The rest of Scott Schliner and Weezer are the living embodiment of the axiom “The show must continue” as they performed at Coachella just a few days after Schliner’s wife was arrested.
The beloved rock band jumped up and down to perform at the Indian Popular Music Festival on Saturday…and they performed some of the hits that concluded songs like “My Name Is Jonas” and “Hash Pipe.”
View the clip… Shriner looks like he’s focused on music – shredded along with Rivers Cuomo on stage. This is an important achievement given his wife’s difficult position.
We broke the story… Schliner’s wife, Gillian Lauren, was shot by police and arrested on Tuesday for attempted murder. Officials claim that she came out of her house with a gun and came out of her house with a gun while they were searching for the three suspects who escaped on foot after a hit and run.

Officers claim she fired the weapon… Los Angeles Police Department spokesman Jennifer Faulk told TMZ.
The officer also says he told Lauren to drop the gun…and they say he shot her in the shoulder when she didn’t. Lauren was taken to hospital where she was treated for a life-threatening gunshot wound and was later booked for attempted murder.

Schliner could not comment on the police shooting…but when he caught up with him on Thursday, Gillian said he was fine.
We knew Weezer and Scott were planning to advance Coachella’s performance. And it looks like Shriner is doing a great job.
