"The World Has Turned," and left us here: 30 years after Weezer released its debut self-titled album on May 10, 1994, the rockers are headlining a Blue Album-inspired tour with a concert lineup that previously seemed "Only in Dreams."
Rivers Cuomo, Brian Bell, Patrick Wilson and Scott Shriner will bring their "Voyage to the Blue Planet" tour across "Surf Wax America" in September and October 2024, the band announced Monday. Art rockers The Flaming Lips and alt-rock icons Dinosaur Jr. open the shows, which include a stop at Philadelphia's Wells Fargo Center.
"After teasing upcoming live shows on social media, Weezer are thrilled to officially announce an extensive North American tour in celebration of the 30th anniversary of their career-defining, self-titled debut Weezer, also known as the ‘Blue Album,’" Live Nation said. "They will play Weezer (the Blue Album) in full along with other fan favorites, rarities and more."
