Weird Al Yankovic

The Fleetwood Mac-inspired series 'Daisy Jones & the Six' also earned numerous nominations.

With the new year here, you are probably planning out what things you will be attending like concerts or comedy shows. Here are the concerts and appearances that are coming to West Michigan from now until May.

There will probably never be an "About Ham Time."

It is here, and it is weird.

'Weird: The Al Yankovic Story' will premiere on the Roku Channel in November.

The 133-date trek runs from April to October.

Nirvana, U2, the Kinks and Joan Jett are some of the many artists who've had their songs parodied.

We have Movies, Music, a Flea Market, a County Fair, Comedy, a Color Run, Baseball, Biking, Bowling, and...the World’s Largest Dog Wash!

Serious question: does any single entertainer have such complete dominion over their chosen field as Weird Al Yankovic wields over the song parody? Skeptics may scoff that musical spoofery is a stupid thing to become really, really, virtuosically good at, but the point stands that Yankovic has completely and totally mastered his preferred art form. So when the producers behind the upcoming film adaptation of the Captain Underpants chapter book series needed to find a talent for their theme music, of course their choice was obvious. In no insignificant way, Weird Al Yankovic was born to write a peppy pop tune about tightened-whiteys.

The parody artist said he tried many times to land a Prince song, but that he was never given the rights.

'Weird Al' Yankovic hilariously wrote and performed his own words to many lyric-less TV theme songs for a montage at the 2014 Emmy Awards.
