==Overview==
==Overview==
"Saturday Night" was first recorded by [[Rivers Cuomo]] on [[March 7]], [[2001]]. It was later demoed by the entire band several times until [[December 22]], [[2001]], the last time the band recorded it. Four versions have been released to fans through [[Weezer.com]]. The first version is notably high-spirited and goofy, and is the only one to include former Weezer bassist [[Mikey Welsh]]. It also features significantly different production, falsetto backing vocals, and silly improvised banter in its opening seconds. This first version was recorded on [[May 27]], [[2001]] at Monster Island Studios in Washington D.C, as a part of the "[[DC demos]]." The three versions that followed it were recorded in December, as a part of the official Maladroit recording process. They were performed with a production and attitude much more similar to that of Maladroit, with changes to the solo and lyrics. [[Scott Shriner]] plays bass and sings on these three demos.
