In [[1998]], Finn was invited to play with Weezer as a potential replacement for Matt Sharp. This resulted in several rehearsal sessions over a period of weeks, but Finn was ultimately not chosen, and [[Mikey Welsh]] joined Weezer.  
In [[1998]], Finn was invited to play with Weezer by Patrick Wilson, ostensibly as a potential replacement for Matt Sharp. This resulted in at least one rehearsal session during Pat's several weeks of time in Los Angeles. The rest of the time was consumed with a lot of hanging out with Patrick, and some with Rivers. In what was described by Pat later as an awkward turn of events, Pat Finn was ultimately not chosen, but not clearly informed of such, and returned home to Portand, OR. Later, [[Mikey Welsh]] joined Weezer. In hindsight it was theorized that Rivers may have had an eye on Mikey all along, or at least didn't think Pat was going to be a good fit at that point - but wasn't able to come out and say it.


In [[2005]], Finn appeared onstage with Weezer during a performance of "[[Undone - The Sweater Song]]" at [[Weezer concert: 10/25/2005 - Portland, OR|a concert in Portland, Oregon]] on the [[Foozer Tour]] on [[October 25]], [[2005]]. Rivers Cuomo wrote [[Rivers Cuomo blog posts - 2005#October 26|a blog post]] about Finn shortly thereafter.
