I saw them again at the E Center in 2001, and it was a completely different experience.<br><br>It wasn't so much that the band put on a bad show. They did fine, except that was when Rivers was still trying to pretend that the Pinkerton album never existed. The problem was that I was one of only a handful of people there that were even old enough to remember Weezer's first album. Everyone else in the arena looked like they were still in kindergarten when that first album came out. The crowd was completely unruly, pushing and shoving the whole time and eventually breaking down the barrier separating the reserved section from general admission. That crowd really ruined the show for me. I can honestly say that that Weezer concert was the first time in my life that I felt truly <i>old</i>.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2197216990634719175.post-72933598630867310512008-10-08T08:46:00.000-07:002008-10-08T08:46:00.000-07:00I felt the same way last night.

There were alot of single kids all around me in GA and a few instances of moshing which was annoying cause it detracted from the performance and disconcerting when they're actually trying to hurt people. <br><br>But it wasn't happening more than about 10 minutes throughout the whole show, so I didn't let it bug me. They had a couple security guys out in the crowd to stop that crap from happening.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2197216990634719175.post-33351847177811747592008-10-08T09:06:00.000-07:002008-10-08T09:06:00.000-07:00Gord,I am totally jealous, wish we could have gone...Gord,<br>I am totally jealous, wish we could have gone to the concert with you.
