Weezer announce their own cruise in January 2012
Either this is a brilliant idea or the first sign that 2012 is indeed the end of the world.
When you think of rock bands and cruises, usually the bands playing on boats are older, washed up 80s acts that can barely fill any venue. But Weezer has taken this concept and applied it to their band and have brought many a hipster band along for the voyage.
Running from January 19-23, the cruise sails the high seas from Miami, FL to Cozumel, Mexico. While riding the waves towards your island in the sun, Weezer will be playing shows on the main deck of the ship. You’ll also get performances from Dinosaur, Jr., Wavves, Free Energy, The Antlers, Yuck, Yacht Rock Revue and more. Basically this cruise would be a hipster’s dream except that Weezer is a part of it.
So how much will it cost you to sail across the sea with the Weez? Just a mere $799…and that’s the cheapest price. So the best advice is to save your money and see them for $30 at a venue on terra firma. Unless you wanna stretch your sea legs along with Rivers Cuomo. Head to WeezerCruise.com for all the details, ye ironic landlubber.
