HELP!! My sister is a wheeeezer fan...

The friendliest place on the web for anyone that follows U2.
If you have answers, please help by responding to the unanswered posts.
Are you refering to Weezer the band or wheezers as in old men?

If it's the band, I don't see the problem. If it's because of her infatuation with men over 70, well then I see your concern.

I love Weezer - Rivers is amazing, but unfortunately seems to be an asshole.
When people are assholes during interviews, it's a real turn-off. But they rock, nonetheless.
 
It's not THAT bad, at least its not Destiny's child or Eminem *shudder*

Weezer is great, Rivers Cuomo is awesome. And when they toured as "Goat Punishment" I had a good chuckle.

I concur. I have seen Weezer twice this year. There could be a lot worse. Not all music has to be meaningful, you know.
 
What should you do?? You should be thrilled that unlike my sister, your sister does not like Backstreet Boys, NSync, Britney Spears, O-Town, and S-Club-7!!!

I have tried converting her since she learned to talk, but so far I can only get her to like "Walk-On", and agree that Larry is cute. She calls Bono "my dirty old man". She is 18 for heaven's sake......
 
weezer are good. their first album rocks.
and so is the second one even if it is a bit sad. the last song on the second album is great.

Listen to their Blue Album (esp. "The Sweater Song" and "Holiday") and you'll understand why it's a fucking great band

PS : You might also notice that on their first album, all their songs have a sex connection .. woaaaaaaaa...

Had the rare opportunity to see U2 and Weezer on consecutive nights last month at America West Arena in Phoenix. What a difference in the vibe of the place and the amount of security. U2 the place was a nuclear missle silo it seemed to me as I had waiting in the GA line. For the Weezer show it was complete anarchy. I think 90% of the people there ended up on the floor from rushing security guards. Fights everywhere...not a fun night. Plus that arena is too big for Weezer. Very strange feeling.

ok, weezer may be a good band but it kinda bothers me that my sister thinks they're better than U2. I was watchin MTV2's control freak the other night an u2 bd, aerosmith cryin, dmb everyday. she goes "oh no, why is u2 winning!" she left an aerosmith won by 1 percent. i wonder if she likes any u2 at all or if it's the new u2. i've tried watchin elevation dvd an she left the room. oh hell, 13 year olds don't know good music. i might make her a cd later with all of the popular songs from the boys albums. then she might like em
 
Go to a Weezer concert, then you'll understand why people like them. 2nd best concet (1st is U2) I've ever been to! They make great albums too.

yeah, rivers is a strange character. i actually hung out with him for a night in paris, during the summer of '98. i was studying abroad at the time, and was hanging out w/some friends at a random bar. we ended up hanging out in a big group- my friends and his friends- for the whole night. i ended up talking to him a lot- he went to harvard and i was attending yale at the time, so it was interesting to get a "rock star's" perspective on college life. we watched the sun rise the next morning. it was strange. he's definitely a smart-ass, but i think there's a pretty nice guy underneath...

ah, who knows. either way, their music is still pretty fun!
