Weezer

In July 2011, when Weezer performed 'The Good Life' at the O2 Academy Brixton, they were in an intriguing phase of their career. This live recording took place after the release of their album 'Hurley,' which came out in 2010. 'Hurley' showcased a blend of alternative rock sounds and featured a more upbeat vibe compared to some of their earlier, angst-driven work. The performance at Brixton, a historic venue known for its vibrant atmosphere, highlighted the band's evolution while still connecting with their long-time fans. Fun fact: the album cover features a photo of Jorge Garcia, famously known as Hurley from 'Lost,' reflecting Weezer's quirky sense of humor. This live gig not only captured the energy of their set but solidified Weezer's presence in the alt-rock scene during that period.
