Weird Al Going To Bring The Big Show To Town

Guess Who The Opening Act Is Going To Be?
The tour will be supported by special guest Puddles Pity Party, the 7-foot sad clown whose golden voice is “comparable to any Grammy winner” and who has performed sold-out shows around the globe, including San Francisco’s Palace of Fine Arts, London’s Soho Theatre, and a residency at Caesar’s Palace in Las Vegas.

30 Years Ago Weird Al Made A Tour Stop At The Ritz
On August 13th,1994, Weird Al was on his Alapolooza tour, which included a whole show at the famous Ritz & Roseville.
The show was incredible and packed that night. It was interesting to see all the energy with Al and a full band who seemed to be having just as much fun as he was that night.
