As before, rather than focusing on the hits from his career, the show will feature Al's non-parody material the somewhat more obscure pastiches and original songs that have largely escaped the pop culture radar but are adored by his long-time fans.

Why see Weird Al Yankovic?
the unfortunate return of the ridiculously self- indulgent ill-advised vanity tour
The undisputed king of the comedy song goes low key once more as he serves up another outing of 2018's The Ridiculously Self-Indulgent, Ill-Advised Vanity Tour. Hitting an eye-watering 133 venues across the country, the show drops the props and theatrics to offer another side of Yankovich and his band outside of the parody song genre. Whilst there may be a few fan-favorite comedy tunes, Al and Co are more focused on playing some of their original material, deep album cuts, and the like. So if you're looking for belly laughs and 'Amish Paradise', it's probably best to wait until the next tour.
As a leader of pop-culture parody, Weird Al has sold more comedy recordings than any other artist in history. In a career spanning nearly three decades, he has amassed 30 Gold and Platinum albums, 7 Gold and Platinum-certified home videos, and 3 Grammy Awards.

Weird Al at the Wilbur
This was an excellent show. Weird Al, his band, his awesome songs, minus all the usual costumes and props and video screens and dancers. I went to one of those previous shows with costumes etc., and awesome as it was, it sometimes felt like Weird Al was acting out a caricature of himself. Not so this show: he was sitting on the stool, singing like crazy. My only (minor) complaint is about the balance: the drums and, to a lessor extent, the bass were enough too loud to make it a bit hard to hear all the lyrics clearly. ... Read more

Still a bangin' show!
Weird Al busted it out again, another amazing show. His energy was top notch, full costume
changes all throughout, and a special lounge version of some very classic Al fav's. Did not
disappoint, except that it was only 2 hours long instead of like... 4 or 5 hours long! Always a
great time at the Mandatory Fun tour. ... Read more
