{{Karl Koch quote 2|lucky guy ladd martin won the local seattle area contest to have weezer play an acoustic set in the winner's school cafeteria. in this particular case it was shorecrest high school.
this unplugged set produced two cuts which later made an appearance on the much delayed "good life" [oz edition only] cd single. high school kids love it when rock stars come to their school and sing songs about lesbians [why we dont know!].}}
{{Karl Koch quote 2|Weezer performs an acoustic set in Seattle, WA at the Shorecrest High School cafeteria. This show was part of a contest held by KNDD 107.7 The End, where high school kids could win a Weezer performance at their high school. Ladd Martin of Shorecrest High won, and got to introduce the guys on stage. The acoustic show was broadcast live on 107.7, and later, recordings of "The Good Life" and "Pink Triangle" appeared as B-Sides on The Good Life OZ EP, and the acoustic "Pink Triangle" also was on the Pink Triangle radio promo CD single. Years later a well shot videotape of the performance that was never intended for public use ended up on YouTube where it remains today.}}
