Weezer Covering Radiohead's Paranoid Android Live in Pittsburgh

Venue: Masonic Auditorium Location: San Francisco, California, United States Date: November 30, 2010

In November 2010, Weezer delivered an electrifying performance at the Masonic Auditorium in San Francisco, showcasing their cover of Radiohead's haunting masterpiece, 'Paranoid Android.' At this time, Weezer had just released their album 'Hurley' in September 2010. This album marked a return to their rock roots after a series of mixed reviews for previous projects, rallying long-time fans with its catchy riffs and emotional depth. Interestingly, the choice to cover a song from Radiohead—often considered more experimental—shows Weezer's willingness to blend different musical influences, creating a fresh spin on their established sound. It also reflects their playful confidence as a band, mingling pop culture with deep-rooted artistry, which makes this live recording not just a concert moment but a significant point in their ongoing evolution.
