People, I been driving for days, on a cross counrty trek. Just found the internet after a long search! Some things to know:

...taste the weezer rainbow - blue + green + red = just $19.99 on itunes, available Now!

...Rivers has been in the studio last week and continuing into this week, working on getting previously unreleased material chosen and ready for the world for the upcoming releases of "Pinkerton: The Deluxe Edition", and "Odds And Ends", a collection of perfectly good Weezer recordings that somehow never made it out before. Both of these releases are currently expected fairly early in the new year. This current studio work is the 'review, compare and tweak where needed' phase. Next comes mixing (where needs be) and sequencing, mastering, then finishing the artwork up. Both of these releases are going to be super cool!

...the whole of the Weezer Twitterview is collected on askweezer.com, so you dont have to fish back thru the old Weez Twitter posts to find everything. Thanks for participating!

...MTV visited Sidney the Raditude cover star and got a great, er, "interview" with him. That dog has got some energy! Check it out here.

...Video interview with Rivers on YoungHollywood.com.

...On newsstands: Billboard mag with Rivers and Jermaine Dupri cover story.

...Weezer's recent (10/23) performance on Jimmy Kimmel will air on November 23rd.

...Sidney the Raditude Cover star pooch hasn't let fame go to his furry head. Today's pic shows him lounging with the cd that bears his photo, which was taken by his owner Jason Neely, originally for a National Geographic contest which he won.

Here's some thoughts on Sidney from Jason:

"Exuberant, thoughtful, manic, playful, and very, very quirky—all words that describe my dog, Sidney’s personality. One word encompasses all of them—not a word that I had heard before mid-August — that word is Raditude.

When I called my friend Jim to tell him that Weezer wanted to use the picture that I took of Sidney leaping through my living room for the cover of their newest album, he asked what the name of the album would be. I told him “Raditude.” There was a moment of silence on the line. Then laughter. He said he couldn’t think of a better word to describe Sidney.

From the time Sidney’s picture was published in the August 2009 issue of National Geographic, I’ve been getting emails from people sharing pictures of their dogs that look like Sidney. I’ve also had countless people ask what kind of dog Sidney is. Sidney is a rescue dog. Other than knowing that his mother was a Lab mix, we don’t have any clue what breeds are in him. His mother was pregnant and due to be put down. A couple of girls in Gainesville, FL took her home and raised the pups until they were old enough to be adopted. That's when we brought the crazy dog into our lives.

I think that the appeal of the photo I took of Sidney is two-fold. First, it captures his essential Raditudeness. The focused intensity of his leap freezes that moment of a transcendental high that everyone experiences in life—always in all too fleeting moments. The second part of the picture’s appeal is that Sidney could be any dog. He’s not a pure breed. He’s not a show dog. There are a lot of dogs that look like him, and because of that we can all relate to him. But, like many of us, Sidney is one unique guy. And he loves to show it." -Jason

Note that Mtv news will be running a piece on Sidney soon - you'll be able to see him in action!

...Buyers of the iTunes Pass version of Raditude: You may have noticed by now that for some reason iTunes Pass does not allow for a digital booklet. So we have provided one for you, in PDF format, on this page.

...Re-live the recent Dave Letterman Weezer appearances - full episodes online with performances here.

...Here's a review of Raditude from the perspective of the longtime Weezer fan. Justin Hoenke was into Weezer when many of you might not have even heard of them, so he has been through a lot of changes as weezer has thrown out its curve balls. He's got faith in weez as well as a critical eye, and his p.o.v. is interesting.

This evening as the first of 3 SoCal area instore singing sessions with Weezer, as we welcome their 7th album "Raditude" into the world. Today's signing was at the Hot Topic store in the Hollywood and Highland Mall, next door to the Kodak Theater and the Knitting Factory. There was a huge turn out, but Hot Topic was careful to set limits so that everyone in line could say hi to the band and get their item signed in the time alotted. Prior to the signing, the guys did an interview with a video crew from HotTopic.com, in which the new album was discussed as well as some rather goofy stuff.

