Teenage Dirtbag [HD], by Weezer (@ O2 Academy Brixton, 2011)

[@rvnender]

Everybody in the crowd was like "I fucking knew weezer sung this song!"

[@TheWickedlu]

rvnender Lol! That's so funny! I watched a top 10 video of songs that people give the wrong credit to, and this was in the list saying that Wheatus sang it and NOT Weezer....and then Weezer turns around and covers it! Lol

@@elizabethpalumbo6516 getting this notification after 6 years has been crazy. They are performing again and there are a ton of live videos of wheetus doing this song live and I fell down that rabbit hole. Like hard.

[@bsgfan1]

Fun fact: Weezer and Wheatus were aware that people kept mixing the bands and their songs up. So they decided to play a cover of each other’s song. Weezer played Teenage Dirtbag, and Wheatus covered My Name is Jonas

Frickin' Rivers, doing what he always does, climbing all over random parts of the stage- I remember seeing him live at Bumbershoot in Seattle a few years back, and he disappeared for a good five minutes, all the while still singing through a wireless mic, only to reappear behind the entire crowd at the far end of the stadium, all the way across from the rest of the band and the stage.

[@hamburgerdan101]

Jameson Doane lol wth😂 cool tho

[@haytakhaytak189]

He should just stick to Guitar

[@ippotsk]

Falling off the stage doesn't seem to scare him, even though it happened to Dave Grohl a few years later lol.

The Teal album is pretty much Rivers doing Karaoke, so I guess you can experience that now

[@DieAlteistwiederda]

I like how these two bands just decided to roll with the mix up and have fun with it. I never knew people mixed them up regularly until I talked about Weezer and almost everyone in the group of people I talked to thought I was talking about Wheatus. Definitely one way to find out about this.

[@tmorelli1982]

Anyone that mixed up wheatus and weezer, wasn't paying any attention to music.

[@brandonwenzel2844]

I wonder what prompted this cover? was it just Weezer playing to the fact that lot's of people attribute this song to them?

[@machinemaker12]

brandon wenzel According to Wikipedia: In 2011, Weezer performed a cover of "Teenage Dirtbag" on their festival tour and Wheatus responded by covering 'My Name is Jonas' on their 2011 tour. This came about after a Twitter conversation between the two bands regarding the common mistake of people thinking the song is in fact a Weezer song.

Hi - I am co-producing a documentary about the band Wheatus (Teenage Dirtbag) - I was wondering if we could use some of this clip for the film?

Hey there, sure you can! Thanks for asking. I would appreciate to be credited (Arjan van Geel / ihearttheweakerthans). And of course to hear when the doc is complete. Cheers from the Netherlands. -Arjan.
