is a busy guy these days with touring, marketing, and recording the new Al CD. I will work with him on a good time schedule and we will get this thing going!

Get your questions ready! He's got a lot of really good stories from over the years!
