This is not about football but about a time not so long ago. RIP Rick Ocasek. Great tunes, great memories while I was in Houston.

Awesome talent. I bought the album my Sophomore year, one of my favorites of all time. Did not know about Weezer, another favorite of mine (Beverly Hills, etc.). Thanks for the info !!!:smiley:

Yeah. Some of their most famous hits Weezer wanted to take off the albums and he told them nope, that songs a hit you’re keeping it on. Good thing they worked with him!

Major bummer to learn of his passing. The Cars are always my go to for feel good tunes. I feel like if Ben had not passed so young they would have all done more together in the last few years.

“Bye Bye Love”

Which brings up the biggest mystery in Rock and Roll. Keith Richards how are you alive?

RIP
