Thanks Doc!The Doctor @ June 10, 2009 04:33 am wrote: Am I the only one who had the idea to save the mp3 of the preview?
Here?
Should be ok, since it's technically a publicly released clip.

HOLY GOD AL DID A DOORS STYLE PARODY!!! AWESOME AWESOME AWESOME AWESOME AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Maybe THIS is the video Liam Lynch did? You wouldn't want to do a video to a Doors style parody without the unique kind of crazy f'd-up imagery Liam is notorious for...and Liam's videos often tend to be live action/animation hybrids, so THAT could be why Al was on that crash diet - he had to get as skinny as possible so he could properly look like Jim Morrison!
And, obviously, THAT's why Al posted that Twit Pic of him with Ray Manzarek - like Ben Folds and Dweezil before him, Ray was in the studio to give Al's tribute some of that sweet sweet unique authentic Dooooooors sound!
When that track becomes available, I'm gonna dub it to an eight-track tape and steal a car. I already own one, but I'm gonna steal a car, get in that car, play the tape full blast, and drive west. When the tape ends, I'll get out, go to the nearest bar, and start to play pool, or pinball, or possibly even fooz-ball, and wait to get into a fight. Afterwards, I'll get back into the car and drive it till it runs out of gas. Then, I'll torch it. And if, as I'm standing there, watching those flames, I can still hear the Craigslist sound, then I will have become AN AL FAN!

MP3 downloads are for housewives and little girls!

Well grow up and get your sundress on, because this is the way Al's rolling now, antoinette.

Well, that leaves me out, too, because I'm a homemaker...get with the program. I'm not married to my house, thankyouverymuch!anthontherun @ June 10, 2009 01:07 am wrote: MP3 downloads are for housewives and little girls!
Seriously, I'm looking forward to this! Fred, I hope you're right about Liam Lynch..that'd be cool.

You didn't build it either. So, we can't call you a housewife OR a homemaker. How about we just call you "unemployed"?algonacchick @ June 10, 2009 08:13 am wrote: Well, that leaves me out, too, because I'm a homemaker...get with the program. I'm not married to my house, thankyouverymuch!

It's strange seeing you throw puns out there BTD...I know it's been a while since I've been here, but has your outlook on puns changed that drastically?Bruce the Duck @ June 10, 2009 06:58 am wrote: You didn't build it either.

Thanks for posting a link to that clip of "Craiglist", which I burned onto a CD and will be playing several times on my radio show this Sunday ("Dark Side of the Highway", WHUS 91.7 FM at the University of Connecticut, listen online at whus.org, Sundays 4 AM to 6 AM Eastern Standard Time)...
