Went to the Weezer concert last night, and I must say it rocked. It was by far the best Weezer show I've seen. Maybe because it was at Roseland a so called "smaller" venue. The band was tighter and their sound was amazing, some tracks sounding just like the albums (which is good in this case because Weezer isn't an improv band). Their new album is pretty good, I like it more than Maladroit, and it draws comparisons to Pinkerton. Despite it's Pinkerton comparisons it still has that handful of songs that remind the listener of the Blue album days. It's a good blend despite the drastic slow down near the end of the album. On record and in concert it's refreshing to see Weezer adding synths and keyboards to their sound.
All around on the boards and websites they are saying that last nights show (the second and last of the NYC series) rocked the most. I believe it. Just goes to show you have to get tickets to the last show in a city, they always do something extra special the crowd the night before didn't get to see.
Here's the setlist for those that are curious.
Tired Of Sex --In The Garage--No One Else--This Is Such A Pity--Buddy Holly--Photograph--Hold Me--Getchoo--Say It Ain't So--We Are All On Drugs--Island In The Sun--My Name Is Jonas--Peace--Beverly Hills--The Good Life--Undone - The Sweater Song
Haunt You Every Day--Hash Pipe