Basically everything went really well, and a lot of people walked away with everything from copies of Raditude, to guitars, to old ticket stubs, to bizarre demonic wall plaques, to strange pictures, to t-shirts, to broken ukeleles, to intact ukeleles, and everything in beween signed by the band. If you can make it into the signings in Irvine tomorrow or Chino on Saturday, dont miss out! Here's the details:

People check it out - Babelgum has created this online video editor mashup machine, built with video clips that i personally selected and supplied for them out of my archive of weez stuff. Use them to Mash-up your own Weezer video and you could win a day filming backstage with the band!



Yesterday (Sunday 11/1) was mostly a day of rest and recovery, except for Rivers, who made a special appearance at the Band Hero 'First To Play' event at the Nintendo World Store in Rockefeller Plaza to celebrate the release of Band Hero. Rivers signed autographs for fans of Band Hero and Weezer for an hour, as the Band Hero game was officially launched for anxious fans. Note that Rivers appears in the new Band Hero commercial that is launching 11/3, which also features Taylor Swift, Travis Barker, and Pete Wentz.

Today we headed down to Mtv Studios in a different part of Times Square to do the Alexa Chung show. Via our mailing list, 35 fans were picked to come attend this show, which some have likened to a 21st century TRL, only with fashonista Alexa at the helm, so a decidedly different vibe was in effect than in the old Carson Daley days. This is a live show, so there was a lot of hustling and "3,2,1.." type stuff going on from the behind the scenes people. Lots of hurrying up and here comes the cameras. After a guy from the new "V" TV show was interviewed and some sort of recurring Lady Gaga lookalike contest was underway, it turned to Weezer at last. The guys performed their new single "I Want You To" with their buddies Alex Greenwald of Phantom Planet and Nat Wolff of the Naked Brothers Band helping out on guitars. Leighton Meester was originally going to appear in the duet with Rivers as she had at Hammerstien, but was unable to make it in time so Rivers handled the whole thing himself. As Josh Freese was already back in L.A. for some Devo duty (now for the future), Pat handled the drums, and with the guys in their 50's video outfits, it looked a lot like the video. They sounded excellent as well, it was a good sounding small studio room. See the performance here on Mtv.com.

Tonight was the climax of the New York Super Weez Week. Not the final performance but the big one, down at the Hammerstien Ballroom, where Weezer played once before back in 1994, opening for Lush. The Hammerstien is a great if somewhat rough old ballroom, a perfect mid size venue to rock out in and give everybody a good sight line and decent sound. Sort of like the Palladium in L.A. but with less acoustical dead spots.

Being a Halloween show, costumes were encouraged, and many were spotted in the audience. Though many came as a "Weezer Fan", which is fine too! Onstage, the band got into the spirit of things, starting the show in their wicked bug costumes from the "Yo Gabba Gabba" show taping from a few weeks back. Then they had about 20 fans come on stage and help them get their costumes off, WHILE they played "Undone"!

Tonight we had some special guests onstage. No guest rapper for Cant Stop Partying, but Leighton Meester did the duet thing with Rivers on "I Want You To", while Nat Wolff from The Naked Brothers Band helped out on guitar for that song. Odd side note: check out the recently released DVD of "Inside" at Blockbuster, its a pre Gossip Girl Leighton role, directed by a certain Jeff, once better known for his weezer fandom on the old RCB boards!

Tonights opening bands were excellent: PT Walkley, followed by Matt and Kim.

Shoutouts to WeezerChild Hayley, and Doug and Andrew from WSIN 1590am, Southern Connecticut State University Radio, as well as Alex Greenwald from Phantom Planet (on hand to rehearse for his role in tomorrows Alexa Chung performance), and Chris Shaw, engineer on the Blue Album at Electric Lady studios, way back in '93. And a special shout out to Jason Neely, who shot the photo of his dog Sidney which graces the cover of "Raditude" now! He was given exclusive access to shoot the band during their soundcheck today. It was great to see everybody, costumes or no!

...Be sure to tune into the Dave Letterman show tonight, AND tomorrow night for back to back performances by Weezer with Paul Shaffer and the CBS Orchestra!!

