The '''Flying =W=''' is an iconic [[Weezer]] logo. The famous Flying =W= was designed by [[Patrick Wilson]] during the making of [[Weezer's third demo]], when he and [[Karl Koch]] were 'drawing' by dispersing fuzz that had collected on the studio walls. They found it amusing, and Koch reproduced the logo onto the back of lead singer [[Rivers Cuomo]]'s jacket using the engineer's labeling tape. Supposedly, Cuomo wore it around LA until the tape fell off. It is a simultaneous homage and spoof of Van Halen's classic logo, which featured 'wings' protruding from the band's initials "VH." | The '''Flying =W=''' is an iconic [[Weezer]] logo.
