10/05/08 Troublemaker Tour Show 14: Denver - Broomfield Events Center

Weezer 10/05/08 Troublemaker Tour Show 14: Denver - Broomfield Events Center

After a day for much travel from the heart of the midwest to the Rocky Mountain High land, we got down to the business of troublemaking again in Denver - or rather, way out in the apparently brand new suburb of Broomfield. Tonights show was a bit of a challenge due to a heavy bout of congestion that Rivers had to plow thru to sing. Somehow he did it, though I have no idea how - I chalk it up to pure determination to rock under any circumstances! As has been the case so far, we had another spirited crop of Hootenany folk up on stage tonight, and the temporarily expanded weezer got the whole arena to sing along at the top of their lungs.

Here are some pix from tonight's show (click on them to see them bigger)




RIVERS NEEDS YOUR STICKERS! Rivers needs to decorate his drum kit (the one on the side of the stage, not Pat's in the middle), and he wants stickers to do it. Years ago, you served my father in the Clone Wars; now - er, wait - I mean, years ago, Rivers asked for stickers for his guitar, and hundreds of you tossed envelopes loaded with crazy stickers onstage for days - his Stratocasters were quickly plastered! Can we count on you guys to come thru again? However you can get them to us works - if you see me, pass em over - if youre close to the stage, toss em up! Just write "Stickers for Rivers" on the envelope! Thanks people!

10/03/08 Troublemaker Tour Show 13: St Paul - Xcel Energy Center

Weezer 10/03/08 Troublemaker Tour Show 13: St Paul - Xcel Energy Center

The Troublemaker Train arrived in the land of Charles Schulz ready to lay down the kind of show ol' Charlie probably wouldnt have liked too much, i.e. loud, wild, sweaty... all the essential ingredients of rocking out the way the Twin Cities do. The Xcel Energy Center has surely hosted some Snoopy On Ice-capades in the past. Snoopy On Ice is possibly the total opposite of a weezer show, although both surely stoke their audiences. Well, Snoopy is awesome, but I'm pretty sure he never had the nonstop crowdsurfing going on that Weezer had tonight!

Hey by the way, I didnt mean to imply Chicago wasnt all that and a bag of chips, because it was. Somehow I guess I was expecting two bags of chips, like at Subway when you get the extra value meal and run out of chips before you've finished your sub. Well, it happens to me sometimes anyway.

10/02/08 Troublemaker Tour Show 12: Chicago - Allstate Arena

Weezer 10/02/08 Troublemaker Tour Show 12: Chicago - Allstate Arena

Back to sweet home Chicago! Tonights show at the O'Hare adjacent Allstate Arena was big rock as expected, though the vibe in the room felt a bit subdued for some odd reason. No real crowdsurfing going on, though the peeps were indeed loud! One never can tell how it's going to feel untill the lights and the gear is set up and the people are let in. The band delivered and the crowd cheered and sang along, though I couldnt help but feeling that Chicago wasnt quite the same as the last time through. Perhaps the Sox/Cubs matchup had people a bit distracted. Who knows, maybe it was just me? Oh wait, I know - it was the absence of Anuj, original Weezer.net webmaster (1995-1999) - usually he makes it to every Chicago area show, but was not able to make it down tonight. I'm tellin' ya, it had an effect! Anuj - missed ya buddy!

Also - to the post show Chi-town parking lot peeps - meant to chill with ya a bit, but somehow you dudes vanished by the time I got back outside?! Sorry about the delay.
