Dream Time: Backstage with Wierd Al

I had a dream last night that I was writing a paper on Wierd Al Yankovic. In the dream I bought a book about him and went to one of his concerts. Someone saw me with the book and assumed I worked on the show and let me backstage where I met Wierd Al and his crew. It was quickly clear that I did not belong there.
Someone came backstage and asked Wierd Al if he wanted to do a meet and greet with his fans. Wierd Al did not want to because they were all crazy. I suggested that I go onstage with Wierd Al and bring a sword. This way from now on Wierd Al's fans would know he keeps a guy with a sword around so in the future his fans will not try anything crazy. Wierd Al thought it was a great idea.
It was around then that I woke up.

This was a dream. None of it really happened. I have never met Wierd Al of been to one of his shows. I don't even own any of his music.
This dream was fresh in my mind so I decided to write it down here.
