Why isn't Hurley ever featured?

Last night I went to Edgefest, and the show was great, Weezer played a really long set, but I was surprised when they sang atleast one song off of each album with the exception of Hurley. And they never really mentioned that Hurley had been released fairly recently. It seems like most weezer fans like the album atleast better than Raditude, and Hurley might not have sold as well as Raditude, but I think that could change if they tried to advertise it more by singing songs like Memories or Hang On live. Obviously people like the earliest albums best, but sometimes hearing a song live can completely change your perspective on it, so maybe if people could see a Hurley song live they would grow a new appreciation for the album.

What do you all think? And maybe I'm wrong, I don't know what songs they played in Birmingham.

Did they play any songs from Hurley at all like "Mermories" or "Hang On" and did they ever mention Hurley?.

As long as they don't put Can't Stop Partying in their set lists, I'm satisfied. I would enjoy hearing Unspoken live though.

Well the setlist was really good, I just wish they could've squeezed in Hang On or Memories

You would know the answer to that question if you would've read the paragraph above.
