Weezer

Sat., April 30

THE LOWDOWN The favorites of college kids everywhere (based on their hook-laden guitar pop and geek-chic aesthetic) return with a fifth album, Make Believe, on May 10.

WHAT WE HOPE THEY'LL PLAY It's unlikely that they'll perform ''El Scorcho,'' given Rivers Cuomo's disappointment with the critical response for Pinkerton and the fact that they played it the last time they toured. But c'mon, it's unfair to deny this collegiate crowd the chance to hear a song about a geek trying to get with a cool girl by offering her Green Day tickets!

IF YOU CAN'T MAKE IT TO COACHELLA... The boys are doing a few dates across the Northern U.S. before heading over to Europe for a small tour. (Get tour details on their official site)
