If you like Ween, you may also like a band I'm in called the Abodes - we're kind of wonky guitar pop duo and our new album, Chicko Scene is available for FREE by following this link - <br/><br/>http://getthelot.blogspot.com/2007/02/free-album-get-abodes-album-chicko.html#links<br/><br/>Check us out next time you're bored...

The kid proceded to rip Ween apart, spewing all kinds of nonsense like "They write okay songs, but they don't jaaaam, maaaan, they can't jam for shit!" The comedy was basically off the charts, and as a fan of jambands, that shit makes me cringe. <br/><br/>The whole point of this anecdote is, Ween writes some fucking great songs, and if you can't appreciate them for what they are, you're basically a walking Terri Schiavo.

At the time this record came out, my friend loved them and had their CD--they used to get played constantly on Philly's first "alternative rock" station WDRE 103.9. I didn't know what to make of them but giggled at their song titles. Plus they had speaking parts in some crappy SNL movie (I think it was "Pat: The Movie") that bombed.<br/><br/>Listening to them now, I get their brilliance. Hopefully I can score some of their albums in the used bin at my local record store. Great post my friend. I totally get you on the Ween experience as an 11 year old.

The run from "C&C" to "White Pepper" is pretty damn impressive. Given the Philly connection, it’s become obvious that Man Man is Ween if Ween was the worst band in the world.
