World of Weird Al Yankovic

I totally wish I could share everybody's pain...
My pain is I never, and might as well not ever have the chance to see Al. Not even bump into him randomly in public.
Not even once in my life.
I feel alone in the "Ones who will never meet Al" group.

I love him to death as well.

Youtube

I've been so moved by everyone in these last few posts that I had to share this clip of him. He's so sensitive and so beautiful that I started to cry. The words are silly, but there is so much more than the words in this clip.

I've been listening to eBay (and I Want It That Way) on repeat for the past hour so this is EXACTLY what I needed right now. him caveman profile aaaaa

;n; That is NOT TRUE!


I know, because what you said there was in my head for YEARS and even in the months before I was profoundly blessed with Al coming near my town.
EVERY circumstance was against me. What with two failed attempts and begs to see Al years ago, I too thought I'd never get to see him.

But patience was key as well as trying, and wishing! Don't let ANYONE tell you that wishing and waiting (with confidence that you WILL see him, someday soon) doesn't work because IT DOES.
Don't you let your heart sink that way- mine did, but because I had hope, I was rewarded beyond my wildest dreams.

And so will you. !!

I think what I find the hardest is that the memory isn't as clear as it was straight after seeing him. Of course I remember pretty clearly (I'll never forget the experience!), but it isn't as vivid. I just want to feel the way he leant his head against me again!!.

THIIIIIS THIS THIS THIS EXACTLY!


HAD to reply to this too, because oh my gosh THAT is exactly what's bugging me more than anything!
Sometimes I lie awake before falling asleep at night, and I want to remember every single feeling, every thought (if I had any) that went through my head when I got out of my seat, followed him to the farthest right- the edge of the bottom of the stage, just away from the chairs, and I stood in front of him.
I try hard to remember his face, his smile, his sparkling eyes.
And his warm palm against mine when he suddenly took my hand and gave me a sort of high-five but not really... it was soft, but not too soft, but... just... nice. @u@

And it is STILL A BLUR. But it was already a blur 24 hours after that night, so that's just a bit of a consolation...

... gah... _{I love 'im so much ;.;}

For me, the most intense feelings of emptiness and missing him happen during and right after the concert the most. The rest of the time isn't as bad as the moment it's over, because when it ends that's it, you don't have any other plans and you don't know what you're gonna do without the experience you just had not happening any more and it's very upsetting. At least the rest of the time you can distract yourself easier and even pull up videos and songs to put on repeat if it gets real bad. I've actually cried during shows more than months after them, but I'm also just a hot mess. (it's a very small amount but it's still been more I think.)

I think we handle and go through the grief in different ways. I feel like my grief differs greatly from all your grief which is fine, just different. I'm just not sure how to relate sometimes when my experience feels so different from everyone else's I guess.

This got weird, sorry. Here's a pic of Al:



(NOW it's weird!!!!! Eh?? Eh?????)

DOUBLE POST TO SAY

I edited the first post of this topic in an attempt to give a better description for what Yankochick Central is about. Hope it's good.

Here's another picture of Al to make up for the double post:

If any of you have noticed, (I'm assuming none of you have) I joined the forum 1 day after my first weird al concert. Before the concert, I was kind of a fan. my sister (stardraw123) would fangirl about him all the time, so I just rolled with it. I was a big fan, but I wasn't as crazy about him as I am now. Nonetheless, I was still extremely excited for the concert! In fact I wouldn't stop begging my dad if we could go. I even gave up my regular birthday celebration for this concert, since the concert was only a few days after my birthday. I told my dad that I would rather do this than a normal birthday, and that's how I got my dad to buy the tickets. Anyways, the concert was amazing! However, after the concert I was so filled with enthusiasm, that I started shaking ALOT It wasn't a bad feeling though.. I was just super happy. (I got the same exact feeling when he liked a post of mine on instagram, and my sister said the same thing happened to her after the concert) Soooo while we were in the car driving back home, I fell asleep, and when I woke up I was extremely said that the concert was over. It just hit me that I wasn't there anymore. The next day I was still sad about it, so I watched a bunch of videos with Al in them. I was begging my sister to show me more about him, and she eventually directed me to the forum. though she only told me the abbreviation, I searched up WOWAY weird al forum, and I found it! She was begging me not to check a topic called "yankochick central" , so... I checked the topic. Once I hit page 19 and 20, and I saw those amazing gifs (you know the ones im talking about ) EVERYTHING STOPPED. I completely fell in love with him... I spent so much time looking at pictures of him, and watching videos, and I noticed how adorable he is, AND HES SO AMAZING <3 I made an account, and now I spend everyday looking at videos and pictures of him

Never say never! I know it's pretty easy for those of us who have seen him to sit back and say this; however, one thing I can say about Al is that he is he is pretty accessible to his fans, much more so than a lot of other celebrities! He knows we love him and he provides opportunities for us to be close to him - and I love him for that! If you're determined enough to see him I'm sure it'll happen eventually. So hang in there!

Sailor, ahh I know I keep saying this but everything you say rings true for me as well! I often try to remember all the little details I experienced whilst seeing him. There are so many little moments I'd love to relive! I really hope I get to see him again and soon!

chickadee, that video is gorgeous! Ahh I love him!

I feel lonely here

I want to see an image of Al, I haven't seen a brand new one on here for around a day...

If you're here, here's a sad and lonely hello
