Free Press Profiles Weezer Ahead of Saturday Show
Brian McCollum of the Detroit Free Press profiled emo rockers Weezer ahead of their Saturday show at the Cobo Arena. The band has endoured where similar acts have vanished developing a huge underground following. The success of the ticket sales can be tracked to the internet as Perry Lavoisne of Clear Channel revealed, “You had to follow the Internet activity. That’s how we knew ahead of time. It was pretty much the same as when these classic rock bands go back out for the first time — the fans just come out.”
