Unboxing video for my "WEIRD AL" YANKOVIC IN 3-D book

I posted on here before about how I was hired by 33 1/3 to write a book on "WEIRD AL" YANKOVIC IN 3-D. Well, the book is DONE! I just received my author copies, and I'm ready to show you some. The book includes new interview material with Al, Jon "Bermuda" Schwartz, Jay Levey, and Dr. Demento. It also includes some of Bermuda's photographs that didn't make the cut for his coffee table books that he generously let me use.

If you want to get the IN 3-D book for yourself, I have set up a bunch of links to popular book retailers here:
https://linktr.ee/weird_al_in_3d

As the video says, the book comes out November 12, with the e-book arriving earlier on October 15.

I am going to be signing copies ordered from Skylight Books in Los Angeles, California, or from my hometown record store, Culture Clash Records in Toledo, Ohio.

I am just really excited that folks are finally get a chance to check out this book. I am very proud of it.

Which Weird Al parodies are objectively better than the original? I'll start: Party in the CIA

I mean, Party in the USA is just trite, there's no story, no movement in the lyrics. Barely any change as you go through and she's name dropping other artists just for the name drop.

Party in the CIA however has a story, things escalate. he changes the chorus each time a bit as the story moves, and even his arrangement has a lot more going on than the original.

Rubén is going back on tour!

Rubén has been fighting bladder cancer for the last few months. It had always been the hope that he would get back out on the road after the break and it looks like he got the ok! Richard Thomas did an admirable job, but Rubén is truly one of a kind.

I’m working on drawing a portrait of Weird Al. It’s still a work in progress but I wanted to share the process so far.

It’s only now I realize I never shared with y’all my performance of Jurassic Park I did for a school event a few months ago…
