Hey guys,
So I’m writing a paper for one of my classes on Weezer fan culture and why people listen to them. I’d love to get insight from any of you who wish to help me out. Let me know why you listen to Weezer whether it be something about their music, you relate to their fans, their lyrics, or anything about the band that makes you a fan. Also, if it’s something about their music, it would be awesome if you would let me know what specifically you enjoy so much about it (eg. Melodies, song structures, harmony, originality, etc.)
Thank a lot!
-Lee

What class is this for?

Well, you don't have to be snippy about it. I don't think I understand the question. Why do you listen to Weezer. Get the ball rolling for me.

What are some of the reasons why you are a Weezer fan or what is it about their music you enjoy?

Actually, that is a good idea.

i am sure your teacher will be much more entertained by the antics of the juggalos than he or she would have been by the boring life of weezer fans. i bet you'll get an A.
Yeah. They have a much richer sub-culture than Weezer fans do. We aren't as organized as a whole.
