Pavement, the iconic ’90s indie rock band, has made a triumphant return to the stage at the Mosswood Meltdown in Oakland, CA. This marks their first performance since November, and they kicked off the three-day festival with a memorable pre-party featuring acts like Christina’s Trip, Memo PST, Vivian Girls, and Wednesday.
During their set, Pavement surprised fans with a quirky cover of Led Zeppelin’s “Stairway to Heaven,” showcasing frontman Stephen Malkmus’s playful approach to the classic. While attempting to sing the fifth and sixth verses, Malkmus humorously mixed up the lyrics, declaring, “I like mangos” and joking about his lack of rehearsal. This lighthearted moment perfectly encapsulated the band’s unique charm.
As they dive into their fifth year of their second reunion era, Pavement continues to captivate audiences with their blend of wit and nostalgia. Their performance at Mosswood was a reminder of their enduring influence on the indie rock scene.
