The king of novelty music, Weird Al Yankovic has had a fruitful and lucrative career, yet very few will claim him as their favorite artist. His parody work is amazingly perfect. In many cases, it's his spoof of the original that launches the song he's ripping on to classic status.
"Like a Surgeon," "Girls Just Wanna Have Lunch," "Phony Calls," and all his Jacko-based jams -- anytime Weird Al makes his version of a song, that's when you truly know: That song is an international superhit.
We'll get to see Al perform all his hits and nonhits on October 1, when Comedy Central premieres
"Weird Al" Yankovic Live! -- The Alpocalypse Tour. Like his role
UHF, our favorite zany underdog will rule the air. Thank you for wising up, Comedy Central -- we're getting tired of groaning at Jeff Dunham and his dorky puppets. We can pretty much guarantee that
Alpocalypse will be devoid of redneck jokes or Carlos Mencia-style stolen jokes. What we will get is tons of hilarious music, wholesome ridiculous wackiness and -- in typical Al fashion -- an accordion medley of today's biggest hits.
