Trio Of 3 all excellent condition. I saw INXS in Santa Barbara, they were fabulous. I saw weird Al in San Luis Obispo, Cal poly his alma mater in the 90s, I had no idea I would be moving there later. My daughter is friends with his guitarist Jim Kemo West. But when we went there they were way too loud and I had forgotten the ear plugs. She met him when she was invited to go to the Grammys. You can’t go to the Grammys unless you are invited. She saw Madonna and sat next to his guitarist. She was a masseuse at a fancy spa and one of her clients gave her the ticket. Unisex.

Great happenings for your daughter. NPR’s FRESH AIR has a terrific recent interview with AL.

@thepoptart Hi I just got your note. Thank you for telling me I will let her know. I heard there was a movie about him that just came out. Have you seen it? Thanks again, Trina

Weird Al is one of the most beloved parody musicians of all time. With so many music biopics arriving in recent years, it was only fitting that Weird Al got his own -- and starring Daniel Radcliffe no less. Our review of Weird: The Al Yankovic Story calls it a hilarious parody of the music biopic genre. I haven’t seen it yet.

@thepoptart I told my daughter did you tell Jim West? that your mom used to play slide guitar. That's when I had a beautiful Martin guitar worth four grand that was taken and sold on e b without my permission. But that's how I got the Bonnie Raitt shirt listed for sale nowbecause of the story I included on that listing when she invited me backstage