Well, when you do two Letterman shows in one week, its kinda cool how familiar things start to feel... "Hey Paul, good to see you again!" and all that. It's cool how Dave's crew and people have a tight family and they are very welcoming. Paul Schaffer and the CBS Orchestra are all real nice and it was so fun watching them and the weez collaborate and work out how the jams would go. Guys like Paul, Will Lee and Anton Fig are real heroes to Weezer, so its a double pleasure to work with them. Todays performance was "(If you're wondering if I want you to), I want you to". Tommorrow (Friday) is "I'm Your Daddy", which was part of the Halloween episode taped on Monday. Both turned out really nice!

...Well the NYC craziness continues! Today Rivers went down to Billboard Magazine to do a photo shoot with Jermaine Dupri, for the cover of Billboard, which will be out 11/13. Victory! Then the whole gang reconviened at the PC Richard and Son theatre on Avenue Of The Americas near Canal St., for the Stripped / iheartradio secret show, which went down exclusively to a small audience of contest winners. After some interiviews and photoshoots with iheartradio, I had the pleasure of introducing the guys onstage. Todays set started acousticly like yesterday, with classical accompniment on a special cover of Coldplay's "Vida La Vida". Then the classical players were thanked and in came the rest of the band for the electrical portion of the short but very energetic and fun set.

Note you can check out the show starting Thursday 10/29 on the I Heart Radio iPhone/Blackberry app. More will be added in a week or two. Also you can check out more photos and videos from the show on iheartradio.com.

...First off, many mysteries about the many variations of Raditude preorders are now clarified and organized here: http://www.weezer.com/raditude/

...Special Note to NYC fans who want to try to get into Letterman when weezer is there! the show tapings are/were MONDAY 10/26 and THURSDAY 10/29. the Monday taping will air Friday, while Thursday = Thursday. Ergo, no Weezer actually at Letterman on Friday.

...Well its been a hell of a busy week so far here in NYC! We flew into town Sunday, although Rivers came early Monday on a red eye due to filming a commercial in L.A. (youll see, soon enough). Monday we went to Letterman in the morning and the band rehearsed with Paul Schaefer and his gang. Then in the afternoon, we returned to the Ed Sullivan Theater to actually tape the show, which will air this coming Friday as the Haloween episode. Some good suprises in store for ya!

Then we went to a rehearsal space in midtown near the Hudson so the band and some special guests could rehearse the acoustic sets for the Sirius XM show on Tuesday, and the Stripped performance on Wednesday.

Tuesday (today) came and we went down to the Hard Rock Cafe in Times Square, for the Sirius XM "Artist Confidential" show which went out live to air on satellite radio. Rivers opened the set with a special cover of the Killers' "Human" with accompanying piano, cello and violin players as well as our MD Jim on lite touch drums. Then the rest of the band came out for the rest of the set of weezer songs. Inbetween the performances, the band was interviewed by the Siruis XM Artist Confidential host Lou Brutus, who asked the tough questions that people want to know about.

Then Rivers went down to the Fuse TV studio to tape a segment for their alternative show. Not sure when that airs but should be soon. Everything is happening all at once!

Weezer's NEW VIDEO for "(If you're wondering if I want you to), I want you to", exclusively on Babelgum.com!

...Tonight was one for the history books, as Weezer and Wax shared the stage for the first time in 16 years. Weezer and Wax came up in L.A. at about the same time, but Wax barreled out of the gate, securing a loyal fanbase immediately with their high energy shows and great vibe, while Weezer thrashed about getting its act together, fighting for an audience and swimming against the tide of the LA club scene, which at the time was still mostly leftover Sunset Strip glam metal weirdness and jammed out funkiness. Weezer and Wax shared a lot of history before the two bands even existed, sharing members in prior bands, and so everybody was rooting for each other to do well. Wax became the band to beat, and Weezer took real inspiration from their showmanship and work ethic. When Wax got signed in '92, it was a milestone, the first band we personally knew to do this - proving it was possible.

Fast forward a few years and Weezer had followed suit, starting the long saga that continues today. Meanwhile Wax put out 2 fine albums and had an Mtv hit with their "Southern California" video by Spike Jonze - the infamous "man on fire" video. But about a year after that, Wax seemed to have had their plug pulled and they stopped touring.

