Weezer
Weezer are a notable alternative rock band active since 1992 and best known for their 1994 self-titled album and its 1996 follow-up Pinkerton. The band currently consists of lead vocalist and lead guitarist Rivers Cuomo, rhythm guitarist Brian Bell, drummer Patrick Wilson, and bassist Scott Shriner, the latter joining the band in 2002.
Matthew Bellamy likes Weezer. He has proclaimed that he loves anything that Weezer does. He didn't like Weezer's 2001 self titled album (aka The Green Album) at first, but it grew on him.[1] He likes it in part due to it being short and simple. Dominic Howard said Weezer is one of his favourite bands.
Dominic Howard and Christopher Wolstenholme went to a Weezer gig in April 2002.[2] The whole band attended Blue Album night of Weezer's Memories Tour in Los Angeles at the GIbson Amphitheater (11/26/10),[source?] and Howard was spotted backstage at Pinkerton night of Weezer's Memories Tour in Los Angeles (11/27/10).[source?]
In 2019, Weezer opened for Muse on the Simulation Theory tour in Paris.
