The inspiration for "In | The inspiration for "In the Garage" predominately came from [[The Garage|the garage]] of the [[Amherst House]], which was the location for all of Weezer's early rehearsals. Additionally, it was where Rivers found himself writing the majority of his songs. The song is arguably the most personal and revealing of all the songs to appear on ''The Blue Album''. Each verse reveals a new description to both Rivers and the garage. | ||
In the first verse, Rivers describes his interest in comics, RPGs, and super heroes, something typically not associated with a rock band. Then, in each chorus, Rivers expresses his comfort with these genuinely nerdy things. In the second verse, Rivers mentions [[Kiss]], a rock group that influenced him in his youth. Interestingly, Rivers chose to name check the two lesser-known members of Kiss rather than Gene Simmons or Paul Stanley. In the final verse, Rivers discusses himself for the first time in the song. He refers to his songs as "stupid songs" made up of "stupid words" which hints at a bit of insecurity revolving the music he is about to release to the world. | In the first verse, Rivers describes his interest in comics, RPGs, and super heroes, something typically not associated with a rock band.
