    Weezer's the most underrated band in history. They deserve to be in the hall of fame

      Porter Rockwell What are you on? Weezer are a massive band, everyone knows at least 7-8 Weezer songs as classics, at least in the UK anyway. They're very, very well known and revered.

    Whenever I have a social interaction where I acted really awkwardly, I go watch a Rivers Cuomo interview video and I feel less alone and weird. Love him!

    I think he's a role model for those of us who are naturally shy or suffer from stage fright. He still gets up there and does his best to reach out to fans although I think the whole celebrity thing is probably a struggle for him. He's a genius, but still comes off as a genuine soul appreciative of where he came from.

      Gretchen Foss yes he's been my role model since I was 13 I'm now 20. Being a musician and having social anxiety is so hard sometimes but not all hope is lost. Rivers is so special :-)

    I've always known he wasn't comfortable being in front of the camera and doing interviews back then but I didn't know that 20 years later he would still be nervous. It's kinda charming to me

    He's so awkward and shy, it's adorable! It makes me feel good that not only I am like that when confronted or talked to, but so is my idol, Rivers. I just saw him in concert a couple weeks ago and he looked like a frightened little deer, but when I saw him back in 2010 he was doing all kinds of crazy tricks and talking to the audience.
    Maybe it's an act, maybe he's going through something tough, or maybe he's just like this.

    This is actually a really good interview in my opinion.... the interviewer lets Rivers talk, asks good questions and doesn't talk down to him like some interviewers did in the 90s. Rivers might not make a lot of eye contact but he answers all the questions fully and talks a lot... and smiles! :) He's the best!!!! =w=
