10 Pieces Of Homemade Weezer Swag Spotted On The Weezer Cruise

There are Weezer fans and then there are Weezer fans. Take the 10 12 enthusiastic individuals pictured below, all of whom were spotted on The Weezer Cruise, which returned last week from 5 amazing days at sea aboard the magnificent Carnival Destiny. As you’ll see, said fans came prepared with all manner of homemade or modded Weezer merch, each item a loving testament to their favorite RAWK band.

As with all of our lists, this one is presented in no particular order. Unless otherwise noted, all photos were snapped by the author.

1. Weezer Adidas tracksuit, custom embroidered for the occasion.

''Walk through concert doors...''

On the back.

''...and roam all over coliseum floors.''

2. The same enterprising individual was also said to smuggle a giant flag — emblazoned with the band’s signature visual, the so-called Flying W — onto our floating vessel. Let’s just say that we’re not naming any names…

''And the rocker's (sic) red glare, the bombs bursting in air/Gave proof thro' the night that our flag was still there...''

Look for the flag at the :05 mark! Simply amazing…

3. For the record, there was more than one flag spied on the boat. Here we have the Union Jack, as adorned with a home-scrawled Flying W.

''I am not the flag: not at all. I am but its shadow.'' - Franklin Knight Lane

Captain Cuomo, performing “The Greatest Man That Ever Lived (Variations on a Shaker Hymn)” in said flag!

Don't thread on me.

Two For Tuesday: The Return Of Ferris Bueller & David Wooderson

It’s hard to let go of past glories. To wit, both Matthew Broderick and Matthew McConaughey have recently reprised what are arguably their most iconic film roles (Ferris Bueller and David Wooderson (Dazed & Confused), respectively).

Broderick turns in a lukewarm performance as himself in an ad for Honda that will appear during this Sunday’s Superbowl telecast. There are a number of Bueller references embedded in the treatment, but I didn’t find them particularly funny or clever. (Cameron’s presence as a manic counterweight is also sorely wanting…)

Likewise, McConaughey (“I get older, they stay the same age.”) dons the pink hot pants in a music video for buzzed about roots rockers, Butch Walker & The Black Widows. Even more than Broderick’s effort, this cameo comes off as forced; the music and the setting are a poor match for his character’s breezy, ’70s brio…

Our Tux Tee Takes The Cake

The awesome new video for Cake’s “Mustache Man (Wasted)” was shot right here in Portland, Oregon by our good friend, local photog and videographer Alicia J. Rose.

The treatment, developed in tandem by the band and the director, pays homage to both Saturday Night Fever AND Repo Man. As you might imagine, it is hilarious. Watch it below:

Fans of Found Item take note: our classic Tux tee makes an appearance on the band members themselves, starting at around the 2:15 mark.
