"Weird Al" says of this tour in a release, "I've decided to do the Mandatory World tour for one more year, after learning that some people didn't make it out to the show this last time around. Apparently, they don't know the meaning of the word 'mandatory'!!"

In Texas, "Weird Al" will also visit Corpus Christi's Selena Auditorium at American Bank Center, Dallas' Winspear Opera House, and El Paso's Plaza Theatre of Performing Arts.
