Both are very subdued and restrained until you talk to them, and then there is this bubbling energy and creative passion that just comes out and suddenly they're gesticulating wildly with their whole body and going off about whatever topic you just brought up on a long and winding tangent.

Sometimes the songs are remembered more for Al's parodies than for the originals.

He came over and was standing about three feet from me. I don't know if he saw or made eye contact with me, but seconds later, a bunch of screaming girls take after him, and in seconds, he runs down to the base of the level, jumps over the metal railing, lands on his feet in the level below and runs to the stage, barely getting away from the girls, who, if had caught him would have probably torn him apart. Needless to say, I have been a fan of his ever since.
