Rivers Cuomo Photo Gallery from Fingerprints
Friday, November 28th, 2008
Like I mentioned in an earlier blog, the Press Telegram was at the Rivers Cuomo hootenany. They managed to capture a couple of photos with me in them. Here I am in the red sweater, standing right next to Cuomo. My husband is on the other side of me. This is from the beginning of the evening before the place filled up. To see the entire gallery, visit the Press-Telegram on-line. There are also some great photos and a write-up at pitchforkmedia.com.
Weezer Singer Rivers Cuomo Conducts Hootenanny at Fingerprints in Long Beach
Friday, November 28th, 2008
I was one of those lucky enough to get a copy of Alone II - The Home Recordings of Rivers Cuomo the day it came out. And I didn't realize how lucky I was until now that I also got to spend an evening up-close and personal with Weezer singer Rivers Cuomo and about 100 of his hardcore fans this Tuesday.
At the time, I absorbed the entire event as somewhat of an outsider because in all honesty, the only songs I knew before this in-store were Undone (The sweater song) and Buddy Holly. I can honestly say I never owned a Weezer song in my life. Luckily, a last minute change in plans made it possible for me to attend and document all the details of the Rivers Cuomo hootenanny at Fingerprints in Long Beach and pick up a copy of Alone II. The event really was a hoot and Rivers Cuomo is a musician with diverse influences and flexibility which makes his new CD more like a historical journey than a snapshot of a man.
