Weezer Teams Up With Buzznet for the Nastiest Online Food Fight in Honor of Their New Single 'Pork & Beans'
LOS ANGELES, April 25 /PRNewswire/ -- Have you ever had the urge to fling food at your friends? Well, here's your chance. In celebration of the release of their highly anticipated new single "Pork & Beans", Weezer has joined forces with Buzznet, the leading online music community, to wage an all-out pork and beans food fight.
When Buzznet users go to their profile page, they just might find pork and beans splattered all over it for everyone to see. Users can retaliate by joining the Web's largest and nastiest food fight and posting a special code in their friends' Notes on Buzznet. As more notes are left, the density of the pork and beans will grow. Fans can also invite their friends to join the food fight by sending them the invitation link.
Sounds like good, disgusting fun, right? Well, Weezer fans and Buzznet members will be happy to know that every time they hurl pork and beans at their friends, it will also benefit a great cause. Weezer and Buzznet have selected Conscious Alliance, the non-profit organization that distributes food and resources to U.S. communities most in need, as the recipient of a donation to be given at the conclusion of the food fight.
"Weezer is one of the most influential bands and we're thrilled to collaborate with them on this special Call to Action that brings together their fans and our community of millions to celebrate their new single and support an important cause," said Scott Boyd, Buzznet's Music Manager. "We love working with bands that aren't afraid to step outside the box and look to us to create truly unique and memorable campaigns that will resonate with our community."
"Buzznet is an excellent platform for our artists to express their originality," said Aaron Foreman, VP Digital Marketing, Interscope/Geffen/A&M Records. "We're excited to bring Weezer and Conscious
Alliance together through this creative medium."
Weezer's new single "Pork & Beans" is now available on iTunes. The band's sixth album, titled "Weezer" is set to be released June 24, 2008 on DGC/Interscope Records.
