The show is interesting because everyone's old LA friend Matt Sharp (then living up in Berkeley CA) came to the show. Within 3 months he would be in the band on that stage at the Phoenix, Pat Finn would not be in it, and a whole new group of songs would be taking over the setlist....|[https://web.archive.org/web/20140519063146if_/http://daveandnikolai.com/wzr/classic/03_Recording_History/WeezRecHist2.html Weezer Recording History, Page 2]}} | The show is interesting because everyone's old LA friend Matt Sharp (then living up in Berkeley CA) came to the show.

{{Karlification box|Rivers helped his friend Kevin Ridel (later of Lunch Box and Ridel High) record his Christian rock songs, for an album for Kevin's new band, The Truth. Rivers helped engineer this demo, and helped with back-up vocals, and probably the guitar playing.|[https://web.archive.org/web/20140519063146if_/http://daveandnikolai.com/wzr/classic/03_Recording_History/WeezRecHist2.html Weezer Recording History, Page 2]}} | |||
Ridel got a band together to play live shows as The Truth, but when he noticed some gaps in his lineup, he got Cuomo to play bass and Finn to play guitar. The other members of the band were [[Jeffrey Urbach]] and 3 unknown backing singers. The band played at least one show at the Whiskey a Go Go in Hollywood, California after several rehearsals. "My Salvation", "With You In Heaven", and "I Belong To God" are known to have been performed at this show. | |||
{{Karlification box|Kevin was getting together a band to play shows in his latest attempt to establish himself on the LA scene. Upon discovering some gaps in his band 's line-up, he asked Rivers to play bass, and Pat Finn to play guitar! They practiced together several times (the band also had some bonehead drummer and a trio of heavenly back-up singers), and they played at least one show, at the Whiskey in Hollywood. it was a stellar performance, and may have been recorded, no tape has surfaced as far as I am aware.|[https://web.archive.org/web/20140519063146if_/http://daveandnikolai.com/wzr/classic/03_Recording_History/WeezRecHist2.html Weezer Recording History, Page 2]}} | |||
