Frontman [[Rivers Cuomo]] sat for some now-famously unsuccessful interviews during this tour. | Frontman [[Rivers Cuomo]] sat for some now-famously unsuccessful interviews during this tour. One of the most notable ones was conducted on [[October 5]], [[1996]] on ABC's ''[[ABC Recovery interview with Rivers Cuomo - October 5, 1996|Recovery]]'' in Australia. Dylan Lewis, the show's host, calls him "Rivah Weezah," and the interview was conducted while Cuomo was both jet lagged and hung over. Cuomo also wouldn't retain eye contact with Lewis, leading to the interviewer trying to get his eye contact and not looking at his pad. When reflecting on the interview in 2019, Lewis stated "It is funny, now I can sort of chuckle a bit and then I’ll feel like I’m nearly over it. It was live and he was off his nuts. He wasn’t jet lagged, he was wasted. [...] Look, I love him but I can’t listen to Weezer anymore."<ref>LeFevre, Jules.
