‘Weird Al’ Yankovic Umumkan Tur ‘Bigger & Weirder’ 2026 dengan 90 Tanggal! Gokil!

Gokil abis! "Weird Al" Yankovic nggak berhenti di tahun 2025 aja dengan Bigger & Weirder Tour-nya di Amerika Utara. Tahun depan, dia balik lagi buat 90 pertunjukan! Dimulai dari Miami tanggal 26 Mei dan selesai di Milwaukee tanggal 17 Oktober. Hampir semua wilayah di Amerika Serikat bakal kena sambang, dari Pikeville, Kentucky, sampe Peoria, Illinois, dan Saginaw, Michigan, dan masih banyak lagi!

"Kita udah manggung 75 kali tahun ini, dan fans masih belum bosen juga! Jadi, kita bakal terus tur sampe mereka beneran bosen!" kata Yankovic. Emang bener-bener nggak ada obat!

Bigger and Weirder Tour 2025 itu kayak balik lagi ke konser "Weird Al" yang tradisional, setelah beberapa tur yang fokus ke lagu-lagu favorit fans, lagu-lagu yang jarang dibawain, dan cover. Kali ini, dia bawa band yang lebih gede, delapan personel! Mereka ngebawain lagu-lagu hits kayak "Amish Paradise", "Fat", "Smells Like Nirvana", "Eat It", dan "White Nerdy" sambil ganti-ganti kostum yang ikonik.

Tur ini udah nyentuh lebih dari 500.000 fans dan beberapa tempat yang paling gede yang pernah dimainin Yankovic, termasuk Madison Square Garden! "Seringkali momen-momen penting dalam hidup dateng dan pergi begitu cepet sampe kita nggak bisa nikmatinnya," katanya malem itu. "Cuma 149 pertunjukan lagi, dan aku bakal seimbang sama Billy Joel."

Padahal, dia belum ngeluarin album baru sejak Mandatory Fun di tahun 2014, yang jadi album pertamanya yang nangkring di puncak Billboard 200. Dan meskipun dia ngeluarin medley polka baru di tahun 2024 yang nyampur lagu-lagu dari Taylor Swift, Olivia Rodrigo, Billie Eilish, Adele, Lil Nas X, dan banyak artis hits lainnya dengan gaya ngebut, dia belum ngeluarin lagu parodi standar selama lebih dari 11 tahun.

"Aku lagi di fase hidup di mana aku pengen nyobain hal-hal baru," katanya ke Rolling Stone di tahun 2024. "Maksudku, aku udah ngikutin formula yang sama selama empat dekade, dan aku pengen lebih terlibat di film layar lebar dan TV, dan aku suka ngisi suara. Aku masih pengen terus bikin musik, dan aku jelas masih suka tur. Tapi bikin parodi baru... Entahlah. Aku nggak menutup kemungkinan, tapi itu bukan fokusku lagi sekarang."
