==Overview==
"Zep Jamb" is first known to have been demoed under the title "I'm Not In Love" during the [[Hooptie Tour]] at [[DC Demos|Monster Island Studios]] in Washington, D.C. on [[May 27]], [[2001]]. This recording was among several from those sessions released to the band's [[weezer.com|official website]] as a free MP3. The song was recorded again for the [[BBC_Sessions#2001|BBC Radio 1]] show ''The Evening Session'' on [[June 13]], 2001, but was not broadcast and was not finished until the band returned to Los Angeles on [[July 9]]. The song was performed live (under the title "Zep Song") at every concert on the [[Euro Freak Out Tour]], and at two shows in [[Karl's Corner - 07/24/2001|New York]] and [[Karl's Corner - 07/25/2001|Philadelphia]], respectively. The song was attempted only once (under the title "Zep Jamb") during the [[Maladroit Demos|studio sessions for ''Maladroit'']], on [[January 9]], [[2002]], before the song was, ultimately, abandoned.
