It would be cool if these guys sat down and wrote some new music. I love Ween but I saw the reunion shows and a couple others, and it's kinda the same show every time. A nostalgia act. Mickey is the only good thing left about Facebook.

And yet, no new Ween songs, let alone a record. Aaron is the worst...

Still hoping for a new album, or just a new song... I love these guys but this is starting to feel like Guns N Roses tour.

Enos Cabell posted:How much longer will they be able to keep this up without releasing new material? I've seen them several times post-breakup, and while the shows were ok it just doesn't feel the same. I just can't see them continuing on as a nostalgia act for another year. I completely agree. I was super excited in 2016 for new material, that's clearly never going to happen. It's also pretty obvious that Aaron is the reason for the state of the band. Really over him as a person the more I hear and read.

me your dad posted:Additional shows in Boston and Philly announced. Sadly the Philly show falls on the Saturday immediately after my daughter's birthday so I can't make it. I wonder if they'll ever play more than a two-night weekend run with one night in Philly again. I love the music and the band but this current situation is kinda pathetic. Mickey and Aaron obviously hate each other and both are struggling with substance abuse. Onstage energy is weird, they "can't handle" being Ween for more than five nights out of the year... It just seems like a cash grab these days. Headline a festival and 'play-through' Chocolate and Cheese, collect check, go back to a crumbling personal and home life, rinse, repeat. The other members (Claude, Glenn, Dave) look like they're doing much better and wish so much more for the band. I feel really bad for Dave who is just trying to be a successful musician outside of Ween and seems to get jerked around by the frontmen's inability to book a show and stick to the date without loving it up. And they're just never going to play a new song? They can't even play the stuff from the Freeman album once or twice? Nature Man, Black Bush, would all be great with the full band. It would be poignant to see them play Covert Discretion together. It's like the Rolling Stones 2020 tour but a lot more pathetic because they aren't old enough to be a nostalgia act yet. They're just gently caress-ups.

me your dad posted:On the other hand, Gene's solo album FREEMAN was amazing. It was like White Pepper 1.5 and has some really great songs on it. Yeah but don't ask anyone else in the band to ever play or learn those songs because GOD FORBID. Seriously, if you love Ween but haven't heard this album then you're missing out. If you love this album and haven't heard any of the live shows on archive.org from the acoustic tour, you're extra missing out.

let's all endlessly fight about these albums because they sure as hell aren't ever going to write another song or put any effort into this band ever again

Harminoff posted:Lockn is good, but they are both ran by the same guy so makes sense. I'm just hoping there was a lot of orders so we see more of this. Hell, I'd take soundboard audio only for 5-10 a show. I think the band hates that hippies like them and tape the shows because it's not cool to be a hippy or something I find this especially funny 5 years into touring with no new music

caligulamprey posted:Ween’s always been and continues to be cool with boots and streaming. Check out the bounty over on archive.org or browntracker for drat near every performance since the ‘90s. Oh I know but they still like to act that the hippy scene isn't "real" Ween fandom. They don't like what Phish did for them covering Roses 30 years ago. Then you go to a show in 2021 and are surrounded by 3.0 Phish Tour shirts

With how hippy-adjacent they are it's surprising they're not on Nugs.net like every other band at Bonnaroo
