I took this photo of "Weird Al" Yankovic at the godspeed you! black emperor-curated ATP festival in December last year...
His set was fantastic fun.

can't get "Here's Johnny" out of my head even though that song is stupidly unfunny

Thanks! I really enjoyed his set. Within the context of the rest of the festival it was really quite different, in a good way. I wholly applaud gy!be for asking him to play the event.

i remember having some convos with some of the more chin-strokey types there about "how do you think al will be recieved?" since it was basically The Wire Tapper in festival format. The answer was WITH RAPTUROUS OPEN ARMS.
I was in the front row. :D
