| [[Image:17 Years of Weezer.jpg|100px|left]]
| |
| It was 17 years ago on this Valentine's Day that [[Weezer]], one of the most influential bands of their decade, was formed. [[Rivers]], [[Pat]], [[Jason]] and [[Matt]] all gathered together at T.K. Studios in West LA to crank out what would become the earliest of early Weezer songs. The then unnamed band rehearsed in the studios for four days rehearsing songs like "[[I Can't Forget The Way]]" and future mega-hits like "[[Undone]]".
| |
|
| |
| So on this Valentine's day, please take a moment to neglect the ones you love and spin your old copy of [[Blue]], or pop in the ''[[Video Capture Device]]'' for an hour or two. Be sure to put on your favorite Weezer t-shirt.
| |
|
| |
| Weezerpedia wishes Weezer a very happy 17th birthday. They can now watch rated R movies.

| Hi Weezerpedianese.<br>
| |
| As many of you may have noticed, there is a link in some places on the site that talks about a media archive. That section of the Death Star is still under control. Unfortunately, it's not going to be fully operational for quite some time (It would seem Geffen has beef with some of the stuff we were going to put in there). Either way, a bunch of nice, legal, and copyright free material should be coming your way soon. Until that time, you can access our exclusive Karl Koch interview [http://weezerpedia.com/media/audio/interviews/Weezerpedia%20Interviews/weezerpediainterviewsmain.html '''here'''].
| |
|
| |
| Also, we'd like to ask you to credit Weezer.com in the summary if you upload a photo from the website.

| |
| Hi weezites.
| |
|
| |
| I did a little interview with Karl Koch in SLC before the show (which was killer). You can download the interview '''[http://weezerpedia.podbean.com/medias/web/aHR0cDovL21lZGlhNi5wb2RiZWFuLmNvbS85MDgwNy91L09oam9uYXNJbnRlcnZpZXdzS2FybEtvY2gubTRh/OhjonasInterviewsKarlKoch.m4a here]'''.

| '''Weezerpedia interview with Karl Koch (pt. 1) is up!'''<br>
| |
|
| |
| Weezerpedians!~<br>
| |
|
| |
| Video from the interview I conducted with Karl Koch in St. Paul last Friday is now available on YouTube! This is part one of a two part interview series that ohjonas and I did with Karl at Weezer shows. There are a few issues with the audio being out of sync in a few of the videos. I'm trying to fix it, but that's going to take (more) time. In the meantime, you can still watch it. We covered a variety of topics and there's something interesting for everyone, in my opinion. Highlights of each part are below its link.
| |
|
| |
| * [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bdbHIlBTUMk&fmt=18 Part 1]: Includes Karl's thoughts on how the tour is going, negative Weezer fans.
| |
| * [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EU7vZ1KTSlU&fmt=18 Part 2]: Karl's thoughts on the poor sales of ''Red'', the state of the music industry.
| |
| * [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gwb9fV5H0S4&fmt=18 Part 3]: How Karl gives input during the Weezer creative process.
| |
| * [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ts_xUb7mxFU&fmt=18 Part 4]: The story of "I Will Poop on Their Car Seats" - with actions!
| |
| * [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q2E0QYRSlUo&fmt=18 Part 5]: Karlophone, Southern Fried Swing.
| |
| * [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hHypTu77tw4&fmt=18 Part 6]: Karl gets in a car accident with Rivers. AND GETS DANGEROUS!~
| |
|
| |
| Enjoy! This interview should be available for download soon, and I will do my best to get the syncing issues fixed. You should see/hear ohjonas' interview in the near future.

| Hey Weezerbitches,
| |
| I've gotten some emails about people having problems with the podcast. Turns out the response was so overwhelming that we actually used up all of our allotted bandwidth in iTunes. I'm proud. Kudos to all of you for your support of Weezerpedia. I can't believe we used up our bandwidth. That amazes me. All the bandwidth is reset at the end of the month so just sit tight until then or go to the [http://weezerpedia.com/media/audio/interviews/Weezerpedia%20Interviews/weezerpediainterviewsmain.html archive]

| Weezermites,
| |
|
| |
| Listen, we're really glad for all the contributing you're all doing, but we need to all sit down and have a chat. There are some things that are causing Megasnorkel, Soup, and myself to all lose sleep over. So please let it be noted that these '''are mandatory rules that you must follow'''.
| |
|
| |
| 1) If you're making a new song page. Please make the page. Don't write one sentence and then put EXPAND at the top. It makes it really difficult when songs aren't connected. EVERY song page that is started requires a song box. If you don't put in a songbox, your page will be deleted.
| |
|
| |
| 2) When you are making a songbox, don't just throw ? ? ? into every box you don't feel like filling out. It just makes more work for us. Please take the time to open your media player of choice and actually find the length of the track. Please take the time to go to weezed.com and look at the RC archives to see what the RC# and COR#s are. If you don't follow this, we'll unfortunately be removing your page.
| |
|
| |
| 3) One of my most precious babies is the [[List of Weezer songs]] page. If you're going to go edit that page, don't just throw ? ? ? ? in for every box you don't feel like filling out. If you're going to work on something you should really do it right. Just because we want people beefing pages doesn't mean we want Grade D beef. '''Here at Weezerpedia, we strive for Grade A, USDA approved, choice beef.'''
| |
|
| |
| Thanks. I'm glad we had this little chat.

| Weezerpotamians,
| |
|
| |
| The forum has run its course. It serves no practical purpose at this time. It will be back when it's needed (should A6 go down again or whatever). Thanks for chatting with us. -- [[User:Megasnorkel (admin)|Megasnorkel (admin)]] 05:29, 21 October 2008 (UTC)
