hey! i'm new to the /mu/ forums and i haven't seen any weezer, specifically pinkerton, discussions. i've listened to weezer for a little over a year and i have some background info, as i read the wikipedia and weezerpedia many times and have read most of the 1995 chapter of pinkerton diaries. if you have anything to add or say, go for it mate.

slightly related but here's something i found in "the good life";

in 1995 (specifically april 14, yes i know the date) he broke his leg and multiple times in pinkerton diaries he claimed he was like an "old man" and that's referenced in the good life's lyrics "broken beaten down/cant even get around/w/o an old man cane" (verse 2 or so) and "cause i dont wanna be an old man anymore" (chorus i think??)

The only Weezer I've listened to is Raditude and I hated it so I never bothered with any of their other albums

Check out Blue and Pinkerton. Most people think itโ€™s their only good work
