Notable quotes
“Those of you hoping for my artwork to once again grace the cabinets and translights of a new Stern game, it simply will not happen. If you're looking to see more of my work, I have two games coming out this year from fantastic pinball makers and a possible third.”
“The attention to details off the charts it's not going to make you walk to the bank to get your money to order you're going to be forced to run to the bank!”
“At the peak and the height of your hype, and when people are ready to spend money, your website is not accepting orders. So brilliant.”
“Don't announce a damn product if you don't want to take money for it.”
“Well, the theme is part of the game, isn't it? You're the worst guest ever.”
“This is as close to Harry Potter as we're going to get, right? Daniel Radcliffe is playing Weird Al in an upcoming film.”
“Weird Al transcends genres.”
“Last time Weird Al was here, he sold out the house in the exact same venue that Bob Dylan failed to sell out a few years earlier.”
