You tell 'em, troystiffler! I could care less what he says about annoying fans. As long as Weezer keeps making music I enjoy listening to, then I will buy the albums. But I still think his comments were taken way too seriously...

I have no problems with Weezer post-Pinkerton, and I have no problems with Radiohead post-Ok Computer (well....post-live album I do...but I won't get into it). Quit whining if you don't like it - just move on.

Weezer pisses me off because every time I see a glimmer of hope (instrumental death and destruction and burnt jamb, or a few of the b-sides such as I Do and Always) its buried between 30 minutes of filler that they call an album, hidden under ridiculous lyrics, or lost other than mp3 demos.
I know the original intent of my last post is lost. Oh well.

How come the new Matt Sharp album coming out isn't from the Rentals? If you look at the returning members from The Rentals from album one to two, you will see that it is only Matt Sharp. Is it something with Maverick? I haven't heard anything. Where are your sources?
I personally just think that after Mykle and Carly (sorry for bad spellings) died that maybe Rivers just doesn't care anymore.

Mykel and Carli were the presidents of the Weezer fan club. They are two sisters and were with Weezer from the days before the days of playing at birthday parties and such. They loved Weezer no matter what would happen to them but then they died in a car accident on July 9th 1997, 5 years exactly from Weezer's first show they showed up for. Rivers even made a song about them called "Mykel and Carli" and it was a b-side for "Undone" in which Mykel did background vocals for the second verse. They were the original fans.

don' t take 'em seriously, just read who he thanks in the maladroit insert and look at the very end of the first page...
...who the hell really cares what they think anyway?
just listen to the damn music if you like it and if you don't, do whatever it is you do...
