A disgruntled former Weezer fan, James Burns, has launched a campaign to silence the band. He decided he was “tired of being disappointed year after year” ever since the album Pinkerton came out. He says the “the abusive relationship” between him and Weezer’s music needs to stop. So how does he plan to make them go away? He has offered the band $10 million to retire and has even launched an online fundraiser to get the funds together. Naturally, lead singer Rivers Cuomo doesn’t think the stunt is cute. “They must get a lot of hits when they write crap about us,” he tweeted. Poor Weezer. [NY Daily News]
