How would this even work? Would the crowd not be booing the ad-song? I can’t imagine a sponsor would want that.

Audible Dot Com! The place to be, Audible Dot Com! The amazing titles you'll see! Audible Dot Com! Its all you need, When you're drinking beers or smoking weed!
Audible Dot Com!"
- Weezer, a once decent band turned advertising group.
This is why more cool and talented people should be in the public eye. Weezer legit felt, when I was 16, to be the best representation of my aesthetics and values. Writers I liked referenced them. Their music was in ads for stuff I liked. And so my teenage personality was heavily influenced by these shitty people who made good music before I was born (and pretty shit music after I was born).
And that vulnerability and honesty and that highly creative style is what drew me in, in the first place.
it always seemed kinda cheesy and phoned-in to me. Like they just came up with easy melodies and wrapped them in the most accessible format. Like a Nickelback for a different crowd.
My friend went to a Weezer concert recently, he said there weren't any ads pushed.
Whatever. Rivers and co haven't written a great song since the Blue Album anyway.
I dunno man, Pinkerton had some pretty good songs. But after that yeah it was pretty much downhill.
I must be one of the few who really enjoyed the green album. But hell, even that was over 20 years ago
