al's band
Al's band actually is Al Yankovic's band.
They recorded a single entitled 'Al's Band' on which they explain what it's like to be Al's band. They also refer to 'Genius In France' and mention the bands' appearance in The Simpsons.

Al's
Band actually is Al Yankovic's band.
They recorded a single entitled 'Al's Band' on which they explain what it's like
to be Al's band. The song is quite funny and the music sounds great. The music
immediately reminded me of Raymond Scott, Spike Jones, and Frank Zappa. Not that
it's complex, it's just plain funny.
The
lyrics also refer to 'Genius In France' (Al's song that uses FZ themes and that
includes Dweezil Zappa on guitar) and to the bands' appearance in The Simpsons.
Excellent!!

This is very cool, thanks for the heads up. I bought my kids Al's DVD collection and until then did not realize he's had a real band for years and years, and that they are superb. I'm hoping for a tour next year.
