It was brilliant despite the fact they were looking knackered/morose on stage. Saw one geek get picked up in a wood panel station wagon too, was bizarro world. They also made an appearance at 78 records (when 78s wasn't complete shit) that afternoon and played a few songs, they had to close the upstairs section because of the amount of alterno-teens who couldn't go to the show that night. I remember it was videod and played in 78s for months after.

There was some brilliant gigs at Planet. Faith no more in 1990 (way too young for that) but saw Babes in Toyland, Weezer, Monster Magnet, Paw etc there in my youth...it's now a strip club.

But of course nothing ever happens in Perth...

 

[Shane Hird]

Holy ####ing sh#t!!

A decent band coming to Perth..??!!

Can't wait.

 

[vealesy]

Ffs finally.

Been a massive fan for 15 years now. Never seen them.

I liked the latest albums too.

Haters gunna hate, but if rivers released an album of himself farting on a snare drum, i would still like and buy it.

The man is a genius, his old fans will always love the first two albums, and surely the latest ones have pulled in new kiddy fans.

The shows will have interesting crowds, thats a guarantee.

 

[JimDocker]

Will definitely be there. A bonus that it is at the new stadium, which I really like by the way.

Put the Blue album in my car this morning to get me in the mood.

 

[vealesy]

My blue album cd is stuck in a car stereo system that i fried.

Never threw it out.

Too much sentimental value.

[Silent Alarm]

Anyone reckon they're a chance to sell it out? I personally can't see it happening. I reckon 8,000 is likely, 11,000 at the very most.

It'll definitely sell out. Weezer soundtracked a LOT of teenagers back in the day, who would all love the change to see them (most likely for the first time).

 

[mansize rooster]

weezer fanbase in australia is pretty strong. i think they will sell them out. i hope so, i want a pinkerton show

 

[La Dispute]

I'm hoping they sell out two times over.

I'd love a Raditude show

I'd love a Raditude show

With a Make Believe encore.

 

[Golden Slumbers]

i want a red album show

 

[vealesy]

Lets be honest, a weezer festival would sell out.

All albums back to back.

 

[Braddock]

Where's the best tickets at the music bowl? Generally I like to stand, but I know the Music Bowl is configured differently with the standing section behind the seats. Any help would be appreciated!

Also has anyone actually got an e-mail from the mailing list regarding the pre-sale details? 'Cause I haven't...

 

[Silent Alarm]

On the Weezer forum, most people are going for the seats at the front. General consensus is that most people do, and will, stand, with plenty of people standing right at the front of the stage.

 

[MC Bad Genius]

I got an email from the promoter about presales. I'm pretty sure it starts tonight but I'll double check.

 

[rhinowce]

Scored my tickets today, cant wait.

 

[Silent Alarm]

Just bought two tickets in the pit. I never thought I'd end up saying that. This is going to be so good.

(But it cost me $16 to use my card. Jesus.)

 

[vealesy]

Oh ffs forgot to sign up.
