Weird Al knows how to put on a show. During a two-hour concert last night before a capacity crowd at Cain Park, the satirist did a bit of everything. He changed into a countless number of different outfits and played funny, home-made videos in which he took clips of celebrity interviews and inserted his own colorful commentary. This was a crowd-pleasing concert that catered to both the families and hipsters in attendance.
The wardrobe changes alone made the whole thing worthwhile.

  1. Weird Al is…weird…but we love him. Please don’t make fun at the especially gifted genius’s deficits (this is PC for him being retarded). Theologically: “We can be saved even as he” (and if he can straighten up and fly right we promise to put in a good word for him). We (his friends) will dedicate our lives to finding a cure. And please remember God loves the little children so maybe even “weird” will grow up.
