Social Butterflies

Weezer frontman, Rivers Cuomo shed light on his time working with the talented sisters, Aly & AJ:

“I just wrote a song with Aly & AJ that was incredibly fun. It was such a blast to remember how teenagers approach songwriting. Their minds just work so fast and they have no fear and no ego. They’re just constantly pouring out ideas and trying different things. They’re just completely unafraid. It was very inspiring. ”

So nice! In other Aly & AJ news as well, Aly’s new movie, Bandslam which stars Vanessa Hudgens among others may create openings for possible tour dates and concerts in Los Angeles and New York.

Walden also has plans to better synergize Anschutz’s other businesses. While preferential treatment in Anschutz-owned theaters could run afoul of the law — Regal is a publicly traded company that comprises the Regal, United Artists and Edwards chains, and Walden doesn’t book its own films, anyway — the Summit-distributed Walden film “Bandslam” will take full advantage of Anschutz’s AEG Live to boost the film’s awareness level. “High School Musical’s” Vanessa Hudgens and Disney Channel’s Alyson Michalka star as high school rockers who enter a battle of the bands contest, and AEG Live will book dates at the Anschutz-owned Nokia venues in New York and Los Angeles, where the girls and other acts from the film will play.
