Rivers Cuomo played an almost two hour acoustic show at The Hi Hat in Los Angeles on Saturday, March 10th.

The set naturally included lots of Weezer songs plus a few classic covers (check out the video below!).

The Weezer frontman opened with R.E.M.’s ‘Losing My Religion‘ immediately followed by, the Smashing Pumpkins’ ‘Today.’

Later in the set, he played the Oasis classic ‘Champagne Supernova,’ and he ended things with Pixies’ ever popular ‘Where Is My Mind?’ The main stay of the performance was tunes from throughout Weezer’s entire 25 year discography.
