weezer gig!

Rcuomo

just back from the weezer gig in the point and what a gig! they were much more energetic on stage then usual, think rivers must've been on something. and the accoustic island in the sun, where rivers went to the opposite end of the arena, was great as well
and a bunch of us got to meet rivers and pat at the window of their dressing room after, i have to say the point's security guards are the worst ever, they chased us away once and then they go on a coffee break or something so we went around the back of the dressing rooms. rivers and pat ran off at first but then came back and started signing autographs and shaking hands.
anyone else at it?

i was at the front of the stage cose i got pushed there!

the whole show was brilliant and i love that rivers played at the back of the arena that was brilliant!rivers was going around the stage and on the florr of the stage at one time!

Rcuomo

yeah i wasnt too impressed with turn, nine black alps were ok... have some potential...

THEZAPPA

yeh i agree,turn songs sounded all the same to me!

nine black alps are class if you know there stuff unfortunatly i didnt make it to see them there was bloody road works in ashbourne which took ages to move along was a disgrace, didnt even know turn were playing there a decent band from there cd's never seen them live.

Weezer were class which was expected, crowd was a good crowd too for a change not as many tools just standing there as there usually are.

and whats with them bars coming out of the crowd are they there permanatly now?
there a joke!

i didnt like turn the drumming is all the same for every song they sound good on cd but not live tbh!

nine black alps are good but didnt really enjoy them that much maybe cose i just wanted to see weezer!

Rcuomo
