“My Name Is Jonas” / “The Good Life” / “Buddy Holly” is the
best extended group of songs I’ve heard at any Weezer show! “Jonas” features a playful riff at the end,
and “Buddy” adds streamers to its famous pause, one of my two favorite pauses
in all of music. Plus, that’s the first time I heard a full version of “The Good
Life,” the song that defined London, my coming out, and this blog!!!!
Heh at “Thank God for Girls.” Bit of a letdown.
This is my first time hearing “Undone” in concert with the recorded
sections — so much better that way!!
Lol at the Baltimore pander during “Pork and Beans.”
Lol at their cover of TLC’s “No Scrubs,” which is apparently
only the second time they’ve played it live.
So authentic... Points for
commitment though.
I’ve somehow never heard “Paranoid” by Black Sabbath before
(I’m a bad person), but it’s AWESOME.
“Stand By Me” is a great follow-up, especially with Kat’s
inspired gesture, linking arms with our whole upper-deck group!!!
Lol at the random van that makes its way through the crowd
during the Jane’s Addiction “Up The Beach” cover.
I’m no “Beverly Hills” fan, so I appreciate the extended
licks between verses.
HA: “Rock stars need to tune too — none of this prerecorded
b-------.”
Glad Danny likes the line introducing “Islands in the Sun”: “time
for some adult contemporary.” It may no
longer be hip, but it’s still so smooth.
I don’t care what anyone says; “Perfect Situation” is my
jam.
Lol at Kat’s dancing middle fingers and Danny’s dash to the
bathroom during their cover of “Africa.”
Why did not they not play “Only In Dreams”?! It would have made my night and the night of
so many other fans. Oh well -- “Surf
Wax” and “Say It Ain’t So” still slay.
