Weezer is a largely vegetarian and vegan band, so you know the tour rider will be full of requests for good stuff.

The Smoking Gun was able to obtain a copy of the food requests while on tour. Lunch should always offer a “vegan alternative,” and suggestions such as a “vegetarian type soup,” or “vegetarian chili,” and veggie versions of hot dogs, hamburgers and other meat entrees are made.

The boys are attempting to make things eco-friendly, as the demand, “NO STYROFOAM ANYWHERE,” was printed in CAPS. But one team of students at University of California San Diego found that paper cups actually require more energy and more materials to make, release more emissions into the atmosphere and use more waste. Oh, Say It Ain’t So!

Weezer “Raditude” Makes Us Wonder About Rivers Cuomo

Weezer "Raditude"

Weezer has new album out, Raditude, and we think it sets a very bad example for the love sick vegetarian fool.

The song, (If You’re Wondering If I Want You To) I Want You To, (as if the long winded-ness of that title wasn’t enough), has some poor dude eating meat in hopes he’ll get to some base with his girl.

“I took you to Best Buy, you took me home to meet your Mom and Dad
Your Mom cooked meatloaf even though I don’t eat meat
I dug you so much, I took some for the team”

Ugh!

This we learn after reading a Tweet describing Rivers Cuomo‘s amazement at veggie burger technology.

We’re wondering if Cuomo sat quietly like a veggie pus and actually ate meat during a date with an omnivore before.

All we can hope for is during the next dinner date, the “If you’re wondering,” guy made an announcement he’d just turned vegetarian.

And that this flying dog voluntarily played hurdle track star for the cover.

Raditutde features a singing collaboration with Lil Wayne (Can’t Stop) and songwriting input from The All American Rejects, Jermaine Dupree and Jackknife Lee.
