Weezerpedia's featured article is a monthly showcase of our wiki's best content. Weezerpedia currently has 8,917 articles, and our editors work together each month to select one that represents the best of our abilities in page design, documentary work, journalism, or hopelessly nerdy Weezer fangirling. We have similar pages for featured songs, featured videos, featured images, and featured quotes. Weezerpedia:Featured list is being put on hiatus for a spell.

Featured article: 2226 Amherst Ave.
The Amherst House (2226 Amherst Avenue, Los Angeles) was the home of the Weezer members before their formation and well after their first album.
Matt Sharp and Rivers Cuomo moved into the Amherst House on March 19, 1992, which also marks the first time that Weezer ever played a show (at the Raji's on Hollywood Boulevard). They convinced the landlords that they were UCLA film students and therefore would make a lot of noise. Early band rehearsals and recordings took place at Amherst from now on. Members began to gravitate to the garage for recording, which was situated next to the kitchen. A picture of The Garage can be found inside the jacket of the Blue Album. The image was printed in black and white to save money, but a colored image is available in The Blue Album's Deluxe re-release.
The Amherst House is considered by fans to be one of the most important (if not the most important) place(s) in Weezer history. It is featured prominently in the "Say It Ain't So" music video, which shows extensive shots of the garage, the kitchen and the backyard. During the Video Capture Device commentary, Karl Koch gives extensive directions on how to find the house.
It was announced in November 2020 that the house was scheduled to be demolished. It was demolished at some point prior to January of 2024.
