And here are the images of the magazine.. I got it from Josh, who is Editor in Chief of the Royal Flush Magazine. He was kind enough to send me the pages of the interview for those who'd like to see them.

Thanks for the pictures, WhiZZi. Too bad he called him the Polish Prince of Parody, though, because he's not Polish. Looks like a pretty nice layout. Where is this magazine available?
4 words that Al said to me that blew me away:

"How's Problem Child doing?" - 7/12/11

So awesome!

Notice how the images on the right hand side of page 36 are all directly from the Mothership. ;) I really like that drawing of Ghandi! I wish the text in the interview was large enough to read though.

I really hope Al meant that the rest of the house is strictly free of Weird Al memorabilia.

For Al's own house to be "strickly [sic] Al-free" would be sad. :(
"Weird Al" has a charisma that's all his own. The awkward, the misshapen, the socially inept flock to his banner.

That article looks really well put together, except the image is so tough to read. I think I got most of it, but not all of it. BUt what I read was good.
