Wait, why do we need the album again? Brown can explain. They were able to use that pandemic break to complete the redone version of “Teenage Dirtbag,” and by the end of this year, should have the whole album to release again. They had grand plans, as we all did, but you know what got in the way.

Last year was meant to be the 20th anniversary celebration of the track and Wheatus’ debut album. TEENAGE DIRTBAG 2020 Even if you were not a full-fledged teen or adult in 2000, you still know “Teenage Dirtbag.” Between being used in movies, Rock Band 4, and covered by multiple artists (One Direction, SZA, Dashboard Confessional, Phoebe Bridgers), it has remained a song that immediately causes you to break out your rendition. (By the way, if you are saying, “Summerland isn’t coming to my area,” all I can say now is just be patient…) Brown about Summerland, “Teenage Dirtbag” at 20, and even dumpster fires. One of the bands excited to head out is Wheatus, creators of THE SONG of summer 2000, “Teenage Dirtbag.” We spoke with front-man and original member Brendan B.

Those of us with office jobs may have enjoyed being away from our annoying co-workers for more than a year, but if your lifeblood is the stage, it had to have sucked to sit home. Happily enough, the bands are feeling the same way. Everclear, Hoobastank, Living Colour, and Wheatus were called off the bench to get themselves back in fighting form to hit the road ASAP, and after waiting more than a year for a live show, we have become rabid fans ready to pounce on our beloved bands. SUMMERLAND TOUR 2021 Wheatus Takes On Summerland Jby Traci Turner It seems like we went from lockdown to a million concert announcements overnight, and one of the first tours to start happening in the US is the Summerland Tour.
