It's probably going to be an unreleased B-Side called "Getting Up and Leaving" that was supposed to be on the Pink Triangle single.

good call on "Blast Off". but just knowing that it's Pinkerton era, you know it's gonna kick ass.

Someone (May 17, 2003)

It ain't. It's apparently unheard even in mp3 form.

turdcorn (May 17, 2003)

I'd buy it just for the Pettibone art.

fracturedstart (May 17, 2003)

buddyhead sold out.

Someone (May 17, 2003)

how did buddyhead score a unreleased weezer track when they always bash weezer?

IowaNick (May 17, 2003)

they bash new weezer, not old weezer. plus making fun of rivers and his asian fetish is just so easy.

Someone (May 17, 2003)

or mikey's cokeheadedness

Someone (May 17, 2003)

don't forget rivers' kid-toucher beard

Someone (May 17, 2003)

anything with both pettibon and iggy involved cannot do wrong......even if weezer is involved.

Someone (May 17, 2003)

i'm not excited by this at all because i'm apparently the only person in the world who hates pinkerton. ~Zäk

I think river's was contractually bound to hate it for a while...but yes, you're the last of the haters, so to speak. ;)

themuffingirl (May 18, 2003)

ahhh i hate it too

sickboi (chris) (May 17, 2003)

I think it eats ass too, the blue album is the only one worth owning.

Someone (May 17, 2003)

if you hate pinkerton you have no musical taste whatsoever. that's that.

sickboi (chris) (May 17, 2003)

You're right, let me clean out my desk and I'll be out by 5:00, douche.

Someone (May 17, 2003)

you should get comment of the day for that. ~Zäk

RightCliqificus (May 18, 2003)

no no no. the comment of the day only goes to "good" comments.

Someone (May 19, 2003)

we could only be so lucky.

IowaNick (May 17, 2003)

i had heard rumors about this. just curious as to where the person got this news from?

blaubs21 (May 17, 2003)

it was actually sent out on the Weezer mailing list.

FortyMinutesWest (May 17, 2003)

And yet Aaron North is still a douchebag.

Someone (May 17, 2003)

I'd do him.

Someone (May 18, 2003)

your band got a bad review i guess... haha.

FortyMinutesWest (May 18, 2003)

Or maybe he rehashes the same jokes over and over, is an elitist bitch, oh, and did I mention he's just a little pretentious. To top it all off, his band is fairly mediocre, a far cry from what the band of someone who talks as much shit as he does should be. It always makes me laugh when people say that Buddyhead is gutsy. If it's gutsy to talk shit over the internet, then every visitor of this site should be on Fear Factor.

Someone (May 18, 2003)

they're gutsy in real life too. its not like they hide behind a computer. they all over the place and easy to get to. if you have something to say to them, step away from ---your--- computer and say it to them in person. they're not hard to find.

FortyMinutesWest (May 18, 2003)

What, are they going to fight me? I've never met them, but I wouldn't hesitate to call Aaron North an arrogant, obnoxious, asshole if I ever saw him around. It's also funny that they whine about jocks this and jocks that when they're basically the jocks of the underground music scene, atanding above everyone else and putting everyone else down.

Someone (May 18, 2003)

done crying yet?

Someone (May 18, 2003)

He's 100% right though. - Scott http://www.local-felons.com/ (Customer Service weee!)

FortyMinutesWest (May 18, 2003)

Yep, I'm done. You can go back to swinging from Buddyhead's nuts now.

Someone (May 18, 2003)

how are they jocks? that must mean kurt cobain was a jock too for saying certain bands sucked.... i think it's part of the game.... part of the entertainment... yes it's entertainment... lighten up and stop being such a pussy... you're just crying cuz buddyhead dissed all those shitty emo and pop punk bands you like.

Someone (May 18, 2003)

They're like jocks because of how they act like they're better than everyone else. Oh yes, since I dislike Buddyhead I must obviously love bad pop punk and emo. Don't you just love assumptions? I'm going to assume that you like to wear fishnet stockings,slather your chest in mayonaise, and have sexual intercouse with a food processor. That sounds pretty baseless, doesn't it?- FortyMinutesWest(posts won't show up when I'm logged in)

Someone (May 18, 2003)

What a fucking baby.Because they shit-talk bands it means they think they're better than everyone else?Unless you like every band thats ever exuisted that makes you the same,and by your logic a 'jock' too,stop crying you emo pussy.

