I could watch this to the end of time! This is my theme song while I fight cancer.

Kick cancers ass bro

Heaven can wait, man. It's time for you to go back to the good life.

[@therealslimsaiyan]

The crowd singing along warms my damn heart

[@jumpinjohnnyruss]

Singing along is for the car ride, not for drowning out a live performance.

watching this now what a big coincidence that he was wearing a teal shirt and a black jacket...

[@beastmonsterthing3]

the utter shock on his face at 2:38 lolol

[@_galacticfates]

3:36 Rivers here sounded exactly like he did in 1996. Thank you so much for recording this! This must've been so cool to see in person.

[@rickweezer]

IT'S TIME I GOT BACK TO THE GOOD LIFE. This crowd is SICK! SO GOOD!

[@hfl_]

Whoever said "come on" at 3:06 doesn't understand how hard it is to play an electric song with an acoustic.

[@SprinkleB0mb]

The guy who said "come on" should jump off a cliff

[@annafontenot997]

For real...

[@spy4746]

Why is it hard ? Acoustic is heavier than electric guitar?

[@Dogguy960]

@@spy4746 songs written for electric guitars don’t always translate smoothly to acoustic

[@superfzzbigmuff7375]

@@spy4746 a multitude of reasons really 1) full band arrangements are hard to strip down to just guitar and voice 2) it’s much more difficult to access to higher frets on an acoustic because of the shape of the body 3) acoustics have significantly more tension on the strings than electrics, making bends much harder to perform on acoustic

[@strangevegetable2651]

I jam off to this in my own bedroom as if I were there. The atmosphere, the vocals, the guitar, the emotion. It’s incredible

[@pigseye2]

This is just amazing. Rivers is just killing it on this song and the audience singing along makes it even better. Rivers seems so genuinely Happy? Delighted? Ecstatic? I can't find the right word, maybe even Proud? I would have loved to have been there. But I get to see Weezer in September and I am stoked so no complaints.

[@boybolt707]

Not gonna lie this is my favorite ROCK band

[@colton8331]

They're neck and neck with the Beatles for me.

The song that introduced me to Weezer. Very good indeed.

the singing crowd was so loud ! proud of you guys

[@oceanpie3739]

I wish he invited Matt Sharp 😭😭😭😭

[@KrikZ32]

I'd give up on it bud. It's almost been 20 years.

[@YakuLin]

I always have a feeling that they just feel neutral with each other. They don't even follow each other on Instagram LOL

[@LiamTolentino]

[@kristupas8667]

Matt is a fucking asshole you gotta admit that

[@eloisapantazis6232]

Well he invited Jason Cropper 😊

[@jefflikeusual20]

That was just absolutely amazing! Great crowd too!

[@JKSonic]

How in the world don't the videos from this concert have more views/likes...these are amazing. He's on point, crowd is on point...absolutely amazing.

[@garylowzik9187]

Outstanding participation especially when the fans came in and took over the end of the solo. 🥹 Bravo .

[@kazitoshi]

Thanks for this entire playlist! What a gig.

[@alvadrive82]

Holy crap that was so good! the audience singing along was perfect

[@noobnesz]

such a heartbreaking song but you can dance to it

[@AlanStryman]

"Shakin booty makin' sweet love all the night" Still makes me smile till today.

[@YankeeWoodcraft]

Best back up crowd ever! 😆

[@josgor9061]

He seemed emotional when the crowd started singing.

[@weird0s]

When I look in the mirror I can't believe what I see Tell me, who's that funky dude Staring back at me Broken, beaten down Can't even get around Without an old-man cane I fall and hit the ground Shivering in the cold I'm bitter and alone Excuse the bitching I shouldn't complain I should have no feeling Cos feeling is pain As everything I need Is denied me And everything I want Is taken away from me But who do I got to blame? Nobody but me And I don't wanna be an old man anymore It's been a year or two since I was out on the floor Shaking booty, making sweet love all the night It's time I got back to the good life It's time I got back, it's time I got back And I don't even know how I got off the track I wanna go back, yeah! Screw this crap, I've had it! I ain't no Mr. Cool I'm a pig, I'm a dog So excuse me if I drool I ain't gonna hurt nobody Ain't gonna cause a scene Just need to admit That I want sugar in my tea Hear me (hear me) I want sugar in my tea! I don't wanna be an old man anymore It's been a year or two since I was out on the floor Shaking booty, making sweet love all the night It's time I got back to the good life It's time I got back, it's time I got back And I don't even know how I got off the track I wanna go back, yeah! I wanna go back, I wanna go back And I don't even know how I got off the track It's time I got back, it's time I got back And I don't even know how I got off the track I wanna go back, yeah! And I don't wanna be an old man anymore It's been a year or two since I was out on the floor Shaking booty, making sweet love all the night It's time I got back to the good life It's time I got back, it's time I got back And I don't even know how I got off the track It's time I got back, it's time I got back And I don't even know how I got off the track I wanna go back (I wanna go back)

What I would’ve given to be here

[@scottmeixel4291]

is he just playing power chords on an acoustic??

[@NoLightOnlyHope]

Scott Meixel Some are power chords, some are regular chords. Obviously, power chords dont sound quite as good on an acoustic but it's how the song was written and he kept to the original arrangement for an acouatic performance. He could have worked out a proper arrangement for acoustic so it would sound all pretty n stuff but theres no point really and this performance shows just how cool his chord progressions actually are when theres no bass, drums etc.

[@scottmeixel4291]

Blair Witch Yea, I was more thinking about how I could get away with the power chords when playing this... and you're right on with the progression

[@NoLightOnlyHope]

Scott Meixel You could get away with it if you wrote it yourself, and were Rivers 😉

[@scottmeixel4291]

Blair Witch Hah, probably the most fair KZbin comment I've seen

[@NoLightOnlyHope]

Scott Meixel 🤘🏼

[@louis1372]

Can someone direct me to a tutorial/ tabs of the Solo + Humming part at 2:34 ?

[@garylowzik9187]

Its hard to find it written correctly. There are Two different lead guitar parts and a rhythm guitar part, intertwined with vocal harmonization and a xylophone all coming together from several different directions. You need a tight group of musicians to really nail it. Otherwise I would suggest following the xylophone part on a single guitar.
