Weezer's tribute is not the first song to be written about the Allan sisters, nor would it be the last. A Los Angeles-based band called [[Black Market Flowers]] first wrote a song of their own called "[[Mykel and Carli (Black Market Flowers song)|Mykel and Carli]]". Friends of the sisters, and acquaintences of Weezer, they were asked to open [[Weezer concert: 08/15/1997 - Hollywood, CA|the tribute/benefit show in honor of the sisters]], headlined by Weezer, and also featuring [[that dog.]], at the Palace Theater in Hollywood, [[August 15]], [[1997]]. The benefit show was the last time "Mykel & Carli" was played live for many years, played solely by Rivers. "Mykel & Carli" was finally played again by the full band on [[January 20]], [[2012]] during the first indoor show on the Weezer cruise. | Weezer's tribute is not the first song to be written about the Allan sisters, nor would it be the last.
