Download has already been confirmed hasn't it?
I'm sure Ozzy and Sharon were mumbling on about Rivers at some point.

Tickets are on sale Friday at 9am. You might as well sign up for the mailing list in case there's a pre-sale, but I don't think there will be. Also, yes, tickets will go very, very fast indeed. Personally, I can't fucking wait; I saw them once on the 'green album' tour, and they were shite, and then at Reading around 'Maladroit' time, when they fucking shined. Let's hope they pull it out the bag this time round!

£26.50 plus booking fees?

Screw that, Weezer haven't made a decent album in years.

I'll see them at Glastonbury or something.

I think I look pretty stupid with it as my user name at the moment anyways. My first post was a reply to the news bright eyes were touring and would be playing London on my birthday…I was excited…chose a bad name. Its always logged in on my computer at work no hassle with passwords or whatnot so I kept posting with it. I don’t foresee my tastes changing anytime soon though.

I'm glad my dad's obsessed with Weezer...he's more obsessed with Weezer than I am, so he's paying for this. Expect to see a shaggy-haired 16 year-old and a balding 41 year-old man going mental on June 14th.

i really hope theyre lined up for glasto. on their last tour, i paid £32 for two tickets, its gonna be that for one on this tour with booking fees. it damn well better be a good show! if you go to ticket master or one of those it says how much they are.

plus i hope none of this nine inch nails ebay ticket touting stuff happens!

not really a rare stint is it?
they were here a year or two ago when the last album came out, and that was a full uk tour.

What a tour! Taking in some of the top venues in the country! All 3 of them! And for the ridiculous price of 26.50! What a load of rubbish. One of my favourite bands have completely let me down.

Was really excited but then I saw the ticket price. By the time I've travelled up there the night will have already cost me £40. Bollox to that.

I've seen some proper legends for less money then that, when they are on to their 10th album I might see it as value for money.
