Weezer Announce Weezer: The Gathering

Weezer are thrilled to announce Weezer: The Gathering, a major North American tour set for this coming fall. Promoted by Live Nation, the 32-city arena run with special guests The Shins and Silversun Pickups kicks off September 8 in Sacramento, CA and travels across North America before wrapping October 24 in Los Angeles, CA. Weezer: The Gathering follows the band’s sold out Return to the Blue Planet tour, celebrating 30 years of Weezer (The Blue Album), as well as the global touring juggernaut Hella Mega, which saw the band selling out stadiums all over the world alongside longtime friends and co-headliners Green Day and Fall Out Boy.
To celebrate this upcoming run, the band will be hosting events all over their hometown of Los Angeles for the next week – something they are calling Weezer: The Gathering – Initiation Week. From a trivia night at Barney’s Beanery this evening – giving even the most studied Weezerpedia reader a run for their money – to a pickleball tournament against the band themselves on Monday, March 30th, to other surprise moments around LA, Initiation Week is going to be one for the record books.
Information about all Weezer: The Gathering – Initiation Week activities can be found HERE throughout the week.
Weezer will also be releasing a new song next week on April 1 (NOT April Fools), from their forthcoming, still-untitled new album (release date TBC), which will be their first on new label Reprise/Warner Records. Entitled “Shine Again,” the song is everything fans love about Weezer and more.
Spanning more than three decades, Weezer are an instantly recognizable cultural force, with over 35 million records sold worldwide, cementing the foursome as an influential cornerstone of pop music. Indeed, songs from throughout their catalog have gone viral many times over the last ten years: currently, their song “Go Away,” a duet with Best Coast’s Bethany Cosentino from their 2014 album Everything Will Be Alright In The End, is Top 40 on the Daily Viral Songs Chart, averaging around a million streams a day all over the world.

TICKETS: Slipknot’s Artist Presale kicks off on Tuesday, September 29 at 10AM Local. Knotfest Presale starts at 12PM Local Tuesday, September 29 at 12PM Local HERE and is followed by additional presales throughout the week.

Earlier this month, Slipknot surprised fans with their anthemic offering “Arsenal” – the band’s first new track in over three years. The single arrived alongside its eerie and imaginative music video directed by M Shawn Crahan – (clown) and starring Jackson White. On “Arsenal”, Slipknot sound sharper than ever, the direct result of their commitment to the music, first and foremost. The track is an undeniable statement of strength in the face of diversity, and a new marker for the world to deal with and wonder how Slipknot was always – and still remains – so dynamic and modern.
The culture of Slipknot has spread much farther than anyone could have predicted when nine guys from Iowa put on masks and uniforms, and began challenging the globe to keep up. The band’s influence can now be seen and felt in the underground, in those artists headlining rock and metal festivals across the world, and virtually everywhere in between. Across genres and subgenres, artists the world over are following in footsteps that have led out of the Midwest and onto stages around the world. And all without an ounce of compromise, to anyone. That authenticity has lauded them billions of streams, a Grammy award and several nominations, multiple RIAA certifications, and most recently prior to now, a completely sold-out global anniversary tour across some of the largest stages around the world (London’s O2 Arena, Madison Square Garden, LA’s Intuit Dome, etc). And they’re not letting up.
Nearly three decades in, it’s evident that Slipknot still summon the drive, creativity, and band camaraderie required to make music like this. Their rise to becoming one of the greatest and most influential rock bands of the 21st century is marked by hardship, having weathered enormous personal tragedies and facing them head on, a drive that has earned them respect from their fans and naysayers alike. Through it all, they’ve kept a fighting spirit that’s allowed them to keep innovating, and keep testing the ragged edges of their sound to see how much further they can push it.
