Any other man of questionable masculinity spits in your face, you shank that bitch. If Rivers spits in your face, consider yourself annointed by the All Father of Nerd Gods and immediately go purchase a lottery ticket.
in my opinion, I don't think he's smashed. He's just wonderfully weird, and if you listen to the song, he embraces the fact. He's just being himself, which is an awkward rockstar! he's not ashamed of the fact. However, he could be drunk :L, but either way, still an amazing performance!
Onstage meltdowns. It's symptomatic of someone who does not want to be in show business. It's always the beginning of the end. Always. Once you start traveling down that road you will NOT turn back because it is the stupid thing to do. Being a successful music artist is not in the least bit fulfilling and never has been. This goes all the way back to Bach, Mozart, Beethoven, etc. They were unsatisfied too.
Lol, it's funny, the reason I came to watch this video was so I can see how Brian does the bending sound in the chorus. But he's playing Rivers part and Rivers is playing with Vodka so I don't get to see that :P + D:
Rivers is a cool ass geek, but hes not. A geek, i mean. Hes very clever. The thick ass rim glasses dont mean someone is a geek, and river is a very dark and moody person. He has "issues" he struggles with, and those issues come out in his song writing. His actual chord structures for some songs are quite technical. He knows fully what hes doing.
Saw these guys on blink-182's reunion tour in 09 and they were incredible. SO much fucking fun. Rivers Cuomo is a doll. <3 and I doubt he's drunk. He acted the exact same way when I saw him. He's just odd. :) and if he is drunk, damn, he still sounds pretty great!
I gotta give it to Rivers, carrying around the mic stand, cleaning the stage, singing with what looks like water in his mouth but is probably vodka!!! Good show
rivers is not drunk .. he's just doing those things because the song is about expressing yourself in any manor you want and not caring about other people's opinion : )
they were such a good band....dont get me wrong they still are but he was like drunk and they went from a nobody to some1 over night there heading down a bad path.
Someone correct me if I'm wrong but is this the Hammertsein Ballroom in New York? I was watching this video and it looked very similar to the venue where I saw Dethklok and Mastodon.
@chancho1818 It's because he was foolish enough to throw the water behind him! He flung water all over the stage. That's why he proceeded to grab a towel by the drummer.
@Wold91 ive seen rivers twice i think thats just how he performs, super eccentric, saw him last night at bumbershoot and he ran all around the stadium during this song
@Wold91 or you know he could be exhusted. It is hot up there. I was up close to the stage when they preformed in Atlantic city this year and It was hot just outside the stage. I can't imagine how hot it was on the stage
@Wold91 If Rivers is drunk ??Then??Shit!!Rivers is even a true professional !!He even remembered ALL OF THEIR SONGS LYRICS??Rivers is AWESOMENESS TIMES 25!!Right??
Weezer is such a catchy, polished band, but they've never lost their dorky simplicity. BTW, this video ROXXX!
