the garage, london - england

the show at the garage, in london, england is interesting for a few reasons. karl remarks "the garage was insane...on the verge of technical disaster at all times...longest set ever?.... 2 song encore! (a first?)..." the band also whipped out what appeared to be a spontaneous 15 second cover of old school metal rockster's iron maiden. apparently the crowd got really excited because after the cover according to the band "too many of you people know that song...its a bad thing really." as thet set continued several weezer-rabid fans kept yelling "jamie! jah-mie! jay-mee!" so the band finally complied with playing jamie along with tired of sex as encores. this was the firstshow from the pinkerton tour to have known to be bootlegged by an audience member and widely circulated (although poor quality).
