Weezer recently covered Foster The People’s “Pumped Up Kicks” at their show at the Del Mar racetrack last week. It’s no surprise. The song has become a mega hit. Weezer are good enough musicians to pull this off effectively, even if Rivers has to read the lyrics from a sheet.

They did this at their Red Rock Vegas show on August 5th. We got there late and almost missed it. He was still reading it off of a sheet but it rocked none the less.
Not to mention River jumped in some pools crowd side a couple of times with fans joining in. Monster show. See em if they come to town!