Fast forward many more years, and we know what happened to Weezer. But meanwhile the members of Wax had gone on to do a bunch of various things. Joe Sib was in 22 Jacks and then became a SoCal radio personality. Dave "Burdie Cutlass" Georgeff started the sweet rock band Sign Of The Fox which is still going today. Tom "Soda" Gardocki has helmed several great bands including Soda and His Million Piece Band. And Loomis found himself an indispensable member of the Jackass family - whose founding member Johnny Knoxville - or P.J. Clapp The Knoxville Strongarm as we all knew him back in '93 - came up and introduced Wax tonight. 2009 has brought a long awaited Wax reunion, and happily a Weezer/Wax show again at long last. A lot has changed, but its great to know some things can still be experienced, pretty much as they once were. (ok, so theres a trampoline and Chamillionaire, but its still Weezer, dammit!)

Yes, I said Chamillionaire, of "Ridin Dirty" fame, who came out during "Can't Stop Partying" and laid down some wicked rapping of his own, making a unique version of the song instead of copying Lil' Waynes part from the album version. This was a reprisal of his efforts at the recent AOL Sessions, but as those havent been aired yet, it was technically the world wide debut of Weezer with Chamillionaire. It was a sight to see!

Also reprising her guest role from Kimmel and AOL was Sara Bareilles, who did the duet thing with Rivers on "(If you're wondering if i want you to), i want you to", to great effect both sonically and visually.

The whole show was kind of magical - theres something about the Palladium - it does have some bad spots acoustically, even post renovations, but the vibe of the room is just stellar for a great rock show - which in this writer's opinion, it was.

Remember to check out Weezer's NEW VIDEO for "(If you're wondering if I want you to), I want you to", exclusively on Babelgum.com!

...today in Hollywood CA, Weezer took the outdoor stage after the regular show's taping for a 5 song set, split between songs destined for airtime, and songs just for the kids in the parking lot to rock out to. The Weezer performance was taped today but will not air till sometime later, in November. We are waiting on the exact airdate.

The show that taped tonight (fyi) had Terry Bradshaw and Catherine Keener as guests, but Quentin Tarantino came down to the show to check out the weez, so in the spirit of doing the right thing, he escorted Catherine onto her show appearance and was a most welcome bonus guest at her side. The musical guest was Echo and the Bunnymen, who did their set indoors on the El Capitan's lobby stage down the hall from the Kimmel set. They were great.

But then came the additional musical guest, Weezer, outside in the back Kimmel parking lot on the big stage. The guys had prepared a special version of their current single "(If you're wondering if I want you to), I want you to", with Sara Bareilles doing a duet with Rivers as they traded off verses and harmonized on the rest. Sharp eyed fans may have noted an additional guitar player beyone Brian and Pat on stage for that song. That was Jim, who has been helping the guys get organized musically for the upcoming tour and in the meantime helping out here and there on guitar where needed. He is not a new band member, but in the upcoming shows he or other guitar players may guest on the occasional song depending on whats needed. All in the spirit of collaboration and mixing it up a bit.

The rock was handed down, with the fans in the parking lot as well as Quentin T. on the VIP couch soaking it in and having a ball. Next stop: The Hollywood Palladium, tomorrow night! And then to NYC!

...meanwhile heres some info on what happened yesterday, as the band taped their 3rd AOL Sessions with Sara Bareilles, Kenny G, and Chamillionaire! Dont miss the picture gallery! (these new AOL Sessions will be made available TBD)

...be sure to check out music.aol.com FRIDAY 10/23 for a special announcement! Weezer - the band who hunkers down and then comes out to blitz you with new stuff!

...San Francisco: The Regency Ballroom - Myspace put on quite an event this night, organizing things to fall in place just right for the fans and band. The Regency Ballroom is a great venue, that perfect mid-size for sweaty rock madness. Being a free show, the line to get in formed real early, at about 6 AM according to those first in line. Apparently the tenderloin district isnt too fun to camp out in overnight, so i dont blame the peeps for playing it safe. Meanwhile, weezer had some business to take care of down in LA that day, and multi-tasker Josh Freese was just getting off of another gig that afternoon, so the only realistic solution for getting up to the show in time to make a soundcheck was chartering a G-4 private jet. Yes, weezer is all about practicality, but with pizazz! In any event, it was real sweet snacking on cheese and crackers at 650 mph, making it from LA to SF in 45 minutes! And then the rock began. Openers Natalie Portman's Shaved Head rocked strong, setting the stage (literally) for the Weez attack. 3 Raditude songs in the set tonight along with the usual mix of old and recent and some cover action. The energy was big tonight, things got smashed, splintered and squashed!

