For all you fans of Weird Al Yankovik (and who among us ISN'T?!), his drummer Jon "Bermuda" Schwartz is selling the ACTUAL DRUM SET he used on tour with Weird Al! Wow! I mean... wow! Imagine owning a piece of musical history like this?! I bet it was also played on such hits as... um... well, I am sure you know the hits.

DON'T MISS OUT ON THIS ONCE IN A LIFETIME CHANCE!! YOU WILL KICK YOURSELF LATER!!

Hey, I kind of like that "Weird Al".

It's pretty useless "music", and he's certainly no Spike Jones. But he has made me smile from time to time.

I mean, he put Dick Van Patten in the bleacher scene in the video for "Smells Like Nirvana". He also pissed off Coolio, which is a funny thing to me. "Weird Al" also strikes me as a legitimate, dyed-in-the-wool nerd with no concept of "cool", which is a great thing to me.

These things are worth something to me.

A friend of mine moved to LA about three years ago and said the only differences between LA and Chicago is the weather and that he often sees Weird Al eating hamburgers from time to time.

True story.

i know way too many people like this, and let me tell you, once they band together it's no different than any other 'scene'. there is nothing worse than overhearing a bunch of arrogant, buger eating computer nerds in the lab pat each other on the back for talking down to someone because they didn't how to access their email server via pine. i don't see how that's any different than the indie rock scum that hang out at the rainbo club and rip on people for their shoes or haircut, etc.
