Hmm..... I remember hearing something about Al on Southpark (not in actuality, but in you know... impersonation...) and he was hitting on some goth guy O_O YEah, I'm very glad to know that they where referring to THAT bit o' weirdness posted a few posts ago

That wasn't Al. That was Kenny G.

Oh boy! I was looking through a friends ipod and I saw that they had Weird Al in their music selection and I was shocked. I thought "how cool!" Then I had to do a double take and it was spelled Weird Al Yancovich!! I gringed! I had to come on this forum to tell about it.

That happens with me quite often. I kind of lecture the poor people. They're like, "Oh.. okay..okay.."

i have one friend who STILL pronounces it Yonkavickacheizzy, even after a full year of me correcting her.

EDIT: oh geez, does the spellchecker do that with a -itch too??

I was looking up Al in stories on the death of Michael Jackson, and guess how someone misspelled his name this time!

"My favorite song is "Eat It" by Weird Al Yankowich, which never would have come about without the influence of Jackson."

I've heard 'Weird Al', 'Wired Al', 'Yank-o-vich', and 'Jankovich' but seriously, YankoWICH?!? You couldn't have looked up his name?!?! And I found an article from a legitimate newspaper spelling his name 'Yank-o-vich', talking about his Twitter page. His Twitter name is alYANKOVIC!!!

AAAAAHHHHHHHHHH!!!!

Maybe they were hungry for a sandWICH.
