Weird Al Yankovic part en tournée mondiale et sera au Bluesfest d’Ottawa

Weird Al Yankovic part en tournée mondiale et sera au Bluesfest d’Ottawa.

Le sympathique et très drôle Weird Al Yankovic prendra la route dès le mois de mai pour une grande tournée mondiale qui fera un arrêt pas très loin de chez nous!

Le Bluesfest d’Ottawa accueillera le chanteur le 19 juillet prochain, soirée de clôture du festival. Aucune date pour le moment pour la province de Québec, mais avec l’annonce des dates de sa tournée, on remarque un beau trou entre le 26 juillet et le 4 août. Tiens, tiens, ces dates coïncident étrangement avec le festival Osheaga qui se tiendra du 31 juillet au 2 août, cette année.

Selon un message publié par Weird Al sur sa page Facebook, d’autres dates sont à venir puisque des ententes ne sont pas encore totalement conclues. Ça sent VRAIMENT Osheaga!

On imagine que l’on aura droit à ses plus grands succès et aux chansons de son dernier album, Mandatory Fun sorti l’été dernier.
