--FROM THE MAINTAINER-------------------------------------------------
Welcome to the "Weird Al" Yankovic article bibliography. This is a
continuously expanding bibliography of articles about Al and/or any of
his band members. It is in it's VERY early stages, so please refer to
the Needed Info section for more information on how YOU can help make
this a valuable Al resource.
NOTE: All articles mention Al and/or any of his band members, feature
a cameo of Al and/or any of his band members, or are about Al
and/or any of his band members. There are no articles included
which JUST feature Al related topics, such as Spam or The
Biggest Ball of Twine in Minnesota and not Al and/or any of his
band members. When an entry says Cover, it does not
necessarily mean there is a picture of Al on the cover, but
more likely just his name mentioned concerning an article
featured inside. Also, whenever possible only the page numbers
concerning Al and/or any of his band members are included,
which may or may not be the beginning page of the actual
article, and I have tried to use the words Index and Contents
as little as possible, but rather the actual page numbers of
the Index and Contents.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
--NEEDED INFO---------------------------------------------------------
At it's current statis, this bibliography is far from accurate as to
how many articles about Al and/or any of his band members there are.
If you can supply any of the following information it will be
extremely helpful in keeping this bibliography accurate and expanding:
Any articles not included in this bibliography. If known, please
include the date of publication, page number, and article title or
brief summary.
Any ?'s you can help fill in.
Any information to help make the Miscellaneous Al section shorter.
Any magazine, newspaper or newspaper suppliment addresses.
Any questions, comments, or suggestions.

rswoverlan@elsinor.cerf.fred.org
or snail mail it to:

Murrieta, California 92562
Thanks in advance, and with the help of all you Al-aholics out there,
I'm sure this bibliography will grow at a geometric rate.
