I'm very sorry to say that the AOL "First View" Premiere of the "White & Nerdy" video has been cancelled.

Apparently, the video has already leaked online, and AOL doesn't feel comfortable doing a "World Premiere" promotion for a video that a number of people have seen already. (I can understand songs leaking, but a video? How'd THAT happen?)

Anyway, it's really a bummer... it would have been great promotion for the album... but hey, life goes on.

So...

I'll be uploading the video to this page shortly. Tell your friends!

AOL simply needs to go out of business... people finally figured out they are only a gateway to the internet, not the actual internet that they severly overcharge access to. Who need them?

THANK GOD!!!  AOL scares the bejeebus out of me, it's so I  can't even go see a Warner Bros. movie any more because I believe there's mind control stuff going on... for some reason, I trust MySpace, though...

The website singingfool.com has had it online since the 13th. You can watch it here. I think it probably wasn't a leak, but rather a misunderstanding/miscommunication/release mistake. Otherwise, go ahead and have your people sue 'em.

Thanks for showing me this site.  I  really enjoyed watching the video, wherever it came from.  I will be getting the CD when I see it.  I'm really nerdy, I tend to by it from hucksters at my local Science Fiction conventions.

Yep... That's how I  saw it, and then it was taken from there and put on YouTube and Google Vid. YouTube had it taken down, but Google didn't when I checked a couple days ago.

Wow.  I'm sorry to hear that.  Living in the internet age makes keeping secrets and having premieres tougher.  At least you do the best you can.  People like me will still buy your albums and support the good work you do.

Don't they know? That with you it's always like the first time!

Really, I think it's sad they would not do the premiere.

Maybe the million fans you have here on myspace can spread the word.

This is unfortunate, that somebody ruined the premier for the rest of us. The CD will still most likely be a dual disk. However that is probably the most likely reason the video got out early in the first place.=( I have had friends that have worked in music stores, and sometimes stores will get there shipments of CDs weeks in advance. Unfortunately it is not hard for some one working in the store to snag an advanced copy of a CD, and since Als videos were on the DVD side of the CD. They would be easy to get a hold of as well. The only way that I could see videos not getting out before there suppose to is to either not have them on the disk =( Or release the video before the CDs go in to mass production.

Al, that is such a shame! Your fans are starving for more Al and AOL is denying us our daily dose of Al! AOL is lame anyways, but that just makes them appear even lamer in my opinion.  Hopefully someone bigger and better will pick up your stuff, because we can't wait to see it!!!!

What number? 20? Obviously nobody that has responded so far has seen it. That's BS! Further proof that AOL always has and always will SUCK! They can kiss my lilly white a$$!

Don't worry Al, we'll do all we can to make sure people know about your new album. I've already plugged it on my blog and will continue harrassing my friends until they buy it :D

You fail to realize that 50,000 people, really arent that many...theres what, 10 billion people on earth? 50,000 isnt even more than .1% of the earths population.....

Yea, the video was great! Saw it about....5 minutes ago, on Break.com. Its a nice video, as is the song. (my myspace song) It kinda sounds like me about 2 years ago ^.^ Great song, and video...cant wait to get the CD ^.^

Dont forget the old joke about what AOL stands for...Assholes On-Line.  Very apt.

 

I would have loved to have seen an official on-line release, rather than chase up a leaked copy. :(

yo man ive been a fan for years...literally since "like a surgeon" and "eat it" and "uhf".

heard u do that "white and nerdy" and im from texas and loved it!

got online earlier and was reading about willie nelson getting busted again and i scroll down to a pic of u dressed like chamillionaire saying watch the video which took me to youtube.

watched it and cracked up! it was brilliant! and then when i went to copy the code to put it on my myspace page it said somthing about being removed cause the RIAA.

so needless to say i found it at another site and i will be making a bulley out of it shortly..sorry bout the premiere..but hey LETS MAKE UP FOR IT BY SPREADING IT LIKE A WILDFIRE SO THEY CAN NEVER GET RID OF IT!!!!!

yaknowwhatimsayin?

p.s. heres the link that i saw earlier...
