In lieu of a proper search engine Hey, this is weirdal. You could also read the entire Archive, in which case you get an A for effort! Meg of Skokie, IL asks: Al, how appropriate or inappropriate is the tour material in terms of a yr-old? Thank you very much! I see every demographic in the audience at my live shows, from toddlers to geriatrics.
Of course, the video is available on iTunes in fact, it was the 1 best-selling music video for a couple months! Actually, when the animator Doug Bresler sent me his original animatic, the character in the video did in fact look a lot like me.
I think I got Donny Osmondβ¦. Can we ask what inspiration they provided you with? We ourselves are not beer-swilling hockey nuts, but we do know several, eh. At the last minute, I decided against recording the song for the album, but if you come to one of my live shows this summer, you may hear a snippet of it somewhere in the medleyβ¦. Back to the Ask Al Index. Cliff of Somewhere Around Detroit, Michigan asks: Al, you usually only have a couple of videos for each album. Why do six although I appreciate the extra work that you, the band and the behind-the-scenes people do so fans like me can watch more amazing videos than ever for Straight Outta Lynwood?
It all began a couple years ago, when my record label suggested that I consider doing a DualDisc release. I decided early on that I wanted to do 5. David C. The album was always going to be called Straight Outta Lynwood and have some kind of gangsta imagery on it. For the record, all of the photographs for the album were taken on April 22, by Michael Blackwell. Strangely enough, while the photographer was taking pictures of me in front of that Chevy Impala convertible, a young couple walked by with a pit bull.
Anyway, we wound up liking that particular shot so much that it wound up as the cover image. The picture that I originally intended to be the cover is now on the back of the CD case. There are a lot of great pictures in the package β the DualDisc comes with a page full-color booklet! What was I thinking? Thanks for setting me straight.
