After that fucking monstrosity of a Weezer show a few years back at Whiteriver, you couldn't pay me to sit through another cringe-worthy Weezer set.

I saw Weezer back in 2005 and I'm 100% happy leaving it at that. Nothing they've done since then has a single moment of redeeming value.

Yeah, even when they played the Blue Album and Pinkerton in 2011, it was still pretty bad. A free show is a free show though.

I've seen Weezer twice in the last few years and both times I had a blast. I would totally go see them again.

I won a one-day VIP pass at the Kokanee tent thing last year, the one between the Yeti and Bigfoot. That was sweet. I was one of like six people in the hourly drawing. Imma do that shit all the time this year. I won a pair and The Head and the Heart were playing an acoustic set. I decided it would be more fun to do anything else, so I didn't go. I've seen Weezer twice in the last few years and both times I had a blast. I would totally go see them again. Ditto, saw them in 2010 and 2011 and had a blast both times. Their music may suck now but they still put on a fun show in my experience.

Queens of the Stone Age at the corral August 8th, Vampire Weekend at the Jube August 7th.
And of course both tickets are on sale Friday. Fucking hell. Trying to get those and Coachella tickets at Sasquatch should be great.

Trying to get those and Coachella tickets at Sasquatch should be great. Cool. Will definitly see Vampire Weekend. I had both pegged for X-Fest. Curious to see who X92.9 pulls out the hat this year. Sure as shit won't be nay worse than last year with Incubus and Linkin Park.

Man, I want to see BMSR really badly, but I am just too busy to make it tonight. I'm not jealous that it's at the Hawthorne though, I don't really like that place.

I saw him play as Tobacco at Holocene a few years ago, it was awesome. I wish every venue was as solid as Holocene.
