Just Another Weezer Concert?

So World Entertainment News Network reported a story that caught my eye yesterday. Weezer frontman Rivers Cuomo is encouraging all fans to show up to Weezer concerts with their instruments in hand and ready to rock out to all the great Weezer hits. Cuomo went on to say, "I won't even need a guitar, because there will be hundreds of people playing."

Now several things came to mind while reading this...this could be the most ingenious and baller-ass concert ever...or this could go horribly wrong and leaving me searching for a means to get a refund.

Obviously, I'm sure fans would only show up with guitars and bass guitars since there's no possible way people could actually lug around their drum kits.

So lets look at the two possible outcomes:

Everyone who shows up to the concert actually know how to play all of Weezer's songs and everyone just rocks out. The definition of audience participation is revolutionized and
Weezer goes down into history as the band who did...

OR

Some people show up with their guitars and try to rock out. Nobody knows how to play any Weezer songs correctly, and the whole concert sounds like shit. Weezer is faced with thousands of people asking for refunds or threatening to burn down the venue...

I really doubt though that either of these situations will actually go down though. Most people will probably just leave the music playing to the band, and stick to gettin hammered and singin along. While I dont really see people bringing their instruments to the concert, I give props to Weezer for trying to think outside of the traditional concert box. However, I get the feeling the only kind of Weezer that most people should be playing is Say it Ain't So, Buddy Holly and El Scorcho on Rock Band like me.

I'm interested to hear what you guys have to say about this story. Please leave some feedback about Weezer's new idea, or any other cool concert things you've seen before!
