Today the troops assembled in Chicagoland for the first Weezer appearence here since last year. Yesterday the crew and the gear showed up, today everything got set up and tested all morning and afternoon, and in the evening the band arrived, fresh off the plane from L.A. to fine tune the rock for tomorrows tour kickoff here at the Aragon Ballroom. They rehearsed for about 3-4 hours, going over sections of the set and repeating various songs to get the sounds dialed in and the transitions ironed out. The bulk of the preparation was already done in the past 2 weeks of rehearsals back in L.A., but theres always things to go over one more time...

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.

...Be sure to watch the Carson Daly show on November 26, for live footage and backstage nterviews with Weezer and co, filmed on 10/24 at the Hollywood Palladium.

...Weezer will be hosting Mtv2's Subterranean show on December 6th.

...people, new bits of info keep flowing in, so without further ado...

...The worlds first(?) Twitterview is happening today, with Weezer. Don't forget to go to AskWeezer.com now and send Weezer your questions for the unique Twitter Interview to be conducted tomorrow. The interview will unfold before your very eyes on Weezer's twitter and askweezer.com.

...It's like Marvel Team-Up, only with Weezer and Kenny G instead of Spider-Man and the Human Torch. Could this really happen, or will it be like Marvel's "What If?" stories?

...New Rivers interview/live weezer footage on Vimby.com!


...Rivers Cuomo and Jermaine Dupri at their photo shoot for Billboard mag talk about their mutual admiration and the "Can't Stop Partying" that came from it. Billboard mag featuring RC + JD on the cover comes out soon!

...Weezer will be hosting Mtv2's Subterranean show on December 6th.

...special note to people who preordered a fan pack (Raditude + snuggie or variations therof) - due to a huge snuggie demand, this has led to a small delay in shipping some orders. Apologies if you have not received your package yet, the backlog will be caught up with in the next few days. And for people who are ordering the package with the photobook - its in production, its gonna be ULTRA-cool, thank you for your patience, you are gonna love it!

...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:
