''I attended the Paris concert and had already been amazed of how accurately the band had played all the songs. This feeling has been even more emphasized yesterday in London. Hot hot Brixton Academy !!! From "Tired Of Sex" to the second encore "Hash Pipe", it's been the same pleasure as enjoying the sound of Weezer records played live. Perfect setlist, perfect interpretation ... perfect situation. I can't think of any mistake done in any of the songs. Rivers' voice has never been so powerful and clear. Think of any drum or guitar detail in any of the songs you're so keen on the records, and it's right here, right at the same moment in the song, so that fans can mime or play air guitar (if not Air Weezer) along the whole concert. The more the band plays the songs of the latest record, the more I learn to assimilate them as genuine Weezer pearls. For instance, "This is such a pity" was definitely not a pity, rocked out like I couldn't think they'd ever be able to do it live. Obviously, a difficult sentimental break-up is definitely not the best thing to go through when you attend a Weezer show as "Hold Me", "Haunt You Every Day" tend to bring tears up to the eyes of many (mine as well). Rivers has probably said one of his longest sentences ever formulated at the end of the show, and took his best rocker posture at the end of "Hash Pipe" as a huge "thank you" to his English fans. No. Thank YOU guys. The more I see you, the better you are. Can't wait to see you again and again.'' ---Thomas Vandenberghe, former editor in chief of Rock Sound mag. | ''I attended the Paris concert and had already been amazed of how accurately the band had played all the songs.
