Fan recollection

Weezer Fan Club members Sara and Carrie wrote about the concert in issue 4 of Weezine:

They opened up with No One Else and closed with Buddy Holly. In between they sang every song on the album as well as Jamie and a new song. We got a lot of weird looks for knowing all the lyrics to Jamie. Say It Ain't So was by far the most popular. Everybody was singing along with the band and going completely insane. During Weezer we were hosed down, because it was like 98 degrees outside, and Brian made the fat security guards move the barricades up closer to the stage. Everyone went crowd surfing (including us) and there were a lot of mosh pits (3 at last count). We came home with a lot of bruises but we LOVED it!!

—Sara and Carrie, Weezine Issue 4 - Fall 1995
