Video Archive: Walter & Sheila’s Cheese Hole

To mark the 40th anniversary of the “Weird Al” Yankovic album Dare to Be Stupid, Nick Prueher posted a Facebook Reel with a clip from a July 7, 1985 AL-TV segment on MTV in which Yankovic runs down a list of fake tour stops, including Walter & Sheila’s Cheese Hole in Superior.

Yankovic actually did play a gig in Superior that year; he was a featured act at the Head of the Lakes Fair on Aug. 9, 1985.

    That Weird Al show at the Head of The Lakes Fair was the first concert I ever went to. He actually did two shows that day — one in the early afternoon and then an evening show.

    Technically, it was two evening shows — 7 and 9 p.m.

    Thanks for that. I had remembered one of the shows was in daylight and the other was darker so I guessed about when they were.
