Well, to be accurate, Al doesn't perform most of the rare songs we discuss around here anymore. Actually, I'm pretty sure Al has never performed "Hit Me With A Rock", aside from when he recorded it.HappyGilmore @ May 7 2007, 09:59 PM wrote: How would one hear these unreleased songs outside of actually attending a concert? Al never really seems to hit my city, yet hits cities where I have to drive like an hour or more to go. And seeing as nobody I know wants to go to an AL concert, I'm guessing there's no actual recordings?

And WHiZZi also made it very clear in his first post ever, that "this forum is not intended to share your Weird Al MP3 collection or any other illegal stuph", and hasn't changed his mind since, so the least you could do is respect the guy who brought this Forum to life. I think the "no bootleg" rule is part of the reason Al and Bermuda and the guys in the band unofficially support the Forum so much. There are plenty of other places online to trade rarities or bootlegs. Let's not do it here, please.scottidog @ Apr 27 2007, 09:16 PM wrote: The thinking (at least for me) is that the unreleased stuff is unreleased for a reason. Usually that Al doesn't have permission for them. And yes, yes. We all know he doesn't NEED permission for a parody, but that's just the way he's chosen to do business, so we should respect that.

You'd have to ask Philo, since he knows all of the secrets of the universe.27-77 @ Mar 9 2008, 06:22 PM wrote: Wait a minute...
If I can't send people the rare songs that they're looking for, how come people are distributing GFB?
...back on topic:
I love this song. It's got a great beat, but I didn't know it was a parody of a Paul Simon song until I did more research on it.

I got permission from the mods right at the beginning to distribute GfB (and SOL Naked) via PM's.
As for Bermuda, I've brought up the topic to him... he doesn't know what GfB is, and probably could care less. I mean, Al explicitly said that he didn't mind the fans trading around his early demos and stuff, and 95% of the material on there has been bootlegged to the nth degree, so it doesn't matter.
I even think barring links to stuff like "Belvedere Cruising" in the forum is going against Al's word a little bit, because like I said, he even stated that he doesn't care.
