Yeah. I like Ween a lot. I go through Ween phases though. They're not an anytime band for me at all. But when I do listen to Ween, I listen the fuck out of Ween.

When I listens tooz itz I thinks to myself: 'Sweethearts! Come baaaaaaack! What the fuck?!?!?'

Yeah, that's a great song! Here's a link:

Kostars feat. Gene and Dean Ween - "Don't Know Why" (YouTube)

Most of my favorite Ween tracks are on Chocolate & Cheese and the Mollusk. I think La Cucaracha is my least favorite. Quebec is also on the lower end, though "Zoloft" is a goddamn masterpiece.

I really like the demo Be my Wife.

everyone in my life that I've let hear 12 Golden Country Hits has laughed their asses off and fell in love with it.

they sound like generic boring assholes but, I tell you they sweet blood and bullets and never cared about their looks. I saw them live twice and they beat you black and blue. just when you want your last drink they play The Blarney Stone after they opened with the brown and loud Golden Eel. haven't heard a live recording by them that captured that night in Athens. the vibes were almost black in the 40 Watt.

most of all, they're appreciators of good pop/rock songwriting. The Argus for example.

Quebec is a landmark record. of course you have to be crazier than a donkeys leg or on psychedelics to like it. but, it doesn't matter how high or crazy you are, you still will not get the sweaty palm mushroom giddiness.

been ages since I've heard GodWeenSatan. putting it on this week reminded me how zany crazy youthful that album is. turned me onto Ween. complete opposite of the brownness that's the The Pod.

have to say too that all of their guitar based stuff has always been fun to play along to.

"gimme that Z-O-L-O-F-T. no long pissed, you don't bother me".

look,

im tired of playing games. long day at work so im huffing polyuretheane and doing whisky shots and slamming beer and jamming to Pure Guava.

fuck you party poopers non Ween party troopers.

That feeling of giving up and laying down on the grass in the back was always overcome by 'Holy shit! They're playing this song now?!?'

They played my favourite 'The Argus', a really psychedelic version of 'Playing it off Legit', a couple great 'Stallions', Israel, and the hilarious 'Pollo Asado' to name a few greats.

Onstage banter was good, got a Ween tshirt, and gave out a few of my Ween fan DVDS to fans. Ween gathered at the end and did a bow. They loved it too

Great to finally see them. It was everything great I ever imagined. Cheers Ween!

I didn't see this post before, but good for you! I'm glad you had a good time!
