"Slave" has been played live only a handful of times, including only four performances in 2002 during the band's tours in support of ''Maladroit''.

In [[2016]], the song had a brief resurgence when a poll on the band's official [[fan club]] asked what deep-cut song fans would like to see on a [[Spotify Sessions]] release. "Slave" won and made an acoustic appearance as the final track on the EP. It was also played live and acoustic at Rough Trade records on [[April 1]], [[2016]], and again that December at [[Weezer concert: 12/02/2016 - Boston, MA|an acoustic concert in Boston, MA]] for the radio station Alt 92.9, wherein the band was accompanied by members of the Harvard Orchestra. | "Slave" has been played live only a handful of times, including only four performances in 2002 during the band's tours in support of ''Maladroit''.
