I think this ALendar is really going to be special to our boy because of all the love put into it. Great work to all the artists and their helpers. I'm proud to be in the company of all of you.

Exactly -- even with such an eclectic mix of styles and concepts, the common thread through every page is the love for Al and his work, and I think it comes through very well... thanks again to all the artists for all their hard work on their respective entries. :Y

Well, you contributed a great deal yourself, Adrian! Thank you very much for that!

BTW, if the reference for May is too oblique, it's a variation of "Weasels Ripped My Flesh" by Frank Zappa. The cover was quite controversial when it was released, but I just couldn't bring myself to make it "Hamsters Ripped My Flesh", so I toned it down a bit.

Just in case anyone was confused :blink:

I think everyone did a splendiforous job on their artwork! You can just feel the love oozing out each page. Eeewwww. I grossed myself out.

Hey, I don't usually read this thread but I just saw the finished product and it really looks awesome. Congratulations to everyone who did the artwork and I love the 12 album theme!

Agreed. That was an excellent job on the Emergency Stand-In Page. :Y
"Weird Al" has a charisma that's all his own. The awkward, the misshapen, the socially inept flock to his banner.
