Saw Weird Al this weekend. He did Skipper Dan live and wore what looked to this stupid guest to be an authentic Jungle Cruise outfit when doing it.
He even had a name badge, but we were too far away to read it.
Weird Al
Forum rules
At the old Disney Hyperion Studio, the screening room where animators would show animated scenes to Walt for his approval was small, with no ventilation or AC. Not only was it hot, but the animators were nervously awaiting Walt's reaction to their work. Thus, the room became known as the Sweatbox. Even after the Studio moved to Burbank and elegant screening rooms were offered to the staff, the moniker remained.
Now SGT has a sweatbox of our own. This is the place to find and post all entertaining topics such as video links, jokes, games, and the like. A general rule of thumb is that if the thread is meant to be informative (interesting news stories for example), or a topic for discussion (like setting up a park meet) then it should go in the Break Room, but if the intent is to entertain the masses then it's home is The Sweatbox. I'm sure there will be grey areas at times, so if you have doubt as to where a new thread should go, just use your best judgement and the SGT Staff will be glad to move it later if you guessed wrong.

Awesome. I'd love to see him live. I understand he performs a lot of spoofs live that he can't record!Buggy wrote:Saw Weird Al this weekend. He did Skipper Dan live and wore what looked to this stupid guest to be an authentic Jungle Cruise outfit when doing it.

I have to confess that you made my heart skip a bit when I saw this thread's title -- I was scared it would continue, "...will not be down...."

Re: Weird Al
Sorry about that. Didn't mean to alarm you. I'm sure he is enjoying breakfast even as we speak.
And yeah, he always puts on a great show. He opened with an entirely new polka mix. I only recognized a couple of songs, but it was cool. He did a bunch of the Internet Leaks songs too. Also "Let Me Be Your Hog," from UHF (as requested by his twitter followers apparently).
