Enlightenment Tour Day 11: Travel/Day Off (Indianapolis)
Studio Work: Indianapolis
Today the guys took full advantage of the open day and booked time at a local Indianapolis studio to continue work on the recent slew of recordings. Both the music masters and engineer Chad B were flown out from L.A., and by mid afternoon, the music was flowing. Today was basically an overdub session, with guitar parts and vocals added to many of the recently revealed demos. Brian added guitar parts to at least 6 songs, and Rivers overdubbed vocals onto almost everything, including putting some brand new lyrics onto "The Victor". Other songs experiencing some noticable work were "She Who Is Militant", "untenable", Hey Domingo", and "Running Man".

the fans have a plan...
okay, a lot of fans have been asking me to help them spread their grassroots plan to a larger audience. What they intend to do is get together and try and vote "Keep Fishin'" onto that Carson show on Mtv. [no, not his talk show...]. Their plan calls for all interested fans voting for the video on this coming Friday, July 19th. To do this, a fan says: "we need to vote after 1:00 pm EST on thursday through 12:00 pm EST on friday."
HOWEVER, there is ALSO a movement to vote for it on August 1st. See the various threads on the message boards for the latest opinions on this plan...[why not both, I wonder?]
"We're all gonna vote like crazy and show the WORLD the true power that is behind the rock of Weezer." ~Poopman5k
REMINDER: Thursday July 25th: Weezer will be appearing on The Late Show with Dave Letterman!!!
