Seventeen of those audience members were friends of the band. While the exact number is unknown, somewhere between twenty and twenty-five people remained in attendance for the band's half-hour set.

Weezer's first performance took place after Dogstar's, meaning that the majority of the audience had already left by the time Weezer took stage. Cuomo suggested 'Weezer' and the rest of the band accepted the distinctive name. Cuomo accepted and the band began seriously discussing a name. That night, the band Dogstar was performing and needed more bands to fill the night's lineup. On the same day that Cuomo and Sharp moved in to their new home, Cuomo phoned the Raji's nightclub in hopes of finding a concert to play. The building's garage soon became the regular home for band rehearsals. On March 19, 1992, Rivers Cuomo and Matt Sharp, along with friend Justin Fisher, moved into a house at 2226 Amherst Avenue in Los Angeles.

The February 16 rehearsal tape was labelled with several possible band names such as 'Hummingbird,' 'Outhouse,' 'The Big Jones' and even ' Fuzz,' the name of a previous band that featured both Rivers Cuomo and Patrick Wilson. Дuring this early period, the band had yet to decide on a name. The third day of practice, February 16, was recorded by band friend Karl Koch, with this performance of ' I Can't Forget the Way' being informally recognized as the first Weezer song. The band rehearsed for three days in a row, with a lineup of Wilson on drums, Cuomo on electric guitar, Cropper on acoustic guitar, and Sharp on bass. On February 14, Cuomo, Wilson, and Cropper recruited Matt Sharp and began practiing songs from their 50 Song Project at a TK Productions rehearsal studio in West Los Angeles. Much of the Cuomo-penned songs were compiled into a singular demo tape that was given the name Weezer, a nickname that his father had given Cuomo as a child due to his regular asthma-induced wheezing. Songs such as ' The World Has Turned and Left Me Here,' ' My Name is Jonas' and Undone (The Sweater Song)' were written during this time. From November 1991 to February 1992, the two had recorded twenty-seven songs for this project, and Jason Cropper had contributed two songs of his own. This was dubbed The 50 Song Project, although such goal was never reached.

After a final practice on December 4, the band would break up and the Cholesterol EP was never distributed in any form. On November 29, the band performed at the Phoenix Theatre in Petaluma, California in a concert that had been attended by friend of the band Matt Sharp. Throughout the next two months, the band would practice together several times and work to record a demo tape, named the Cholesterol EP. In October of 1991, drummer Patrick Wilson and bassist Patrick Finn recruited guitarist friends Rivers Cuomo and Jason Cropper to form the band 60 Wrong Sausages.
