Weezer‘s ongoing tour in support of their new album Everything Will Be Alright in the End hit NYC last night (10/27) for a very small (for them) and very sold out show at Bowery Ballroom. Like at other shows on the tour, they opened with an acoustic set pulling heavily from the Blue/Pinkerton era with “You Gave Your Love to Me Softly,” “Why Bother?,” “El Scorcho,” “The Good Life,” “No One Else,” “Buddy Holly” and more. Then the full electric band took the stage to perform the new album in full. During that they were joined by MS MR singer Lizzy Plapinger for “Go Away” (it was Bethany from Best Coast on the album and Frances from Hop Along in Philly), a choir, and had a confetti-filled ending. They returned for a one-song encore of Pinkerton‘s fiery opener “Tired of Sex.”
