-'''Nerd Night''' is a series of events hosted by [[Rivers Cuomo]] where he invites fans to join him, either for movie screenings or live theatre (mostly works by William Shakespeare, with the exception of the first two) around Santa Monica/West Los Angeles.
+[[Brian Bell]] and [[Rivers Cuomo]] sat for an '''interview with ''Guitar World'' magazine in May of [[2002]]'''. The interview has attained some infamy, as it documents Cuomo at his most antagonistic toward [[Weezer's]] die-hard fan community. The term "little bitches" was been as a kind of badge of pride among folks on Weezer message boards since the interview.
-The first Nerd Night was announced on the revamped [[riverscuomo.com]]; subsequent Nerd Night announcements have been tweeted out by Rivers via his Twitter account @riverscuomo, usually with a link to his website where one can request tickets. The Nerd Nights have included anywhere from 20-40 fans, where Rivers either rents out a movie theatre for private screenings, or pays for tickets for the entire group.

+{{Interviewer|GW|Sometimes, when, you meet the fans, do you feel that they're disappointed because you're even-keeled?}}
+{{Rivers|I never meet fans.}}
+{{Interviewer|GW|You never meet them?}}
+{{Rivers|Never. I like talking to them over the internet, but that's it.}}
+{{Interviewer|GW|You guys don't do in-store record singing or after-show meet-and-greets?}}
+{{Rivers|Hell no! Fans are annoying. They all want something.}}
+{{Interviewer|GW|Whether it be asking you to sign something or expecting you to act a certain way...}}
+{{Rivers|Yeah, or asking me to play a certain song. They're all little bitches, so I avoid them at all costs.}}
