Matt Sharp was one of many who attended this show, and was photographed backstage with the rest of Weezer.

On March 19, 1992 at Raji’s on Hollywood Blvd, weezer played our first show, “opening” for a another new band called Dogstar - Keanu Reeves’ band. It was also Dogstar’s first show! We say “opening” because we begged Raji’s for a slot - any slot - at any time, and got offered this, the “closing” spot, after Dogstar’s set. Dying to get on stage, we took the slot! Of course it was packed for Dogstar, because Keanu’s star was already burning bright in 1992 and people were naturally curious. For weezer...? Not so much. All but about 15-20 of our friends ghosted as soon as Dogstar left the room, so only a few got to watch the nearly amorphous still-forming weez, including Rivers, eyes perpetually closed, falling off the stage mid-guitar solo more than once!

Nearly 30 years to the date later, weezer has now had the pleasure of playing with Dogstar again, this time at the Lodge Room in Highland Park. Of course, just like last time, weezer played last - but this time, more people stuck around to check it out! A lucky few hundred peeps got a taste of our Voyage To The Blue Planet Tour, coming this fall. Thank you so much @dogstarband! Its SO cool you and we are both still rocking, and got to rock together!
