“Weird Al” Yankovic announced Monday his “Bigger & Weirder 2025 Tour” will kick off in June and continue through September 2025.

The tour is Yankovic’s first in six years and will include Yankovic playing hits as well as some fan favorites that have never been performed live. The “Bigger & Weirder 2025 Tour” will also feature an eight-piece ensemble featuring Al’s original band.

“This is kind of a ‘best of both worlds’ tour,” Yankovic said. “We’ll be doing all the big crowd-pleasing parodies as well as some deep cuts for the hardcore fans – but with twice as many players on stage, everything is going to sound twice as good!”

Yankovic’s tour includes a stop at Red Rocks Ampitheatre in Denver on Tuesday, June 24. – 9News

Sebastian Maniscalco has celebrated heights only a few comedians ever achieve. With a string of record-breaking, sold-out arena shows including the United Center in his hometown of Chicago, Boston’s TD Garden, The Forum in LA and New York’s Madison Square Garden; a Netflix original special called “Stay Hungry;” and a starring role alongside Robert DeNiro, Al Pacino, and Joe Pesci in Martin Scorsese’s Oscar-nominated The Irishman, it’s no surprise that both Pollstar and Billboard have honored the standup with their top touring awards.

The last few years of success follow a number of blockbuster years for the comedian, author and actor that have included releasing a best-selling memoir, Stay Hungry; and landing a role in Green Book, which won Best Picture at the Academy Awards.

Justin Timberlake is one of the most recognizable pop stars of his generation, jumping from platform to platform on his way to establishing himself as something bigger than a star: he is a self-sustained empire.

Its hit singles “Cry Me a River” and “Rock Your Body” established him as a force outside the group and he consolidated that success in 2006 with FutureSex/LoveSounds, the album that generated his biggest hit to date, “SexyBack.” After reaching this peak, he decided to pursue other ventures, choosing to concentrate on acting and entrepreneurship.

After juggling numerous ventures outside the music industry, Timberlake returned to the top of the charts with help from Timbaland, releasing 2013’s two-part 20/20 Experience and 2018’s Man of the Woods. He also scored an enduring crossover hit with “Can’t Stop the Feeling!” off the soundtrack to the Trolls movie in which he also starred. – AllMusic.com

Men at Work were one of the more surprising success stories of the new wave era, rocketing out of Australia in 1982 to become the most successful artist of the year. With its Police-styled rhythms, catchy guitar hooks, wailing saxophones, and off-kilter sense of humor, the band’s debut album, Business as Usual, became an international blockbuster, breaking the American record for the most weeks a debut spent at the top of the charts. Their funny, irreverent videos became MTV favorites, helping send “Who Can It Be Now?” and “Down Under” to number one. Men at Work’s momentum sustained them through their second album, 1983’s Cargo, before the bottom fell out of the band’s popularity. After releasing Two Hearts in 1985, Men at Work broke up, becoming one of the better-remembered phenomena of new wave.

Colin Hay (lead vocals, guitar), a native of Scotland who moved to Australia at the age of 14, formed Men at Work as an acoustic duo with Ron Strykert (guitar, vocals) in Melbourne in 1978. Within a few months, the duo had expanded to a full group with the addition of John Rees (bass), Greg Ham (saxophone, flute, keyboards), and Jerry Speiser (drums). Over the next two years, the band became regulars at the Cricketer’s Arms Hotel bar and on Australia’s pub circuit, eventually becoming the highest-paid unsigned band in the country. By 1981, they had landed a contract with Australian Columbia, which released “Who Can It Be Now?” by the end of the year. The single became a huge hit, as did their debut album, Business as Usual, upon its spring 1982 release. Featuring contributions by Hay, Strykert, and Ham, Business as Usual spent ten weeks at the top of the Australian charts, beating a record held by Split Enz’s True Colours. The album was released in America in the summer, and within a few weeks “Who Can It Be Now?” began its climb to the top of the U.S. charts. In November, Business as Usual hit the top of the charts, where it would stay for 15 weeks. “Down Under” became the group’s second American number one early in 1983, and it became the band’s first British hit single; the song reached number one in both countries simultaneously. In February, the band was named the Best New Artist of 1982 at the Grammys. – AllMusic

Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark are one of the earliest, most commercially successful, and enduring synth pop groups. Inspired most by the advancements of Kraftwerk and striving at one point “to be ABBA and Stockhausen,” they’ve continually drawn from early electronic music as they’ve alternately disregarded, mutated, or embraced the conventions of the three-minute pop song.

Outside their native England, OMD are known primarily for “Maid of Orleans” and the Pretty in Pink soundtrack smash “If You Leave,” yet they scored 18 additional charting U.K. singles in the ’80s alone.

These hits supported inventive albums such as Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark (1980), Architecture & Morality (1981), and commercial suicide-turned-cult classic Dazzle Ships (1983). After roughly a decade of silence, OMD returned in the mid-2000s to add to their legacy as much as tend to it. Their lengthy second life has been highlighted by a sixth U.K. Top Ten album, The Punishment of Luxury (2017), the 40th anniversary box set Souvenir (2019), and the politically inspired Bauhaus Staircase (2023).
