I love how he treats us. Any other celebrity would shrug off their fans as if they were nothing, but Al gets to know us. In a way, it feels like we all are his friends and I like that. Even if someone is tongue-tied and loses their ability to speak in front of him, he is extremely patient and lets them get it out, no matter how long it takes. I also love his freakishly good memory. How does he do it?

love ALWAYs

He does have a good memory, Tasha. He remembered me from AlCon after two years! He even knew how to spell my name without anyone telling him when Karen (that was her sn here. She hasn't been here in a long time) had him sign that Poodle Hat cd for me. *There's a long story attached, but it was really sweet of her to have him do that*

Gah, I forgot to say that.

It's not what I like best about him. But it is an aspect that I enjoy a lot.

I can't just pick one reason.

You can like him no matter how young or old you are.
He makes you laugh.
He doesn't really care what other people think of him.
His dedication to and appreciation of all us fans.
He's funny and successful without resorting to profanity or inappropriate themes (which is VERY hard to do, especially nowadays)
If you meet him for the very first time, he talks to you like he's known you for years.
He is a breath of fresh air from all the oh-so-EMOtional stuff out there.
He can out-rock guys half his age.
He's saved so many people. (from WHAT, I will not go into, but he has definitely saved some)
He is a very attractive man.

Accordions are sexxxy.

I could go on and on and on...

What I like best about Al is how he inspires people. It can be to draw, to write, to sing, to laugh, to look at things differently, even to get by a tough spot in life. I'm yet to meet him in person, but from the stories I've heard and the concerts I've been I know that Al carries this radiance about him that rubs off on everyone he meets.

Best thing about Al: All of his CDs are exactly the same diameter! Trust me, I measured them all! That's amazing!

Yes, very few artists are able to make all of their CDs the exact same diameter.

Maybe for his next cd he'll use this shape:

All at once, what I like best about Al:

Great sense of humor
Great looks
Great music
Great morals
Great memory
Did I mention great looks?

Inspired me to become vegetarian
Really nice to and appreciative of his fans
Really grounded and not "I'm a celebrity rock star; therefore, I'm better than you"
Just an all around great guy.

Need I say more?
