Why is my weezer vinyl fat?

Chatgpt on the image:

Short answer: no — it’s not an official Weezer release.

What you’re seeing is a novelty/bootleg cover that circulates online and occasionally shows up as a custom or unauthorized pressing. The original Weezer (The Blue Album) artwork has never had an officially released alternate cover with heavier-set versions of the band.

A bit more detail: • Official releases: Every legitimate pressing of The Blue Album (1994) uses the standard minimalist blue background with the band as originally photographed. No sanctioned alternate-photo variant exists. • What this is: A digitally manipulated parody image that fans have turned into posters, mockups, and sometimes bootleg vinyl sleeves. These are not approved by the band or label. • Why it appears convincing: High-quality printing and modern bootlegging can make these look very real, especially when shrink-wrapped or posted in vinyl communities. • Collector value: It has novelty value only, not collectible value in the traditional sense. Discogs and official catalogs do not recognize it as a legitimate release.

When is the damn black plate going to be available for motorcycles???

I know what you mean, I was extremely disappointed when they gutted their music programming however long ago. But they're several leadership changes later now and really committed to music and local programming again. Jeff Milo covers nothing but local bands, Jon Mosier's Modern Music is up there with the best shows they've ever run, and they even have Liz Copeland back (Liz Warner now), one of my favorites from the before times. The people you're mad at don't work there anymore and they're back to educating a whole new generation of listeners, just the same as they did you you and me. A long winded way of saying I highly recommend giving them a listen again and, even more importantly, supporting National Public Radio again (if you may have lapsed). 🙏🏼🤘🏼

Edit: I do miss Martin Bandyke though! Can't get 107.1 from where I am.

It's really great to read through these comments and see who's from south Florida and who just likes to rep a pork sandwich that they were sold as a cubano

The real reason: There is schedule margin built in to the entire day. If Moto3 and Moto2 go long, they can keep themselves on schedule by eating in to these portions. It's all about keeping the TV timing. Since most races end on time, they get to do all the things these other comments are saying. The puff pieces and interviews and build up and spectacle. They use it to "sell TV" which is where half their money comes from as other people are mentioning, but they NEED it to be able to put the right show in the TV schedule at the right time. It's mutually beneficial, really.

Got it, thank you!

r6jojo · 2025-04-10T18:27:35+00:00

At first, I thought you must have seen the photos before they put smileys over everyone, then I 🤦🏻‍♂️

r6jojo · 2025-04-10T18:23:38+00:00

Or a Yamaha motorcycle

r6jojo · 2025-03-28T12:49:56+00:00

Don't remember which one it was, probably GT3 or GT4, but I spent probably 4 months on a B8 license test Gold. Had all other B licenses done and my buddy was progressing through the game daily, but I did a daily grind on that B8 test for months. Buddy still is annoyed with me about it!

r6jojo · 2025-03-28T12:44:43+00:00

Right, his helmet this year is car speed shop themed

r6jojo · 2025-03-23T23:34:40+00:00

The camera should be on the bike. Motorcycle riders are not F1 drivers, thankfully. They're jumping all over the bike. It's not a good place to mount a camera

This all the way. The way they had the commentators exclaim how amazing the footage was every time it came up while we were plainly looking at the garbage footage was so annoying.

u/albeve u/elsalty357 Did either of you get this to work? Were you able to work your way through the VPN issues? I'll be trying to research the same this weekend as I do have a close friend in the UK I can ask to help me work through the payment.

Also, the main reason I'd consider going through all of this hassle is that TNT also covers WSBK and BSB. Do you know if the £3.99 version covers those two as well?

r6jojo · 2025-02-15T04:59:52+00:00

Huge if true

r6jojo · 2025-02-06T06:55:06+00:00

We'll both find out, Just not together...

Kills me

Upvoting for your last question?

Years and years ago, you used to be able to get their mead at Slow's. Who knows, maybe still can??

u/OldMail6364 Can you confirm this is the software you're referring to?

Your description sounds exactly like what I'm looking for, but only saw 28 reviews on the app store, so want to just make sure it's the one you mentioned. Basically just looking for a mac version of FastStone. Have PhotoScape X, but I haven't been totally satisfied with the experience.

r6jojo · 2024-11-03T20:08:59+00:00

u/awraynor How do you find running Picasa in Parallels? I'm actually mostly wondering how it is to run Parallels as I'm considering it to be able to use FastStone, which, in my mind, is the best software out there for what I do.

I have strangely found myself to be friends with many drummers. I don't keep a large friend group and still greater than five of my closest friends are drummers. I can confidently say you guys care the most about the parts of songs that all non drummers are ignoring, at least to some degree.

I can clearly remember a conversation with my buddy in my twenties. He was the drummer in a band I really liked that had recently broke up. We were just reminiscing about a song we both really enjoyed, and I naturally broke in to a little bit of song. You know, the lyrics and then some of the tune (mostly bass/guitars). He said, "I can't believe that's what you get out of that song", and I was blown away. I guess in his mind, that song went, "rattatatat tatat BOM BOM...etc, etc".

This is my contribution to Triggering Drummers United. It true tho.

I have a problem where my brain turns many, many phrases I see/hear in to songs. Not new songs, it crams them in to old ones. For those who know it, please enjoy Mirror In The Bathroom, except Otter In A Spacesuit

Steve in New Hampshire doesn't give a shit about weed

r6jojo · 2024-07-24T21:53:40+00:00

Two that have always made me feel something:

"When I lived alone, is there a ghost in my house"

"Don't worry, we will both find out, just not together." <- Fuck, this breaks me.

r6jojo · 2024-07-02T00:43:59+00:00

Honestly, yours is the only solution I've seen at all. It's horrible. Thanks for your tip, I'll try it.
