    Seeing them at Rough Trade today. 300 people tops!

    Should be awesome!

    OMG YOU GOT IN?!
    We got there at ten and figured the line was too long so we left. Going to the Bowie tribute instead.

    Website pre order for this LP was a shambles. I ordered before the tri colored sold out message appeared then they emailed to say I would get the not so limited white vinyl. Someone managed to get at least three copies though because they are all on eBay.

    Not only did I get in but I got a setlist and got it signed!!!

    If you arrived at 10 you would have made it in! Maybe 300 in there?

    Scott Shiner the bassist came out to say hello to the fans waiting to get into the show. What was wild is that he walked by and quite a few people had no idea who he was. He walked up to me and said "thanks for coming out" I shook his hand and thanked him for coming out to say hello.

    They did shuffle us rather quickly through the line to get our items signed. That was the only bad part of everything.

    Cool experience for me no matter what.

    That's awesome Chris, how many songs did they play? Or how long did they play?
    I went to the Bowie tribute at Radio City so I'm not really too bummed about missing Weezer, hope to catch them next time they're in town.

    I liked the album a lot. Wind in My Sail is probably my fav track off the album. Only listened to it once though.

    Just received my "off-white" :smiley: album, I'm really loving it! On my 2nd listen.

    Really enjoying this album on Spotify at the moment. 3rd best Weezer album? Probably. Very glad they never split. I cancelled my vinyl order because shipping to the UK for white was just too much. LP can be picked up in the UK quite cheap, shame it's just black but think I'm going to spin this a lot anyway. The EU pressing was probably fewer than the 4000.

    I guess technically they never split, but there was an extended hiatus after Pinkerton because Rivers attended Harvard (and he was also a bit pissed at the reaction to Pinkerton, it did not sell well and was not regarded at the time as the classic that it is now).

    Not as good as their last one which was their best since Maladroit but still way better than Raditude and Hurley.

    Only 4 songs. The set list had 5 listed.

    They played Californis Kids, LA Girlz, Slave and King of the world. They had Do you wanna get high but didn't play that.

    Still a cool intimate experience.

    I'm unable to post pics but if someone wants to post them I'll send some to you.

    Plus you got the Vinyl & got it signed I'm assuming so it sounds like an awesome day overall.

    Only one piece to get signed so I chose the setlist instead.
