...A fresh 6 song demo was polished up today, thats the 4th demo in 4 weeks! This one consisted of the brand new songs "Break-Up", "Tough Guy Hat", "Drink In The Water", and "Mr. Taxman", plus remakes of "Mad Kow" (from the summer) and "Castles In The Sand" from the previous demos a few weeks ago.

...to the total surprise of the band, both the Philadelphia and Chicago shows have already sold out! Holy cow! Thats a whole lot of tickets to go that fast...I imagine that its possible that a small amount of tickets for these shows might be held back for sale after the "web-only" sale is over on Dec 31...but that's only an assumption on my part...

..and the Kevin and Bean "the real slim santa" CD came out yesterday, featuring weezer's "The Christmas Song"(original version)...I've gotten some comments that the production sounds a bit 'lo-fi'. I can definately confirm that the re-done remixed version thats gonna be on the Geffen radio promo 2-song "Christmas CD" is definitely superior. Still not exactly sure when radio stations should be getting that CD, but it must be very very soon...

...useful, (and not-so-good) news right from a fan...

"well, i emailed kevin and bean asking them if their christmas cd was going to
be available online or anything and how much of a shame it would be if it was
not because there are weezer fans all over the world wanting nothing more
than to sink their teeth into the first new song in years....and their reply
was: "sorry...only southern california...try ebay. --kevin"...i guess that's about
as official (and unfortunate) as it gets........

...and still no exact word on if weezer is doing 0 or 1 or 2 of L.A.'s KROQ-FM "Acoustic Christmas" shows, but we have confirmed the following, in San Diego....
