Concert Reviews

Yes, folks, not only can Al sing and act and direct, but he does concerts too! Where does he find the time??! Al's concerts are a multimedia extravaganza with lots of live energetic songs, the world's greatest band, funny video clips, costume changes, unreleased songs not found on any album, and millions upon millions of wild and crazy Al fans and people out to have fun just like you!

And I'm proud to say that I'm a concert junkie, traveling all over to see shows. Below is a list of Al concerts that I've been to and others that I plan to be at. Click on Review to see my concert review and lots of concert, and aftershow pictures.

A word of advice, if Al comes around your neighborhood, go! You'll never be the same! And if Al doesn't tour anywhere nearby, move. Check out Bermuda's Live Shows archives for past tour dates and keep your eye on The Official "Weird Al" Yankovic Website for future concert dates.

A red dot on the map indicates that I have seen at least one concert in that city (excludes 3 Canadian cities).

Special Events

You don't even have to go to a concert or hide in the bushes outside his house with a pair of binoculars to see Al in person. He occasionally shows up at public functions like awards shows, autograph sessions, conventions, and even the supermarket. Here's some more Al related events where I've rubbed shoulders with Al and Al fans.
