When I lived in NYC I walked by this accordion shop in midtown. I always said to myself, "One day you'll see Weird Al in there." After a couple of years I saw him playing accordion with a street band about a block away the night after he played som theater in New Rochelle.

The owner of the office I work for went to Cal Poly at the same time as Weird Al. He said WA used to practice the accordian in the restrooms.

Bad Hair Day was a big deal when I was in 7th grade. I love how he keeps popping up every like six or seven years to become relevant for a little.
