Who’s Your Grammy?
Check it! Al just posted some cool news over at his MySpace page:
The nominations for the 49th annual Grammy Awards were announced today, and I’m very happy to say that I made the cut! “Straight Outta Lynwood” was nominated for 2 awards: Best Comedy Album (the other nominees are George Carlin, Lewis Black, Bill Engvall and Ron White) and Best Surround Sound Album. The winners will be announced at the awards show on February 11. Unfortunately, this is one time when you guys won’t be able to help me out (unless you happen to be a voting member of the Academy!)… but if you could just - you know - put out some positive energy into the universe, that would be great. Anyway, yay! I’m very pleased.
YAY! More potential Grammy awards to keep his others company. The blog post also mentions that he’s working on the next Al-TV, a special iTunes offer, and his upcoming Grand Marshalling duties. Congrats Al from all of us here at the Yank! Blog and your millions if not billions of friends, fans, servants, and octopods everywhere.

The deluxe version of “straight outta lynwood” is available on iTunes now, it has the videos from the CD, I don’t really care because I already ripped everything off of my DVD for my iPod, but just thought you guys might like to know. Am I the only one that has an artist alert for weird al on iTunes? Don’t tell me you guys are using the zune marketplace or whatever…
