== ''The Blue Album'' Pre-Production Demos, August 11, 1993 ==
After the band was flown to New York City to record ''The Blue Album'', some time was taken before going to the studio in order to do some final rehearsals and narrow down the list of songs in contention for the album. [[Chris Shaw]], who would later go onto engineer the album, would also engineer this demo.

{{Karlification box|The band flew to New York and was booked time for final rehersals at S.I.R. Studios in Manhattan. Ric Ocasek, along with Ric's assistant Haig, and engineer Chris Shaw recorded the band to get a feel for the sound of the group and try and narrow down the song selection for recording the album. This demo was taped on a big Akai 12-track that used beta video style tapes. I'm sure Ric still has the master tapes.
Also, various videotape was shot of the rehersals and during the recording of the demo.|[https://web.archive.org/web/20140519063254if_/http://daveandnikolai.com/wzr/classic/03_Recording_History/WeezRecHist4.html Weezer Recording History, Page 4]}}
