Weezer live performing 'My Name is Jonas' at Xcel Center

Venue: Xcel Energy Center Location: St. Paul, Minnesota, United States Date: October 3, 2008

On October 3, 2008, Weezer performed at the Xcel Energy Center in St. Paul, Minnesota, during their tour supporting the album "Weezer" (commonly referred to as the "Red Album"), which had been released earlier that year. This album marked a significant moment in the band's career as it showcased a more collaborative songwriting approach, with all four members contributing to the lyrics and music. The live rendition of "My Name is Jonas" highlights the band's ability to connect with their audience, combining nostalgia with their characteristic pop-rock sound. Interestingly, Tom DeLonge, from Blink-182, was part of this performance, which heightened the excitement for fans of both bands. This era was crucial for Weezer as they were stepping into a new phase of experimentation while maintaining their loyal fanbase.
