Following a teaser on their Facebook page last month LA alt-rock legends Weezer announced that they would be touring Australia for the first time in sixteen years, much to the delight of fans, and the dismay of those previously thriving on the idea that the band hate the nation. Despite a career spanning twenty years Weezer have only been here once before when, back in 1996, they promoted their cult record Pinkerton. Stopping off in Brisbane, Melbourne, Sydney and Perth, the tour will see the band play their greatest hits and rarities plus the full length of The Blue Album, in just the same way as their US concept tours do. For Weezer fans in Australia this is a must not miss opportunity, and one that many never occur again. Tickets go on sale first thing July 26th; be quick or you'll miss out.
