LA rock favorites Weezer have announced a lengthy North American tour in celebration of the 30th anniversary of their self-titled debut album ‘Weezer’ (also known as the ‘Blue Album’). The band will perform their ‘Blue Album’ in full along with other popular songs, rarities and more. Produced by Live Nation and dubbed ‘Voyage to the Blue Planet,’ the September and October run will see the band joined by The Flaming Lips and Dinosaur JR.
Here’s more info from Live Nation:
“Separate from their tour, the band also announces a special anniversary event on March 15th at the Lodge Room in Los Angeles with Dogstar as support. This exciting full-circle moment mirrors the band’s March 1992 show at Raji’s where they ended up opening for Dogstar in an unlikely turn of events. The name “Weezer” was coined in a conversation with the show’s booker (read more via Weezerpedia HERE). They will be playing Weezer (the Blue Album) front to back alongside some very special guests.
An instantly recognizable cultural touchstone of the 1990s, Weezer (the Blue Album) has garnered such a firm place in the musical pantheon of the last three decades that it serves as an entry point into music for nascent listeners. A testament to the band’s staying power, tracks like “Buddy Holly” and “Say It Ain’t So” have earned hundreds of millions of streams and endless placements in TV shows and movies.
The run of dates kicks off in Saint Paul, Minnesota at the Xcel Energy Center on September 4th before traveling to major cities including Toronto, Boston, New York, Nashville, and Washington, D.C. to name a few. It wraps with an epic finale in Los Angeles, where the group first got their start, with a show on October 11th in Inglewood, CA at the Intuit Dome.”
