Music: Guy offers Weezer $10 million he doesn’t have if they break up

  • Every year, Rivers Cuomo swears that he’s changed, and that their new album is the best thing that he’s done since “Pinkerton,” and what happens? Another pile of crap like ‘Beverly Hills’ or ‘I’m Your Daddy.’ This is an abusive relationship, and it needs to stop now.
  • Weezer hater James Burns • Explaining why he started a campaign to convince the band to break up, with the help of $10 million in forthcoming donations. Why would he do that, you ask? Because he hates Weezer, and did even when they were artistic titans. “But this isn’t about me,” he writes. “This is about the Weezer fans. They are our brothers and sisters, our friends, our lovers.” How much support does this guy have, anyway? $160. No zeroes after that. $160. From six people. That’s it. We don’t see this happening. source
