Weezer

By the end of August 2000, Weezer was right in the thick of promoting their album 'Pinkerton', which had been released in September 1996 but gained a cult following over the years. During this era, they were building momentum again, stemming from the initial success and the mixed reviews that 'Pinkerton' received. The concert at the 9:30 Club in Washington captures the band’s raw energy as they performed classics like 'My Name is Jonas' and 'El Scorcho,' diving deep into their distinct sound that's a fusion of rock and heartfelt lyrics. Fun fact: the band had faced some ups and downs post-'Pinkerton,' but this live performance reflects their resilience and dedication, showing fans what had them believing in Weezer once again. The intimacy of the 9:30 Club venue would’ve made for a memorable experience for both the band and their audience.
