You mean he started in the late 70s. Yankovic's debut single, "My Bologna", was in 1979 ..... It was of course a parody of "My Sharona" by The Knack. Al's single was released on Capitol Records, which coincidentally or not, was the label The Knack was on. It was Al's only release on Capitol.

He has the talent to both play and do music and concert production in the styles of every artist he's done a parody of. So he's definitely got that going for him. Weezer does their thing, but perhaps not to the level that somebody usually considered a novelty act does.

I've been a huge Weezer fan my entire life But your post is 100% BS. You lied and made that up. They didn't change things up "Just" to have Weird Al play with them. Not only has Weezer ALWAYS played covers to some capacity, they recorded a whole EP of covers, one of which is AFRICA I LOVE Weezer. But they decided to -honestly awkwardly- pull "Africa" into their REGULAR setlist. And play it at encore as if it's THEIR hit song and not....you know a cover of an incredibly beloved and constantly played song. To say they "Changed things up" is a lie. They regularly do this. To say they did it just to "Bring Weird Al on to jam" is an even BIGGER lie. So yeah. You're a liar.

Holy $#¡+… This vid made my eyes tear up: Big fan of Weird Al, and Weezer was the first “big” band I ever saw in concert, when I was a teenager back in the 90s. My best buddy brought me to see them in Central Park; At a fleeting silent moment between songs I jumped up as high as I could above the crowd and shouted “Garage!” The lead singer looked to his band mates and said “OK,” with a shrug. Then they played “Garage.” I am a disabled veteran now and it can be really difficult to make it to concerts… But this vid makes me want to try my best to make it to their show next time they’re in Boston. 🌞🙏🏼✌🏼❤️💯
