\"\"<\/a>WEEZER TO TOUR AUSTRALIA<\/strong> FOR THE FIRST TIME IN SIXTEEN YEARS<\/strong><\/h2>\n

PLAYING THEIR GREATEST HITS<\/strong> AND\u00a0<\/em>\u2018THE BLUE ALBUM\u2019<\/em><\/strong> FROM START TO FINISH<\/em><\/p>\n

It has been sixteen long years since Weezer<\/strong>\u2019s one and only tour of Australia. After incessant rumours of potential tours, the resultant fervour that has taken over the nation\u2019s music fans remains unrivalled. Chugg Entertainment is excited to be bringing the band to our shores, with the opportunity to vindicate the enthusiasm and persistence of their fans all over the country.\u00a0 Greater still, their tour brings with it a follow thru from their recently announced US concept shows; performing a collection of greatest hits and rarities in addition to The Blue Album<\/strong>, from start to finish.<\/p>\n

This visit will be both a celebration for older fans, reveling in nostalgia from Weezer\u2019s storied Pinkerton <\/em>tour of 1996, and an introduction to a younger generation working their way back from more recent albums. <\/em>Such is the anticipation of this announcement that these shows are more than just a tour; they represent a culmination of years of collective longing.<\/p>\n

Weezer will play four Australian shows in January, starting at <\/strong><\/p>\n
