I hope that small indie band does good with their label. Plus that Jason cropper kid looks confident I hope he has a long career in the band.

Now you can just copy and paste this video as the intro to the five hour long full Weezer history documentary you make before ending the channel

Babe wake up. Marcbutevil uploaded

i loved the part where marc said its weezin time and then weezed everywhere

So you are telling me that weezer didn’t start from River’s ex being the lead singer of the band and leaving then making Cuomo become the frontman ?

Weezer was there all along next to adam and eve they were a creation of god

I met these guys. Was in a recording studio in Kennsington Market, recording a piece on lap steel. The owner of the studio had found me busking and invited me to come down and record. In return i made him a logo for his biz. So it was the hottest most humid day, the air conditioning wasn’t working so there was sweat running off of my face and dripping down onto the guitar, like a river. So these two guys from Weezer walked in for some reason and we had a short chat. They said they liked my sound. I said it would sound better if i was not underwater or something to that effect. I had no idea who they even were at the time and didn’t know for years who weezer where. They were called Weezer at the time; they had a rehearsal space exactly in the building on Queen’s Quay where my ex girlfriend, Alice, was putting on fashion shows and such and there were big parties there. That part, about Alice is rather a long strange story. She was too beautiuful for her own good and literally every guy wanted her. Anyway…carry on, thx for making this video :)

I'm a death metal fan but I'll always have love for the green album, and the blue album

Another great video, Marc. I really appreciate you mentioning how big of an influence KISS was for Rivers. Surprisingly, few people talk about it.

It's unfortunate that Blue released a month after Rivers' (and Weezer in general) inspiration died

I’m pretty sure Rivers debunked that he had asthma a long time ago. His dad called him Weezer because of the Little Rascals character, because he was “the cool one.”

I am crying rivers of tears 😭

My favorite comment gets pinned next Saturday

I had no idea it was a Sloan show that gave Weezer a bit of A&R profile. My first and only Weezer show featured Sloan as the opener. They definitely complement each other.

Surprised it's not an April Fools vid, but it's a pleasant surprise, this is nice!

Great video Marc. Honestly, I was expecting for a video like this one for awhile. You did a very good research and as always I learned a lot about Weezer.

That ending gave me chills and Weezes

Awesome video. I saw their tour with the Pixies a couple years ago and heard how Rivers talked about his admiration for them.

I remember Zoom, lol. They would be flying around Sunset Strip on their skates, peppering the cars and poles with their flyers, and they wore these Dana Strum hairstyle wigs, and just towels on. The band wasnt bad, yet not great, Rivers was like a cross between KK Downing (his hero)of Judas Priest and Paul Gilbert on guitar. Great times in 89.

Lost it at the Pete Best comment. Love your videos and snark as always, Marc. Keep it up, dude.