WEEZER’S NEW VIDEO FOR “(IF YOU’RE WONDERING IF I WANT YOU TO) I WANT YOU TO” PREMIERES TODAY ON BABELGUM

TWO BACK-TO-BACK PERFORMANCES ON THE LATE SHOW WITH DAVID LETTERMAN, OCTOBER 29TH AND 30TH

BAND ANNOUNCES FIRST TOUR DATES IN SUPPORT OF RADITUDE

Weezer, 2008 Grammy Award Winners for best music video, will premiere their video for “(If You’re Wondering If I Want You To) I Want You To,” the first single off of their latest release Raditude, on October 20th. The video will be available exclusively on Babelgum for one week. It features actress Odette Yustman (“Cloverfield”) as the gorgeous femme fatale who visits the sleepy town of Weezerville and throws the locals- played by duplicate versions of the band members- into chaos.

In addition to the video, fans will also be able to watch behind-the-scenes footage and an interview with acclaimed director Marc Webb, whose credits include the beloved breakout film “500 Days Of Summer” and music videos for My Chemical Romance, Regina Spektor and Green Day. This isn’t Webb’s first experience working with Weezer; he directed the band’s video for “Perfect Situation” which featured actress Elisha Cuthbert.

In support of Raditude, Weezer announces a string of tour dates, kicking off October 24th at the Palladium in Los Angeles. The Los Angeles and New York City shows have already sold out. Tickets for the remaining dates go on sale next week. On October 29th and 30th, Weezer will appear for back-to-back performances on The Late Show With David Letterman. Weezer releases Raditude on November 3rd. On the same day, they will introduce the Weezer Snuggie, the band’s personalized version of the now-famous blanket with sleeves.

..."In the Time Magazine 2010 almanac on p. 97 within an article called "Play that Funky Music" there is a discussion about the video game Guitar Hero. 'Five colored buttons on the "neck" of the guitar are used together with the "strum" button to play along with songs by bands such as the Rolling Stones and Weezer.' There it is, Weezer and the Rolling Stones in the same breath."

...First of all, theres a new Tap Tap Revenge in town for the iPhone, Tap Tap Revenge 3! And there are 4 Weezer songs now available for it in the new Tap store, pick up 2 songs for $0.99.

...Rivers talks about "Raditude" and his various attitudes with Pitchfork. Read, think, know.

...Great news - Opening up for Weezer at the 10/24 Hollywood Palladum show will be none other than Wax! Wax has reunited for some historic shows after nearly 15 years, and it will be an amazing treat to see these guys in action, especially sharing the bill with Weezer again! Wax was a huge early inspiration for Weezer, who opened up for Wax at every opportunity back in the early days on the L.A. club circuit. Their energy, stage presence and the way they moved the crowd made Weezer straighten up and fly right on more than one occasion! So if you are going to the Palladium show, get there ON TIME or you will be missing out on the deadly Wax/Weezer combo, back again from 1993!

...Speaking of classic Weezer connections - Spike Jonze, who directed Weezer's "Undone", "Buddy Holly" and "Island In The Sun (second version)" videos, as well as the classic films "Being John Malkovich" and "Adaptation", is back again with "Where The Wild things Are", which comes out 10/16. But I had the chance to catch an early screening last night, and I had to say this - Spike NAILED it, this is a beautiful film that defies easy categorization and avoids easy summing up. I was expecting to at least enjoy myself because i do trust Spike's instincts, but by the time the kid had been in the wild land about 5 minutes i just went into a trance and totally bought what i was watching despite its clearly 'unreal' story and vibe. And the cool part is that despite it technically being a rather simple story about a kid who gets upset, runs away from home and learns some things about life, it doesn't lend itself to the usual cliches about imagination, learning how to cope, etc. i mean those things are part and parcel of the story, but not once did i feel Spike took the easy Hollywood way out, in fact it felt like he strongly resisted it to the end. Which, by the way, was genuinely sad yet happy at the same time. Bravo.
