I have a love/hate relationship with show posters. On one hand, they look awesome. On the other hand, I'm always too busy pre-gaming in the parking lot to get one before they sell out.

Yeah how does that work? Am I suppose to buy it pre show and hold onto it all night, because that kind of sucks.

Solid 50/50 chance you might end up holding onto a poster throughout the show, but at least Ween usually have free tubes on hand so they won't get crushed. Nice security dudes will place it on a speaker if you're hanging off the barricade. It's usually a run-to-the-car/hotel-and-run-back situation. I'm the dude who always bought merch before the concert just to avoid the long lines post-show, though.

True story: we're a week out from Vegas and I am in full-on freak out mode.

Night 2. Despite having excellent sound, Brooklyn Bowl is a loving garbage venue with no water fountains, and the bathroom faucets are hot water only.

None of the staff knew anything in regards to when doors were going to be opened or when the show was scheduled to go on. Doors open at 5 which leads to another line inside the venue until 6 when you're lead to the stage and then the show is at 8:30-ish, in case you were in town and still were unsure.

Set list:

Did You See Me?
Exactly Where I'm At
Mutilated Lips
Take Me Away
Up on the Hill
The Stallion pt 5
Happy Colored Marbles
The HIV Song
Boy's Club
Doctor Rock
Frank

Dean had food poisoning last night and had to run off to use the bathroom, She's Your Baby was an in-the-spot decision by Gene played solo.
Deaner also used a talk box for a truly ridiculous the She Fucks Me (LMLYP's been cut two nights in a row, gotta use the talk box for something).

Deaner wants to put out the capital shows as it was filmed professionally multicam, only time will tell if they actually do though.

These past few nights great quality audience captures should be up by the end of the month/early next on music archive.

Night 3 devolved into Dean Ween literally dancing for money while the audience chucked chips at him. Hands down my favorite show of all time in terms of outright lunacy. The Linq is a Patrick Bateman fever dream and the only good thing I saw in the entire city was a life-sized plastic saxophone that holds 100 ounces of daiquiri that you sipped out of the mouthpiece and you had to tilt it up when it got below the halfway point.

Both nights of Lockn from last August are on youtube with professional quality video/audio.

All of the 2016 shows are up on relisten (or archive.org, it's the same content but relisten's interface is better IMO). The audio for the February Colorado reunion shows is really good from what I can recall. Not sure about the others but generally the tapers have their poo poo together and produce good material.

Yeah, Deaner was incredibly stoked after that run and posted on facebook that he wanted to talk to Gener about putting out a live album of all 3 nights. I think he's also said that he has soundboard audio from every show they did in 2016. I'd be pretty surprised if we don't get either a Cap run album or an overall 2016 tour album within a year or two.

Night 3 was close to my ideal setlist. I can't believe they played Albino Sunburned Girl, and it may have been from an audience request based off what Deaner said afterwards? Huge props to the guy that was streaming all of these.

100% An honest request that caught them so off-guard, they had to do it. Put the Coke on my Dick was also a request, too.

REAL TALK NOW THAT I'M AT A REAL KEYBOARD (not going to lie, it's gonna be word-vomit from hereon out, I'm still coming down): What spawned the chips incident was that someone had made fake Ween poker chips. Someone threw one on the stage, Deaner picked it up, made a comment and then was immediately inundated with a million fake poker chips and one real one for $100 (I myself folded my last $5 into a paper airplane and hurled it as hard as I could which hit the ground and was immediately given back to me by security). They asked him for his request which was Ambrosia Parsley, a detail I know because he had been shouting for it all loving night after every goddamn song which was immediately ignored.

And, to be fair, that's most definitely bottom-tier in the Prince homages. It's the Stallion Part 5 of Prince worship songs, though Stallion 5 loving killed live.

From there the show became fully off the rails as a wedding proposal went horribly wrong when the groom dropped the wedding ring in-between the stage and a wall with about an inch worth of space. It got so bad a random person from the crowd threw their own ring at them to use as a replacement which, when they did fish the ring out of the space, the groom was left holding up some random dude's wedding ring, who's is it? Who loving knows. The band congratulated them on their engagement by playing Iron Man.

At the end of the night? loving Ambrosia Parsley motherfucker rolls up to the stage and demands his $400 back because they didn't play his request, genuinely angry about it. Ya got fleeced, son. You can't shampoo a shampooer.

Ween is always best when you can stumble home afterwards. My favorite show of all time was seeing Ween shortly after Mollusk came out, at a real seedy dance hall type club literally a block and a half from my (at the time) front door.
