I'm not sure how many fans of his there are overseas, but in case there is anyone interested, this is an interesting and delightful article I read today. Weird Al Yankovic

Have always enjoyed his humor. The nerd's Frank Zappa without original music.

He was "the band" for a season of the fairly obscure American TV show "Comedy Bang Bang"

Weird Al Yankovic Revels (Modestly) in His ‘Comedy Bang! Bang!’ Gig (Published 2016)

Accustomed to a career mix of recognition and indifference, the musical comedian says he was eager to give the show, starting a fifth season on Friday, a whirl.

In my opinion, his videos are even better than the cds.

My kids grew up watching and listening to him and still enjoy his weirdness!

When I taught beginning band my 6th graders could "earn" what I called a "free day" where they could eat candy and snacks in class and listen to CD's they could bring themselves. I was astonished to find that many of them brought in Weird Al recordings. It's kind of weird that he appeals to all ages.
