Weezer Launch Retro Blinkerton Tour (Blue Album + Pinkerton)

Double Yes.

Weezer’s only two albums that matter, the Blue album and Pinkerton, are getting  justly deserved attention from the band, as they have plans to launch a tour this Winter in which they will play both albums back to back.

Sadly though, each album will be performed on a different night.

From the band:

“This winter (November/December), Weezer will launch a multi-city U.S. tour, dubbed by fans as the ‘Blinkerton Tour.’ The band will play two shows in each market — on the first night Weezer will play the Blue Album in its entirety, and the second night they will play Pinkerton in its entirety.”

These albums were made before Matt Sharp left to form The Rentals, and I think he really balanced out the band. Kept Cuomo in check, you know before he got into Monastaries, Abstinence and Music Theory classes.

Me, I’m gonna call up Jonas and give myself Holiday for this one, I’d even sail Across the Sea if I had to, because this is the only chance you’ll get to see the band performing their 20 songs that don’t El Sucko.

Well Hash Pipe was pretty good.

On a side note, this exists:
