You may remember that in 2018, "Weird Al" Yankovic went on the 'Ill Advised Vanity Tour' where he performed only his original songs, with (almost) none of his famous parodies or crazy costumes. He's doing it again in 2022, for a massive 133-date U.S. tour that will have him out from April through October. “I’ve loved doing every single incarnation of my live show, but honestly the Vanity tour is the most fun I’ve ever had on stage,” Yankovic said in a statement, “so I’ve been dying to get back out there and torture everybody with it once again!”
Dates include two Los Angeles shows on June 17 & 18 (venue TBA) and the tour ends in NYC at Carnegie Hall on October 29. If you live in the continental U.S., chances are he's playing near you -- all dates are listed below. Tickets for the whole tour go on sale December 10 at 10 AM local time.
