Do you think Cuomo has ever killed anyone?
I kind of remember this and felt like he came off pretty well.

So I'd never really listened to Weezer before, heard a single here and there maybe, heard that Beverly Hills song, thought it was terrible and left it at that. Then I heard lots of people praising the Pinkerton album, so I thought I'd try it out. HOLY SHIT AMAZING. Love this album. Sounds nothing like the Weezer I expected. Really too bad that it seems everything else Weezer is of significantly lesser quality.

There aren't any bad songs on the Blue Album. It's perfect.

Rivers has turned into this weird social media monster the past few weeks. It reminds me of if Whitey McTeeth was behind the account of a very well known band's frontman.

No, Pinkerton was the last great album and Maladroit was the last good album. They peaked around there when they were constantly posting demos for Maladroit and then album 5. Al, that shit is really good. There probably isn't a good ten song collection off all the albums since.

Never seen Weezer live. That will change in 6 months.

Do they mix it up pretty well or will the set be latest-album-heavy?

(I realize they recently toured specifically playing Blue and/or Pinkerton songs so that would be out of the norm?)
