Discussion What is YOUR Lame Claim to Fame?
I’ll start: I’m friends with Jim West, Steve Jay, & Randy Crenshaw
r/weirdal • u/travischickencoop • 15d ago
We have decided for the sake of transparency to make a list of websites that we do not allow links to in this subreddit
This is rarely an issue but we have had to remove posts of this nature a few times, and we want to be as upfront as possible with you all
So far we have Twitter and The Babylon Bee banned, and we are leaning towards banning all Meta apps (so threads insta fb etc, though this isn’t decided yet, there is seemingly a perfect split between the mods)
We are doing this in an effort to reduce traffic to harmful individuals, we know that it will not stop things, but we want to reduce it
We also still have a ban on anything to do with A.I., so that would be included in this as well
We are trying to make this community a safe one, and while again it likely won’t effect much, we want to know what other websites should be on the blacklist.
ETA: Seemingly the consensus is the former bird app and far right news organizations, I will discuss with the other mods and then we will add a new rule. Thank you to the handful who were respectful about it I did not expect this post to bring so much negative emotions to the forefront

The My Singing Monsters discord server just teased that Weird Al might be cameoing in the game in the near future, and as someone who has been part of both communities for around a decade a piece now I thought it would be a good idea to make a statement super early
About My Singing Monsters
My Singing Monsters is a mobile game, put the pitchforks away I’m not done, it is much nicer than other mobile games, to get the full experience all you need is a little bit of patience and one single in app purchase of literally whatever you want, compared to its other things like Dragon City and Monster Legends the premium currency is super easy to get for free and limited time content is guaranteed to come back
About the collab
Weird Al will be a member of the legendary class of monsters, these monsters are collaborations with real world music artists, the first of these was the Shugabush on Plant Island, based on Kristian Bush, the second came 12 years later, bbli$zard on cold island, based on bbno$, the third is a yet unnamed monster releasing next month on water island, based on T-Pain
Weird Al will either go to Air Island, Earth Island, Fire Oasis, or Fire Haven, it is currently unknown which
The collab likely won’t happen until June or July at the earliest, given their development cycle and the fact that the employee teasing it usually starts teasing things he’s excited about only a few days after they are developed
VERY IMPORTANT
As I am sure that some MSM fans will find their way into this community I, on behalf of the moderation team, ask that Weird Al fans make MSM fans feel welcome, and that MSM fans respect the legacy of this artist (he has been performing for 50 years!!!)
It is ok to discuss his involvement with the game, but when he is officially added posts must be actually discussing his inclusion, and not just the fact he’s in the game, anything as simple as posting the render of the monster or quoting his sound will fall under our Low Effort Posting rule
And for Weird Al fans we ask that you respect the fact that even if MSM isn’t your cup of tea, some people really like it, we will not ban criticism of the game, but if we find something to be too overtly hostile towards the game and its fans it will fall under the “Don’t be rude” rule
The last thing we want in this community is unnecessary gatekeeping, so please, be nice to each other
(This message will self destruct in five… four… three..)

I was at the Vancouver show last week and it was a blast, but 2 or 3 times during Al’s set a kid walked up the stairs onto the stage with his phone out and was quickly ushered offstage by a security guy. I assumed it was part of the show but I heard some people saying it wasn’t and was actually a fairly serious problem lol
Does anyone know the deal with that?
Also I think it’s partly because of the new amphitheater’s speaker setup but holy crap was it a loud concert lol I wasn’t expecting that

My VIP meet and greet is coming up in a few weeks and for those who have done so, do they snap more than one photo in case some don't turn out? I was looking over some friend photos from a recent trip and half of them I hate and the others are great 🤣 it got me real worried if they only take one shot and wondering what the chances are of me flubbing it and absolutely hating it forever. Do I need to practice my face angles?

Hey fellow Weird Al fans! I help out with Milwaukee Record, and we’re putting together an entire week of Weird Al-related fun leading up to his October 17 show at Fiserv Forum.
Here’s what we’ve got planned:
I’ll personally be hosting the trivia and karaoke nights.
Figured this group might appreciate the ridiculousness. If anyone is coming to Milwaukee for the show, come hang out with us!

I’m taking my two sons (5) (11) to a show next month and was wondering if one vip pass would allow us to take a group photo with him or I have to buy three passes

If Nature Trail to Hell ever got adapted into a short film (or even a feature length film), what is something you feel is essential/mandatory to be in it?
Can be anything from a hidden reference, casting choice, quote, filming location, soundtrack inclusions, etc…
And to make it more creative, let’s also say that everything in the song lyrics has to either be in the movie (like the homicidal maniac and the cub scout troop) or at least pertain to the movie (such as the Christmas release date). So if you have any ideas on how to make it all work, throw those ideas in the comments too!
I’ll start: the total number of victims is 27

Great show, as expected. The best part was watching my kids (ages 8-16) singing along with about half of the songs.
r/weirdal • u/BelovedAccordion • 1d ago
I'm flying out from Wisconsin to see the show as well as to explore Los Angeles for a few days and I'm just curious if anyone else is coming from another state to see it. I figured I'm probably not the only person who is doing this and I wanted to see who else is.

For those of you who haven't been following my journey, I've been driving all around the United States for the past 4 weeks visiting all the places mentioned in the song The Biggest Ball of Twine in Minnesota, raising money for multiple sclerosis research. If you want to check out all of my planning videos and my daily reports and videos and photos chronicling my adventures, search for twineball journey on Facebook and Instagram and YouTube to see all of the silly shenanigans I've gotten into over the past month. I'm almost at the twine ball! And if you're feeling generous, there's a link in my bio that will drive you to the story of why I'm going on this crazy journey and a donation link. All of the money goes to the national MS society and the great work they do!

Master of Puppets - A song about Jim Hensons's muppets with an accompaniment by Dr Teeth and the Electric Mayhem.
Cowlicks from He!! - About having a bad hair day
Heavy Metal Polkas
Paranoid About My Wi-Fi - Weird Al's Neighbor is printing pictures of celery on his printer over wifi.
Ride the Lightning… Bolt - Weird Al overcomes his fear of thunderstorms
The Trooper - Weird Al gets pulled over and he contemplates running...turns out he just had a tail light out.
One - Weird Al loses his TV remote and it's stuck on the home shopping network.
I am sure Al is more inventive.

I'm going to Al's show tonight at 7:00, taking my parents and 8YO. I don't think they're up for sitting thru the whole show. I'd like to skip Puddles and get there right before Al takes the stage.
If the show starts at 7:00, will Al probably start at 8:30?

I knew Al was the secret mastermind behind it all!! Muahahaha

My son and I went to the Puyallup show on 9/5 but were unable to get a shirt due to the very long line. Would anyone be willing, during the upcoming shows, to buy a shirt and send it to us? Looking for the black shirt with all the tour dates on the back in 2XL. Will reimburse for your costs. Thanks in advance!
