Weezer have already had a couple of huge music-festival moments this year. In April, they played a last-minute Coachella set, using it to announce that they’re making a new movie, even though bassist Scott Steiner’s wife had just been shot by police days before. In August, Weezer joined Olivia Rodrigo as surprise guests during her Lollapalooza headlining set, and they played “Buddy Holly” and “Say It Ain’t So” with her. Weezer had a busy fall festival season planned out, but a couple of their headlining sets have been canceled.
