If you can get a station called Star 98.7, tune in. Weird Al is hosting a “Totally '80s Friday Night”. That is all.

Uh…Forget I said anything. My apologies to the three people who looked at this already, and to others who will read it after I post.
I was **sure** I heard him say, “ **I’m hosting** the Friday Night '80’s party”. But I waited through the whole set, and a female DJ came on and referred again to the night’s theme, without mentioning anything about hosts.
I understand there are a fair number of Weird Al fans on the board, so I think I’ll stay indoors for a while, to avoid getting stoned as a false prophet.

Dammit! I may have been the only person who did this, but I **did** go turn Star on as soon as I read your thread, and was noticing the curious lack of Al.
I’m not a fan. I’m just inviting him to my wedding. 🙂
