6160 Hollywood Blvd. is the location of Raji's, a now-closed rock club in Los Angeles, California. Weezer played their first show at Raji's on March 19, 1992.

Regulars who look as if they’re wearing the clothes they slept in are crammed into the seedy, subterranean restaurant, alongside record-industry types wanting to get a look at this newest weird wonder on the L.A. rock scene... The club has been a fixture on the scene for 10 years, and 90% of the bands that play here are local and unsigned. It’s hit and miss, but a sure way to see something different.
