In The Garage: 'Art Celebrating Geek Culture opens Friday at Blank Space Gallery in Connecticut. Inspired by Weezer's Blue Album staple "In The Garage" which shares a lot of theme's with The Beach Boy's "In My Room" is about the places we went as children and young adults where we felt safe, from the Mushroom Kingdom, the Garage Band, to fighting in the Ring against Bald Bull.  It harkens back to a simpler time in our lives when the most pressing issue was getting home from school to save the Princess, or covering three chord punk songs in the basement with friends.  It's the common shared pasts we've all had being  "geeks."  Finding within our own memories the idea that though we might have been playing Nintendo by ourselves, we were hardly alone.'
