Here's a report from last night's gig

**********SPOILERS****** (I couldn't get the spoiler tags working )

Really, really good. Beverly Hills was extended even further than previously, with Rivers **** around with a talkbox. I think they tinkered with the structure of Don't Let Go a bit. Rivers said they'd be back, so he's either planning on continuing with the band beyond the end of this year or they'll be back before then. The setlist was something like:

<spoiler>
Don't Let Go
Undone
Peace
My Name Is Jonas
Why Bother?
El Scorcho
No One Else
Perfect Situation
Fall Together
Death & Destruction
Say It Ain't So
Buddy Holly
We Are All On Drugs
Beverly Hills
Photograph
Island In The Sun (acoustic)
Hold Me
Hash Pipe
Surfwax America
<\spoiler>

Brian and Rivers were both wearing sweaters, but Scott was too hardcore, according to Rivers. Someone threw a cardigan on the stage at the end and Rivers tried to make Scott wear it, but failed. Rivers was insane, jumping around. During the end of Undone, he was punching the air between hitting notes. I've never seen him so animated.

Tonight was Weezer at their very best. all the hits, everyone got their own song which kicked ass.
Last night's show was the most amazing gig i have been to in my life - Brixton last month was special, but this was something else!!

Right from when they nstarted off with <spoiler> Don't Let Go <\spoiler>, and Rivers just looked so pumped up and happy to be there. it looked like it was going to be special. Jonas absolutely ROCKED, <spoiler>El Scorcho<\spoiler> (at last!) was everhting i had been waiting for - the most epic singalong ever! I seem to recall everyone going absolutely mental when <spoiler>No One Else hit, Scott sang Fall Togehter really great and Photograph with Rivers drumming was brilliant.<\spoiler>

And <spoiler> Surfwax America <\spoiler> as the last song... i couldn't believe it. I would have sworn it would be Haunt You every day, or maybe Only in Dreams, but it totalyy surprised me and was just absolutely amazing.

now im really excited!

should i throw a pair of underwear on the stage?

Umm I think it was that blue one and it came with another cd with all b-sides and other recordings, i'm kinda hooked to it at this stage..... it's a really solid album you can't say anything bad about any one of the songs

I looks kinda like the small one in some of the pictures in the booklet but that's going to change today......

It's just i one pic i look sorta like him, it's probably my ****ed up hair

, getting a haircut right now though

**** i shouldn't even be here, i'm leaving for scotland at half one :eek:

Edit - thanks for the suggestion i'll try picking up pinkerton when i get a chance

Boo-yah · 23-08-2005 12:27PM

Rivers seems to have come out of his shell and the setlist is great. My only criticism of the Vicar St. gig is that Rivers' performance was a little subdued, so I'm looking forward to seeing Rivers performance tomorrow.

Tired Of Sex is fantastic. Pinkerton is a my favourite album, has been for about 4 years.

Make Believe is a big return to form imo.

i dont think they are sold out,they prob still have tickets for sale!

ANarcho-Munk · 23-08-2005 01:43PM

I've to get up at 4am tomorrow to catch my flight by 5am

Creamy Goodness · 23-08-2005 01:46PM

not a chance it's sold out.

i had a look at that setlist and there's one thing that's pissing me off

only two songs from their best album pinkerton, i know Rivers hates it but i mean come on.

each weezer album has it's moments but unfortualately some more than others.

blue - the whole album
pinkerton - the whole album
green - photograph
maladroit - slob (without a doubt the most confessional song Rivers has written since pinkerton)
make believe - This is such a pity.

i can see weezer making one last album and that's it, say 3 years at the absolute max

Scott was recently quoted in a magazine saying they are planning to release a "lost songs" and b-side album.

so that "lost songs" and album 6 will end their contract with geffen (they got a 7 album deal) and they'll break up with brian and pat working on the space twins and the special goodness respectively.

I think they have a good bit of steam left in them. I mean, they seem to be getting along with each other and seem to be really enjoying touring.
