“Weird Al” Yonkovic just announced his 2015 Mandatory World Tour visiting over 100 cities!
From North America to Europe and Australia, Weird Al will be taking over the world during his world tour following his number one album “Mandatory Fun.” The Grammy-nominated “Mandatory Fun,” which was released in July of last year, shot to the top of Billboard’s top 200 Album Chart, marking the first time in 50 years that a comedy album has topped the charts and the first time a comedy album had ever debuted in the top position. Tickets will be up for pre-sale at weirdal.com starting January 27th at 10 am and then open to the public Friday January 30th at 10 am. Unarguably, the best-selling comedy recording artist ever, Weird Al has not only been producing hits for four decades, he’s also won three Grammys and premiered eight videos in eight days shaking up the internet. These videos included parodies of hits like “Happy,” “Blurred Lines” and “Fancy,” which garnered over 46 million views the first week. Weird Al has not only set the U.S. record for having the most tracks from one album on Spotify’s viral top 10 at one time, but is also one of the only three people in the world to have had Top 40 singles consecutively in the past 4 decades..
