:::    "[[Jimmy Eat World]] opened, and was fantastic. The crowd showed little support for J.E.W, but J.E.W was fairly spectacular; they had an incredible stage presence. Jimmy was jumping around, head banging, jamming solos... Next came the D, demon posters and all. Tenacious D was great! I loved their Saxophone bit. Following the D performance came Weezer. Weezer was (and is) good. Very good. Also, very loud. But loud music is good. Therefore, Weezer is good. Weezer rocked. Although I wasn't all too pleased with The Green Album's slower songs, I enjoyed Weezer's newer/metal material.

:::    *Gasp* I even picked up a guitar solo. Multiple guitar solos. I haven't heard a solo since... Pinkerton? The new rendition of Don't Let It Go was great, strangely melodic. Eventually, Rivers and Company cranked out "My Name is Jonas." I rocked out, and played some mean air guitar. I was jumping up and down, air drums, air guitar, singing, enjoying myself, when this kid grabbed me and rudely said, "woah woah woah, settle down." As a fan can imagine, I was insulted. I was watching Weezer, a rock band. I most certainly wasn't watching a symphony. I'm entitled to rock out. You sir, are a moron. I hope you read this, idiot. I didn't wait years for a jerk to yell at me for rocking out to my favorite band. Overall, the general admission audience was pretty lousy. I expect running around, rocking out, body surfing, mosh pitting, and Weezer fan goodness. Heck, most in attendance didn't even know the lyrics. I guess they "settled down." Ugh!

:::    Weezer encored with Buddy Holly and did an awesome job with Surf Wax America. By the time Weezer encored... I didn't want to go home, just like they sang. I can't wait till next tour!" --Casey
