Emperor Norton's Jazz Band: Apparently they have a thing for Weezer
Denatured cover of the week--nay, the year so far: when the hepcats of Frisco sextet Emperor Norton's Jazz Band played on Sunday at Amnesia, as they do the first Sunday of each month, they unveiled a sterling NoLa-jazz cover of a certain alt-grunge classic from Weezer. Watch them play "Buddy Holly" after the jump.
