I looked in the Archives on Weirdal.com, and it says Poodle Hat never went gold…..Odd…
April 7th, 2007 at 07:35 pm
Two things…
1. Does this mean Al gets another one of those gold records in the red case? I’ve seen those a lot, but never knew exactly what they were…
2. WHOO HOO!!!!! Congrats to AlCo!!!! (Whoa…ALCO. That sounds so cool. Do you guys think that can be, like, the official Yank Blog term for “Al & the band”?)

ANSWERS FOR ABN:
#1 Yes, as is usually the case for ALL music artists, Al and the Band will be getting one of those cool placs.
#2 If you mean ALCO as “Al & Company”, sounds fine to me.

Poodle hat got gold, in Austrailia

How many reocrds is gold in Austrailia compared to the USA?
Why doesn’t it say Austrailia’s Record sellings on Al’s site?….He tours there as well as Canada, and Canada is listed….
