Weezer had everything you’d expect them to have as far as set design for this show. Great lighting, a drum riser designed to look like a lifeguard shack, and of course, the notorious light up Weezer logo hung high. During their seventeen songs, Weezer laid it all out. Old tunes,
new tunes, even the in between tunes were played.
One of the many things that make a Weezer show great are singing along to all their songs. There are just so many classics and if you’re a fan, you know ever word to every song. A live Weezer show is just a fun place to be regardless of musical preference. Another great thing about this show in particular is that we got a few great surprises.
At these types of irregular scheduled shows, bands tend to cut loose and try new things.
Weezer is no different. Fans had the pleasure of hearing the live debut of two new songs from the White Album at this show in the Steel City. Wind in Our Sail and Summer Elaine
and Drunk Dori were both played for the first time ever in front of a live crowd. This is something I’ve actually never experienced at any concert
and will always remember it because of that as I’m sure many other fans will. The surprises were not over yet though. During Weezer’s
performances of Island in the Sun, drummer, Pat Wilson, and bassist, Scott Shriner swapped
instruments mid song.
