Weezer Show
Just got back from a great rock show out in Kansas. Weezer headlined... and did so WELL! It was 1994 when Weezer burst on the scene with classics like "In the Garage," "Say it Ain't So," "Undone" and one of my personal favorites "Surf Wax America." Their show was one long parade of great songs old and new that have been the soundtrack of my growing up.
Opening up the bigger bands of the night was Story of the Year, who I saw last summer for the first time with my cousin Chad. SotY is a hard rockin' band out of St. Louis, MO and they rocked out to some of their more popular tunes, "Anthem of our Dying Day" and "Unti the Day I Die," but also added a nice meaty edge to "Sweet Home [Kansas City]," "Wayward Son" among a few other classics. After SotY rocked the crowd the unique band known as Cake took the stage. Talk about fond High School memories... their album Fashion Nugget truly was the soundtrack to my last two years of High School. I think I weireded out Kara a bit with my outstanding lyric knowledge of their material.
The whole show went down a little bit west of Kansas City, KS in the new Verizon Wireless Amipatheater.
It was a wonderful warm day and perfect evening to sit outside on blankets with a few thousand other people, smell some second hand pot and just enjoy a concert with the coolest girl around. What a great time.Current Music: My Name is Jonas - Weezer

Since no one else is commenting on what was CLEARLY such an amazing show ... I will. I was there and I'm assuming that everyone else is just JEALOUS. ;) And who better to sing out all of Weezer's "oooh wee ooohs" and "tra la las" with than my favorite Charlie!