Someone (May 18, 2003)

Oh, emo pussy, that's original. I don't care if they talk shit, it's the way they go about it that's annoying.

Someone (May 19, 2003)

thier not sensetive enough to the bands feelings guys comon if you put all your heart and soul into something and then they bash you for it youd cry too just like i do when they make fun of my favortie bands, i email them all the time and tell them that i still love them even if buddyhead doesnt i also provide myself and any of my family for sexual favors so that they will look at me at shows and we can share a moment-FMW

Someone (May 19, 2003)

dont waste your time with the child.

FortyMinutesWest (May 19, 2003)

Yeah, Fourty Minutes West is an ass, I hate that guy.

Someone (May 19, 2003)

it's annoying? are they coming to your house and telling your how much they hate your favorite band? no! STOP GOING TO THE WEBSITE IF YOU DONT LIKE IT YOU LITTLE HYPOCRITE.. YOU'RE TALKING SHIT YOURSELF AND GUESS WHAT, YOU'RE ANNOYING TOO BITCH! stop being a pussy, have a beer, and listen to some slayer.

FortyMinutesWest (May 19, 2003)

I drink and listen to Slayer. I don't go to their site. You know what's annoying UNNECESSARY USE OF CAPS!

Someone (May 19, 2003)

you don' tlisten to slayer... or you'd think buddyhead was cooler than this warped tour infested site.

FortyMinutesWest (May 19, 2003)

Oh I'm sorry, I didn't know not liking Buddyhead didn't allow me to listen to Slayer. Thanks for the tip scene police.

waste_elite (May 19, 2003)

after reading all your comments, i've gotta say that you take buddyhead, aaron, travis, etc. waaaaay too seriously. if you've ever read interviews with aaron, you'd find that he isn't exactly pretentious or malicious. he's just fucking around, being an asshole for the fun of it. the funny thing about the guys from buddyhead is that they really aren't elitist, cream of the scene, hipster elitest. they're a bunch of nerds that talk like they know what's going on and everyones buys into it. people like you are what fuels these guys, they want to be hated, they want your reaction. i, for one, find it pretty fucking brilliant. and aaron has gotten himself throttled a few times, just for reference.

Someone (May 19, 2003)

I know they're kidding, I just don't find them funny. They come off like a bunch of kids who got beat up in highschool and now find this as a way to be cool. What annoys me more than them are the kids who take their words like gospel.-FortyMinutesWest

Someone (May 19, 2003)

i'm sure that does bother you.... i love that it bothers you bro. suckin dicks.

FortyMinutesWest (May 19, 2003)

I guess sentence structure bothers you, "bro".

Someone (May 19, 2003)

this person is smarter than you.

FortyMinutesWest (May 19, 2003)

Holy shit that got alot of replies, you fanboys are an angry bunch.

sickboi (chris) (May 17, 2003)

Should Buddyhead get an incon, I mean technically they are a label....

FortyMinutesWest (May 17, 2003)

Since it's Buddyhead, the icon should be really obnoxious, so hard to see that very few people get it, and only enjoyed by about 3 people.

Someone (May 17, 2003)

haha

Someone (May 18, 2003)

fuck yeah buddyhead should get an icon, they are one of the only indie labels putting out non-warped tour mall shit.... use their backwards gun as the icon bitches!

Someone (May 18, 2003)

use the Nothing Nice to Say drawing of travis for the icon. boom.

Someone (May 18, 2003)

what that? link it!

Someone (May 17, 2003)

Buddyhead is for the kids

gutterhippo (May 17, 2003)

does anyone know what the =w= track is called?

Someone (May 17, 2003)

Weezer was suppose to release a pink triangle single but I dont think they did and I think the song is off of that

Someone (May 18, 2003)

Pinkerton era is the only era worth caring about. before they turned into total shit.

3+ Replies

Someone (May 18, 2003)

Dude you turned intno total shit

Someone (May 18, 2003)

No arguments here. I did, in fact, turn to shit. Have you ever tasted shit? It tastes just like it smells. Delicious. Can you believe I made that joke up? I'm so inventive and witty.

Someone (May 18, 2003)

Well, actually, Dave Chapelle is. If you're going to rip off some one's material, at least do it from a lesser known comedian

Someone (May 18, 2003)

I think that was kinda the point there buddy. by the way, WAKAWAKA!

themuffingirl (May 18, 2003)

weezer is boring.........always werer
