PUSA + Weird Al = 'MIXED UP S.O.B.'
The Parody
Weird Al will direct the video for The Presidents of the United States of America's single, "Mixed Up S.O.B.," from their forthcoming record, "These Are the Good Times, People," which hits stores on March 11. No word on whether Al will star in the video as PUSA frontman Chris Ballew, the way he did for his "Gump," video.
2008 is certainly looking to be big year for PUSA. In addition to the new record and Weird Al fondling, they launch a word tour in Portland on March 14, the day after their SXSW showcase in Austin, TX. The tour hits The Paramount on March 15. $20 tix are still available via Ticketmaster. Maybe it's just that I haven't bought a ticket through Ticketmaster in a looooong time, but I'm blown away by the $9.o5 convenience charge for the tix, and a $3 "building facility charge." I know this is a tired arguement, but damn. $32.05 for a $20 ticket?

I didn\'t know Al was so athletic/flexible. I pulled a groin muscle just watching.

Not that it matters, but Al was apparently recording at a recording studio in Ballard (Victory, if I heard right) just last week, according to this guy who asked ran into my work and asked if we sold Weird Al posters so he could get one signed. We didn\'t.

I think it\'s great for PUSA to team up with Al. It\'s also doubly great that their tour (and paramount show) is with Pleaseeasaur. Who is possibly even weirder than Weird Al. The Seattle show will be unbelievably fun!
