god damn right he did. the album wouldn't have sounded the same without him

[@Fakename70]

He totally wasn’t expecting it

[@John6-40]

Back in 1998, my girlfriend said this was my theme song. I loved Weezer, I was 17 and lived in my parent's garage, playing guitar all the time. And I've always been a sarcastic recluse, kinda like Rivers.

Jason is criminally underrated as a singer. His harmonies are perfect

[@DirtyStreetRecords]

its heartbraking that Jason didn't get to take the ride because he got that girl pregnant and didn't know how to handle it.

[@DirtyStreetRecords]

Jason should be back in the band by now.

[@harlanthater]

Rivers kicked him out after his girlfriend got pregnant

[@ObiWanKenobi]

Harlan Thater also Rivers kicked him while out while recording the Blue Album because he didn’t like Jason’s recordings and decided to re record all of his parts himself.

[@Skywohka]

@@ObiWanKenobi Wait, is the really what happened? I haven't read much into Jason's reasons for leaving the band

[@Skywohka]

Pinkerton wouldn't have happened. Happy with how history worked until now, but I think it's time he joins Weezer again.

[@GozerTheGozerian]

Jason Cropper's band, Chopper One, had some great tunes, most notably "Touch My Fuzz." I highly recommend checking it out.

[@michaelmcgovern9881]

Loved this song as a kid, never thought I’d end up living in the garage. Hits harder listening to this now coming up on my 21st

[@where7847]

its seems jason was the inspiration for matts harmonies

[@ShiroiNihonjin]

He's singing all Brian's parts in this set. Or rather, when Brian joined the band, he had to learn all Jason's parts.

[@SeanBialo]

actually i think he was at a pretty good volume, it's just that the crowd was all singing the main line so he got drowned out haha

[@rickweezer]

and this is history, guys.

[@jamesmcmanus310]

The look at 4:58. You can TELL they’re enjoying it 🙌🏼

Wow..... Jason sounds awesome & natural with Rivers on these two songs. Not to mention the fun & charisma they both brought. Very organic...great moment captured for the books. No agenda, just two guys killing it. undeniable good vibes.

Greatest singalong band of our generation. Very few bands have fans that sing along with every word, with the same or more passion and soul than the lead singer. Awesome moment- Jason enjoyed himself

[@florisbackx1744]

This has more Weezer vibes than any of the Full band shows in the last 15 years. Very nostalgic indeed, just so heartwarming :) The chemistry between then is amazing both personally as musically, their voice blend so well! They should write and record a new acoustic album together ❤❤❤❤

That has to be a great feeling for a musician- to have people at your shows singing along with every word- not just with the big hits but with the deeper tracks that were never released as singles.

[@ricktherrien8235]

What an awesome video. The energy in that room must have been great, go Rivers your an icon.

[@johnathom-v3y]

During that tour when rivers didn’t want to play the guitar they should’ve just had jason come out and play guitar instead of having pat play and some other guy play drums.

[@NostalgiaCassetteCity]

That's an amazing idea! Maybe for Blues 30th they could get Jason to come tour with them

[@gav6189]

Bro they should've.

[@Thejackranger]

for real!

[@souvlaki9951]

yeah that was weird. maybe pat did want to just really play guitar and pushed for it? also during memories tour it would have been cool if they gave Jason a spot to at least appear during the encore during the songs he actually appeared on so he got a taste of the big stage. oh well. Jason is still awesome!

[@dreamcoma2213]

If you guys like Jason Cropper, you should check out his band with his wife called Chopper One. They had a really catch song in the 90's called Touch my Fuzz.

[@Pannemat]

2:40, Jonas ...

[@theenigmatik8294]

The Blue is not only the best Weezer but one of the absolutely best of the 90’s. Words can’t really give justice to or explain how magnificent it really is and was when this record dropped. Let’s just say there is No one Nobody boppin around right now in 2020, that is doing anything remotely this good. And that includes current Weezer. We’re in a different time now when people are stripping our culture away and all the things that make us all as a collective band together and create soul soothing, fundamentally amazing music that can elevate us to limitless potential. What is your thought. Like for instance do you remember the last clothing trend that took the country by storm? And wasn’t just copied or bitten style from decades past! Our love and grasp on culture has been slowly beaten down, until eventually everything is CANCELLED and we have no funny movies no good music. And whoopsie Daisy, We have none left. Cause we’re way better thann this.

[@jonathanpejic2908]

[@francoaranda6499]

[@bmx3347]

Any Weezer nerds know why Jason left the band?

[@ericsemidey]

taken from his wikipedia page: "In a 2014 oral history of Weezer involving members of the band (including Cropper) and various associates, it was revealed that while recording their debut album in New York, Cropper learned that Amy Wellner, his girlfriend in Los Angeles, was pregnant. The ramifications of this news started affecting Cropper's personality and disrupting the band's working environment. When Wellner showed up unannounced in New York with no place to stay, Cuomo considered it the final straw and informed Cropper that he had to leave the band."

[@DaveThomson]

Because Rivers rerecorded all Jasons parts
