Weezer Apologizes to the Get Up Kids

Posted by on Mon, Oct 19, 2009 at 4:00 PM

Okay, so Matt Pryor of the Get Up Kids told a story to Spinner earlier this month about the tour they did opening for Weezer back in 2001 (it played Memorial Hall, and Ozma also played, and it was fucking AWESOME). So, in it, Pryor said of the Weez that they were "the only band I've toured with for a month that I've never spoken to. They're jackasses."

Well, Rivers Cuomo is telling his story and making overtures towards healing via Twitter:

Aw. How sweet. If anyone is going to be in NYC around that time, let us know it goes down, okay? In other news from that story...the Get Up Kids played with the guys from Cheap Trick?!?! Is there footage of this?
