==History== | ==History== | ||
Weeze was a short-lived band following the release of their debut, and only album [[Make Believe (Weeze)]]. After the release of their debut, Weeze had performed and planned several live performances throughout the Spring season of 2005, but due to internal conflict between bassist Scott Shriner and lead vocalist Elisha Cuthbert, Cuthbert parted from the band. | |||
As the band scrambled to find a new vocalist, frequent roadie and caretaker of the band [[Rivers Cuomo]] fills in during a live performance. | |||
After the performance, Weeze had found a new groove with their new vocalist, which lead to the rebranding of the band, with the new name of "Weezer", with the "R" standing for "Rivers", a homage to the first name of their new vocalist, [[Rivers Cuomo]]. | |||
