It’s all been happening this week. A pop icon fell down some stairs on live telly, Weezer’s frontman River Cuomo tucked into a Middle Eastern snack and Blink-182’s Mark Hoppus got annoyed over the colour of a dress. There’s all that, and more, in this week’s Tweet Surrender…
That’s what the rock world needs – a nerdy man in glasses munching on slightly dry balls of chickpeas. Then telling over a million people about it.
