'Weird Al' Yankovic to bring comedy rock show to Waite Park
"Weird Al" Yankovic, the world's best-selling comedy recording artist, will bring his comedy rock show to Minnesota this year.
The just-announced BIGGER & WEIRDER 2025 tour includes a Thursday, Sept. 11 stop at The Ledge Amphitheater in Waite Park.
"After two world tours in smaller venues with scaled-down, intimate shows featuring his original songs, Weird Al now returns to the big stage for the first time in six years, playing his iconic hits as well as some fan favorites, which have never been performed live," the tour announcement shares.
The multimedia production will include a giant video wall, multiple costume changes and an eight-piece ensemble featuring Weird Al's original band, according to the announcement.
A pop culture icon, Weird Al has won five Grammy awards and joins Madonna and Michael Jackson as one of three artists to ever chart in the Top 40 of the Billboard Hot 100 in four consecutive decades.
The 65-year-old performer is known for his parodies of hit songs from artists such as Taylor Swift, Usher, Nirvana, Eminem, Queen, Lady Gaga, and more.
