“Weird Al” Yankovic welcomed Presidents Of The United States Of America frontman Chris Ballew last night (June 28) at Seattle’s Moore Theatre for a surprise rendition of that group’s beloved ’90s hit “Peaches.” Yankovic previously transformed POTUSOA’s other big grunge-era hit, “Lump,” into the song “Gump” from his 1996 Bad Hair Day.
Yankovic is in the midst of his Unfortunate Return of the Ridiculously Self-Indulgent Ill-Advised Vanity Tour, which wraps with a sold-out Oct. 29 show at New York’s Carnegie Hall. The comedy/music veteran will also be the subject of a tongue-in-cheek biopic, Weird: The Al Yankovic Story, later this year. Harry Potter star Daniel Radcliffe will portray Yankovic in the film, which will be released on the Roku Channel.
