    Still not a clue as to why that is a thing.

    makes me wonder if it's a legal thing, if The Dangerous Summer and Dangerous Summer are legally different entities

    But I don't believe their presence on social media has a different name. Just the re-pressings.

    I don't think that would matter in the legal scenario, they aren't making profit from their social media pages.

    We'll have to see what happens when the new record is announced as well as what they're on tour bills as.

    What's weird is that they would have to change the name even though The Dangerous Summer released War Paint not Dangerous Summer. I understand if they were to omit "The" from the upcoming release though, but this seems odd

    The Reach for the Sun reissue from December is also still labeled "The Dangerous Summer," so whatever it is, it's a new development.

    I don't think it's a legal thing. "Dangerous Summer" and "The Dangerous Summer" are so close to each other that there would still be a (strong) likelihood of confusion. And for their social media profiles, even if they're not making a profit from their social media pages, those are still commercial uses as their purpose is largely (if not entirely) marketing/promoting the band and their music. (And, yes, I am a lawyer; this isn't my area of expertise, but I do have some experience with it. Also, this post does not constitute legal advice to Dangerous Summer/The Dangerous Summer or anyone else, it's just my own thoughts and opinion!)

    Maybe they're just planning to drop the "The" for the new era of the band and are just moving slowly/awkwardly with the transition. Personally I like just "Dangerous Summer" better.

    I'm super interested in "Weezer Vibe." That would be interesting coming from them.
