"Weird Al used music videos brilliantly. His parodies of both Michael Jackson and Madonna were even more memorable than the original videos themselves." |

Make the Rock Hall Weird Update Blog
First, since we're now knee-deep in the month of May, we want to offer our monthly reminder to everyone out there to send your greeting cards to the Rock Hall Foundation urging them to induct Al.
Greeting cards can be sent to:
Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Foundation
Attn: Joel Peresman
1290 Avenue of the Americas
New York, NY 10104

Meanwhile, Greg is still hard at work on the campaign's documentary video, and we have now set up a new wishlist page detailing some of the things we still need (or would like to have, anyway) from volunteers.
Finally, the big news is that Make the Rock Hall "Weird" will have an official presence at the upcoming Al Fest fan convention this August in Costa Mesa, California! Greg will be on hand filming interviews for the documentary, and we may have another trick or two up our sleeve.
NOTE: This will be the absolute final place interviews will be conducted for the documentary. If you have been wanting to appear on camera to make your plea to the Rock Hall, this will be your last chance!
More info on the convention, including a place to purchase tickets, can be found at the Al Fest official web site: www.alfest2009.com
Until then, send in your greeting card!
