As an album release party, Cuomo held a [[Alone II hootenanny|Hootenanny]] in which fans chose what songs were played and performed along with Cuomo. No other members of Weezer were present at the "jam session." Cuomo also revealed that a new compilation dubbed ''[[Odds and Ends]]'' will be released during 2009. It will feature a variety of b-sides and songs that "didn't make the final cut for [a] record". It'll be very much in the vain of Rivers' two demo releases and may be the final release to expire the band's seven album Geffen contract. | ||
