The live performance of "Hash Pipe" at AXE Music on January 1, 2001, came during a pivotal time in Weezer's career. Following their 2001 album "Weezer" (commonly known as the "Green Album"), the band was experiencing a resurgence in popularity after a hiatus. This particular performance showcased their energetic sound, which was characterized by a blend of alternative rock and power pop, solidifying their status in the early 2000s music scene. "Hash Pipe," one of the standout tracks from the "Green Album," marked a stylistic evolution for the band, incorporating an edgier sound compared to their earlier work. Additionally, this period was notable for the band's reinvigoration of interest, leading to subsequent tours and a re-establishment of their fan base, making the live recording an important moment in their career trajectory.
