The End of an Era
The always delightful Adam Parker and I officially removed the =w=’s off of our cars last night. Weezer has broken up; but beyond that, they have lost that thing that makes them awesome. Who’s to say what that thing even was (though I have my theories, most of which revolve around former bassist Matt Sharp)… the music is not the same.
I have had that huge flying W on my car (Lucy) since I got her (February of 2002). It has never stood for the World Wide Wresting Federation, nor has it ever professed my love for George W. Bush. It’s always been a commitment to the band that reminds me of my younger days in the ‘burbs.
The residue is still left (see this flickr pic), so the legacy will live on a little longer — at least until I can procure some goo-be-gone.
I posted lots of pics from the last week or so on Flickr and Facebook last night. Depending on your drug (read: social networking client) of choice, czech them out.

sad..but long overdue. 20th Century Weezer > 21st Century Weezer.
like a single tear shed, i’ll pour some out in honor of the days of blaring Pinkerton out the window of a car as it passed Pinkerton elementary.
you are my querida
