h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

Ever since I was a kid I always loved Weird Al Yankovic and last night I finally got to see him in concert! I went with 3 of my friends and it was awesome! He sang so many of his classics like Amish Paradise, Fat, Like a Surgeon, etc. as well as the ones from his new album Running with Scissors, and he even did a bunch of little improvs like a song about pizza to the tune of the Titanic theme. He changed his clothes for some of them like a fat suit for Fat and a hospital gown for Like a Surgeon. The best was when me and my friends stood up during Amish Paradise and started doing "the wave" and Weird Al looked right at us and motioned for the audience to start doing it and they did! Oh my God he is so funny. If you've only heard his songs on tape or cd you haven't seen half of what that guy has to offer! Weird Al has inspired me to write parodies of my own over the past few years and next Tuesday I sing them for my biggest crowd ever, probably over a hundred people. He was just like me in high school, the weird kid who wrote goofy songs and look where he landed. I still have my mind set on being a historian but if I every get a lucky break, he is my inspiration. But if I learned anything last night it was that wherever I go with my little comedy bit, I will never NEVER outstage the master! I know I sound like a freak talking about Weird Al Yankovic like he's some kind of god, but that man is genius pure genius, and I will remember that night for a Long long time.
