NPR: Tiny Desk Concert

Can’t make it to any concerts this year?  Seriously?  Not one of these?  Aw man, sorry to hear that.

Well, you can still get your concert fix thanks to NPR’s Tiny Desk Concert series and even feel like you’re standing right next to him as he sings.  Here is Weird Al and the entire band playing “You Don’t Love Me Anymore,” “Good Old Days” and my favorite, an acoustic version of “CNR.”   Graciously, NPR also provides an audio version for download at the top of the page.
