Weezer recently released Toto’s 1983 hit Africa and took it #1 on the Billboard Alternative charts this week. In turn, Toto is releasing Weezer’s 2001 hit Hash Pipe tomorrow. Got it?
Here is another update to the musical story. Yesterday, while Weezer was playing Los Angeles, Weird Al Yankovic and his accordion joined the band on stage to sing Africa along with Rivers Cuomo. Who knew you could do a thrashing rock solo with accordion, but turns out you can.
This update on the update is so bitchin’, I think they should release it. Then at some point, Weird Al needs to meet up with Toto on tour and do Hash Pipe with them. Especially, since Toto gave this review the Weirdzer cover, “Nicely done Al!”
