Kurt Cobain called him "America's modern pop-rock genius"; along with
Michael Jackson and Madonna (and later U2 and Kenny G), he is one of
only five artists to have had a Top 40 hit in every decade from the
1980s to the 2010s. He is, of course, "Weird Al" Yankovic: accordionist,
polka influencer, and parodist extraordinaire. This orgy comprises a
five-hour close reading of the legacy of one of our country's most seminal
artists, from his earlier pop-culture pastiches ("Like A Surgeon,"
"Yoda") to later, more nuanced work (the delicately existential "Skipper
Dan"; the world's greatest remix of "Feel It Still"). We'll also
discuss Yankovic's public persona, cult movie, failed TV show, and
success in adopting new media like MTV and YouTube.
