WEEZINE: Issue #1-14
1999réf. 80546Los Angeles California and Portland Oregon: Weezer Fan Club 1999. Complete run of the handcrafted Weezer Fan Club publication along with Weezer Fan Club Address Book which lists the name and address of more than 4000 members and the membership card of Weezer Fan #4339 name withheld. Also accompanied by the Weezer Christmas CD 2000 which features the tracks "The Christmas Song" and "Christmas Celebration". Weezine was the passion project of sisters Mykel and Carli Allan who started the Weezer Fan Club in late 1994 shortly after the release of the band's debut album. The quarterly publications served as a primary source of band news in the mid to late '90s. Issues of the zine consisted of around 16 pages each filled with fan submissions information on B-sides interviews with the band forms for ordering band merch and anything else related to Weezer. Tragically Mykel and Carli Allan along with their younger sister died in a car accident while caravanning between Weezer shows in Denver and Salt Lake City on July 9 1997. Karl Koch Weezer's general assistant and "unofficial fifth member" assumed control of the zine beginning with Issue #11 which was dedicated as a tribute to the sisters. Weezer headlined a tribute concert in Hollywood California on August 15 1997 to help cover the funeral costs and dedicated their third album Weezer Green Album 2001 to the Allan sisters. Production of the Weezine slowed down significantly in the late '90s both due to Koch's other commitments and the lack of news caused by the band's post-Pinkerton 1996 hiatus. The zine along with the fan club as a whole was officially ended by Koch and the band around 2000. All issues are photomechanically reproduced on standard white stock and folded to digest size 5 1/2" x 8 1/2". The first ten issues are bound with staples while the final four are simply folded. Accompanied by two mailing envelopes. Some very faint smudging to a few issues; else near fine. OCLC locates no holdings. Weezer Fan Club unknown
