Geez....how many wacky Grammy poses can that guy come up with???


You are allowed to be serious at times, you know....

Congratulations to Al and The Band!

I will take all the Grammy pics of Al I can get, serious or not.



Patti

Yay, Al!

As many as he wants?

Okay, here's the big questions I have for everyone:

1) How much will this win affect the lagging sales of Poodle Hat? Will it go Gold? Platinum? Myr?

2) Many of us have assumed that the Eminem fiasco and lack of Poodle Hat sales would result in a speedier release of his next album. How will the Grammy win affect that? Will the next album come out sooner or later?

3) Is it too late for Al to do a second video for Poodle Hat? I mean, he has plenty of reason to promote it again. The spring tour, the Grammy win, possible re-airing of ALTV.

4) What's for lunch?

Hmm, good questions, Jeremy. I don't really know the answers. But I have part of an article and a quote from Al from Variety.com:

Although Weird Al Yankovic commented on the numerous companies he had to thank during his acceptance speech for his win for comedy album for "Poodle Hat," he didn't have much of an opinion on recent media mergers: "I just assume (the work) is going to be handled by someone who knows what they're doing." As for a topic closer to his heart, when asked if music is too risque, Yankovic commented, "It's exactly raunchy enough."

Congrats, Al!

who just saw that Bobbi posted this same article in the "Grammy winners announced" thread oops!

He did that instead of making a speech obviously

And here's my wild-guess answers.

Probably just a little bit. The bit on E will probably help most.

2) Many of us have assumed that the Eminem fiasco and lack of Poodle Hat sales would result in a speedier release of his next album.  How will the Grammy win affect that?  Will the next album come out sooner or later?

I don't think winning a Grammy could possibly slow down Al's creative process. He said last year that he planned to start writing in January, so it's probably not going to be another nearly-four-year wait.

3) Is it too late for Al to do a second video for Poodle Hat?  I mean, he has plenty of reason to promote it again.  The spring tour, the Grammy win, possible re-airing of ALTV. 

Yes, probably.

4) What's for lunch?

In view of all the "probablys" in my answer, I'd have to say, "Fudge."

Considering who else won Grammys last night, you know what the best thing about this win is?
It wasn't posthumous.

I'm very glad about that!
