A few days ago, new threads on the General Discussion forum started showing up about what Blizzard has chosen as the artist for BlizzCon’s closing ceremony. Most of the responses have been negative, “he was funny when I was a teenager” to “is Blizzard trying to ruin themselves”.
To ones who don’t know who he is, Weird Al has grown in popularity due to doing parodies of popular songs, such as ‘Just Eat It’; being a parody of Micheal Jackson’s ‘Just Beat It’ (and ‘Fat’ being a parody of the same artist’s ‘Bad’) just to name a few.
Interesting choice, Blizzard. Though I would had gone with something like Imagine Dragons, but.. just my personal opinion. I still like Weird Al, but I like that other band more (not because it has the word “dragon” in it, but because their music is pretty good).
I hope he does a WoW Parody (though I don’t know what of that he could use). And it will be cool to see him in real life, singing.
Definitely worth buying a ticket and have some mandatory fun.
