Weird Al Yankovic

NYC's Slipper Room hosted an evening of striptease to Weird Al classics like ”Smells Like Nirvana,” ”Amish Paradise,” and more.

'Weird: The Al Yankovic Story' is available to stream now, and you can hear the full soundtrack, as well.

Sunday at NYCC included panels on the Weird Al biopic and The Muppets Mayhem, plus lots more excellent cosplay.

At nearly three minutes long, the first full trailer from the upcoming Weird Al Yankovic biopic gives us a good look at Daniel Radcliffe in his bushy haired, mustached glory as Al, along with a glimpse of Evan Rachel Wood as Madonna.

The book features over 300 photographs taken over the last 45 years by Weird Al drummer Jon “Bermuda“ Schwartz, including behind-the-scenes shots from Al's many iconic videos, to studio sessions, stage photographs, and more.

”Weird Al” Yankovic is in the midst of his ”Ill Advised Vanity Tour,” and for the Seattle stop he included a rendition of Presidents of the United States of America’s inescapable mid-’90s hit.

”I am absolutely thrilled that Daniel Radcliffe will be portraying me in the film,” Weird Al says. ”I have no doubt whatsoever that this is the role future generations will remember him for.”

Like he did in 2018, Weird Al will hit the road to perform his original, non-parody songs with no crazy costumes. ‘The Vanity tour is the most fun I’ve ever had on stage,” Al says, “so I’ve been dying to get back out there and torture everybody with it once again!”

Barnes & Barnes, the cult duo who created Dr Demento classic “Fish Heads,“ get just a little serious on their new album ‘Pancake Dream‘ that's out this week...

‘A Sight for Sore Eyes, Vol. 1‘ is a fully authorized visual history with rare and unseen photos, artwork, and contributions from Les Claypool, Paul Reubens, Danny Elfman, Andy Partridge, and more.
