This seems like an appropriate time for an anecdote. I always thought Weezer were the coolest guys. Then one time I read an interview in Rolling Stone (I think) where the dude is walking in LA w/ Rivers Cuomo. They get to some club that Rivers wants to go into. He walks to the front and tries to get in and the bouncer stops him. He then pulls the "do you know who I am?" thing and even produces a laminated Weezer backstage pass w/ the band's picture on it to show him. Then the owner has to be called out to usher him in. Anyway, this kind of ruined my image of Weezer. I still like their music a lot, though. I've also read a bunch of that kind of stuff about Beck, which is also kind of disappointing.
