Dallas EdgeFest show: fans say...


"...well i just got back and holy crap that was amazing. we got there at about 3:15 and saw oleander play first then lifehouse then weezer. for oleander there were maybe 40 out of 10000 standing. and for lifehouse noone outside of the pit was standing. and for weezer about 95 percent of the people were standing. it was utterly amazing to be there and you could very easily see that the reason this show sold out in record time was because or weezer. but about the show, the set was what i thought the perfect amount of time. they played about 7 new songs and about 10 oldies. me and my friend were goin nuts. he is really big and i am really small and we almost got kicked out for dancing in the isles!!!! it was the coolest. the staff there were bein kinda jerky about not letting people stand in the isles yet noone did anything about the chicks in the pit possibly getting raped. they would be on top of the crowd and you would see their top come undone and then they would just sink into the crowd. this was what pissed me off most. after the set weezer went and signed autographs and i got to hug all of them." --Levi

"...This show seemed wierd to me because they were playing really slow. There was hype potential. I was on the lawn and during the first chorus on undone and say it aint so the speakers totally crapped out. You could hardly hear any sound at all. I was holding my ear up to the stage. The people in the seats didn't seem to notice. They didn't come back until the verse (quiet part). There was one time (I can't remember when) when everything sounded like it was distorted for about a second. Even Rivers. I think you guys blew their speakers. Or something. If it's too loud, turn it down. On a positive note, when the speakers were working (most of the time) the sound coming out of them was really good. Sweet tones. I got there at 12pm and baked all day till =w= came on and yeah, the sunburn was worth it. But after Surfwax I had to haul ass (as did many other people, apparently), so I hope you guys didn't play an encore. But as a =w= fan, you pretty much know it's safe to haul ass after surfwax." -Brendan
