if there's one band i want for next year, its them. One of those bands that i love that ive never seen. Listening to Pinkerton non stop right now, and i'd love if they even only played one or two tracks from that album, it make my festival perfect.

anyone else share the same hope?

Weezer are one of my favourite bands ever. If they were to play you can be certain they would play the good life off pinkerton but not sure they would do anything else. Im sure if they play it would be dominated by blue and red album. The red album is very good in parts but the non rivers songs are a bit below par. It is however far better than maladroit and make believe which were both poor.

My ideal setlist

Blue - Buddy holly, sweater song, say it aint so, my name is jonas, in the garage

pink - good life, pink triangle, falling for you

green - photograph. island in the sun, hash pipe

red - Troublemaker, the greatest man, pork and beans, heart songs

Bit bias to red album as it isnt an amazoing album but picked these songs because ive never heard them live.

They have been playing Pink Triangle, Getchoo, El Scorcho and The Good Life on their US Tour. What they are doing though is giving the other members of the band the vocals in certain parts of certain songs. Make of that what you will, I would still travel a long way to see them.

I do like the Red Album but it has a few filler tracks in there. Infinitely better than Make Believe but not as good as Maladroit in my opinion. I think that album is critised wrongly as it is actually their best work since Pinkerton (given that most of the tracks on it are B-sides and demos from that period). Pinkerton remains for me about as close as musical perfection as you can get.

Heres the set list from Madison Square Garden

1. My Name Is Jonas

2. Pink Triangle

3. Perfect Situation

4. Say It Ain't So

5. Susanne

6. Keep Fishin'

7. King

8. Undone

9. Pork and Beans

10. Dreamin'

11. Dope Nose

12. Troublemaker

13. Automatic

14. Hash Pipe

15. El Scorcho

16. Morning Glory

17. Greatest Man

---------------------------

18. Island in the Sun

19. Beverly Hills

---------------------------

20. Heart Songs

21. Buddy Holly

Good mix of all albums there, nice to see alot of Maladriot and Blue in there. Only three off Pinkerton but thats three more than you would expect to be honest.
