Date: September 9th, 2024 10:27 AM Author: Fragrant nubile brunch also, if the flaming lips (who are opening, along with dinosaur jr) don't play "she don't use jelly" i'll be sorely disappointed (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5591263&forum_id=2/#48065745) |

Date: September 9th, 2024 10:27 AM Author: disgusting indian lodge circlehead i saw them recently and they played all the hits. it was 180. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5591263&forum_id=2/#48065751) |

Date: September 9th, 2024 10:28 AM Author: Slate property goyim wtf thats an amazing show.
i saw weezer like 8 years back and they were playing all their "new" stuff (i.e. post pinkerton) and it was awful |

Date: September 9th, 2024 10:31 AM Author: disgusting indian lodge circlehead maladroit was good! everything post that is almost like they're doing a bit. pork and beans, beverely hills, etc.... it's like they're youtube celebrities.
i did like teal album though. but it was still just more of them doing some sort of bit. |

Date: September 9th, 2024 10:33 AM Author: learning disabled faggotry imo everything after pinkerton is garbage. i remember being excited for the green album and it came out and i was like...hmm, i dunno yeah i like this! then whatever they put out after that was trash, and it got worse from there. in going back and reviewing their catalog i have concluded that blue album and pinkerton were wonderful and they went to shit after that. they never should have gotten back together.

Date: September 9th, 2024 10:37 AM Author: disgusting indian lodge circlehead i wore the FUCK out of the green album and maladroit. although i concede that my love of them is mostly nostalgia as they came out during my formative years, and when i listen to weezer today it's typically blue album and pinkerton.

Date: September 9th, 2024 10:45 AM Author: learning disabled faggotry i forcememed green album on myself bc the first two were so good. i remember being at a friend's house watching them on SNL playing hash pipe, going FUCK YA THIS RULES.
but in retrospect it's just bland radio bullshit.
i do not blame them for getting back together. they'd each be worth like $2-5m right now, and instead they are worth like $50m+ i am sure. |

Date: September 9th, 2024 10:46 AM Author: disgusting indian lodge circlehead i blame the critics for panning pinkerton and setting rivers on a course of pop radio bullshit and never baring his soul again. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5591263&forum_id=2/#48065859) |

Date: September 9th, 2024 10:54 AM Author: Electric Yellow Mental Disorder it's on him at this point. he's got more than enough money to do whatever the fuck he wants yet he keeps on playing the nerd clown.
also at this point he's gotten tons of validation on pinkerton so who cares about the critics. |
|
Date: September 9th, 2024 10:55 AM Author: learning disabled faggotry so this is fair too. i think he's obsessed with the fame. it cannot be the money. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5591263&forum_id=2/#48065908) |

Date: September 9th, 2024 10:57 AM Author: disgusting indian lodge circlehead sure, i mean ultimately everyone's decisions are their own. but i do think he would have been more apt to put out more pinkerton stuff if it wasn't trashed.
but yeah it's disappointing to see them leaning hard into the nerd clown shit, especially since their genesis is indie nerd vaguely anti-corporate shit. but they've been doing this for over two decades now, so i've accepted it. |
|
Date: September 9th, 2024 11:08 AM Author: Electric Yellow Mental Disorder i think like most nerds he really just wanted to be popular. he tried hair metal, then he went grunge, then he went pop. he was never really a dedicated artistic vision guy.
you'd think he'd at least some freaky side project but i guess he's too busy fucking asian girls. |
|
Date: September 9th, 2024 11:14 AM Author: disgusting indian lodge circlehead cr. i want to believe he's a sincere arty type based the early albums + the h-bomb. but like many in that crowd he turned out to ultimately be driven by fame instead of artistry.
that's kind of what i mean with the pinkerton shit. it's a gut-wrenching album that put all his bullshit on full display. it's understandable that he would retreat into facile pop stardom after how badly the album was trashed. he himself said he couldn't listen to it for years, was a constantly embarrassment, and he only began to appreciate it years later. |

Date: September 9th, 2024 11:20 AM Author: Electric Yellow Mental Disorder and now it's canon, but he's living way too well to do anything like it again. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5591263&forum_id=2/#48066034) |

Date: September 9th, 2024 11:43 AM Author: Electric Yellow Mental Disorder yeah but you know what, good for him. he gave us one great miserable record and that's a lot more than most people. i'm glad he's not still chasing the misery to stay edgy. his life must be ridiculously comfortable and frivolous, which is reflected in his music. he's giving us his truth.

|
Date: September 9th, 2024 12:02 PM Author: disgusting indian lodge circlehead that's a great point. continuing with angsty nerd naval-gazing would actually be less authentic than what he's doing now. he's basically like a middle-aged dude playing cover songs at the bar on the weekends with bros, but for millions of dollars in front of crowds of people. that's not so bad.

Date: September 9th, 2024 10:55 AM Author: learning disabled faggotry 100%. blue album was really good but pinkerton was a masterpiece. everything after that is just so bad.

just a series of dumb ass ironic jokes and bullshit music. |

Date: September 9th, 2024 10:29 AM Author: learning disabled faggotry i would have gone to this but it was like $200, which LJL no.
flaming lips used to be cool but they blow now.
dino jr is awesome tho and they rule live |
|
Date: September 9th, 2024 10:30 AM Author: Fragrant nubile brunch yeah it was $400 for 2 tix but what else am i going to spent money on (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5591263&forum_id=2/#48065767) |
|
Date: September 9th, 2024 10:34 AM Author: learning disabled faggotry not hating by any means, i did think about it. but i coulda seen weezer for like $25 back in the day (but didn't), and can see dino anytime for about that much. and i saw flaming lips when they were good (2002-2003 - and i saw them in 2012 and they were trash, good god). so on balance, my life is in balance.

Date: September 9th, 2024 10:39 AM Author: disgusting indian lodge circlehead i've seen them a few times. they're pretty meh. rivers as a "front man" is basically a meme. it's ridiculous to see this now-aged nerd rocker singing about drugs and sex.
still, blue album is and will always be 180. |

Date: September 9th, 2024 10:43 AM Author: learning disabled faggotry back in 1997 i was friends with some doods from irvine. this guy we called rock n roll johnny and who looked like matt sharp and/or elvis costello (we were in a dennys in laurel, md, and a girl came up to him and asked if he was either of those guys) had this asian gf back in like 95, who was definitely underage. rivers fucked her.

Date: September 9th, 2024 10:45 AM Author: disgusting indian lodge circlehead "across the sea" is literally rivers pining over some "18 year old" penpal in japan. anyone that listens to pinkerton and thinks rivers wasn't plowing underage gook gash by the barrel in 1996 is a retard.

Date: September 9th, 2024 1:28 PM Author: comical ladyboy Dunno why this guy said it in past tense because the tour starts in a couple weeks
It sold out tho and tickets are pricey secondhand, at least near me |

Date: September 13th, 2024 11:18 AM Author: Fratty update:
fun show. got there a little late so missed dinosaur jr, and only caught about 2/3 of the flaming lips set. the crowd was (not unsurprisingly) mostly 40 and 50yo dudes. they played 5 tracks from pinkerton which was pretty SWeet, and obviously the whole blue album from start to finish. there was a video playing in the background which accompanied the whole thing but it was pretty lame. overall, it made me feel happy but old. also there was no encore.
