Deaner himself once said in an interview that all of his solos are either “Blue Sky” or “Maggot Brain”, and he’s waiting for somebody to call him on it.
I've been on a one man crusade encouraging Michael to just do the whole record. Buckingham Green, Johnny On The Spot, The Argus, Chocolate Town... so many tracks ripe for the picking
Claude Coleman might be in the top 10 rock drummers of all time. The apple doesn't fall too far from the tree....his dad was amazingly talented as well.
He plays the kit like it's an orchestra setup. I had the pleasure of meeting him once at a music festival. I was more star struck than the time I met Les Claypool. Claude was a really nice guy.
Agreed. Especially considering he came back from a horrible accident and doctors questioning if he'd ever be able to have the coordination and dexterity to play again. The man worked his ass off to overcome the effects of brain damage, partial paralysis, and a crushed pelvis and never looked back. Plus, he's just a really swell duder.
i saw them on halloween in 2018 and i swear to god he did like a SEVEN MINUTE drum solo during voodoo lady, dude is a machine. still one of the best shows i've ever seen live bar none.
need to give some recognition to Dave Dreiwitz holding down the low end. Masterful bass player. He’s also the bass player for Joe Russo’s Almost Dead, except when Ween is on tour which takes priority.
YES!!!! Been waiting for you to react to this. Deaner is one of the scariest guitarists ever. He got no props because Ween is not about props. Ween is the real deal.
Ween is what happens when a teenage punk band gets really good at their instruments and branches out into other genres without learning the stylistic "rules" most musicians take for granted.
I love that this is, what...your third ween vid? You went from "some dudes told me to check this band out" to a point now where it's clear you've developed a huge appreciation for the band's musical talent.
man at this point you basically gotta react to the whole damn 2003 DVD, love your reactions to ween and i hope the next song of theirs you do is Buckingham green! as to not knowing how to describe it at 6:35, the word you're looking for is BROWN lol
Their best guitar song, and Dean has mentioned his favorite song to play live, is Roses Are Free. There’s an excellent live version from a festival on YT.
Just saw Ween live for the first time the other night and they were amazing! They played this song and it was just as drawn out and killer as this version…they love to jam on this one!
Ween is a long deep dive. funk freakouts like this, beautiful country music, next to gorgeous Philly soul, it goes on and on. Almost always catchy and if not, it still remains always interesting.
I wondered why you stopped. You seemed to really enjoy them and you haven't even begun to scratch the surface. Once I was hooked I couldn't stay away. Going to see them for the first time next week in Scranton.
First time I saw them live, already knew all their tunes by heart, but I was perhaps face-off & danced from 11p-2a to them + some guests on a clear, starry night, nonstop. Such an amazing band & stellar kind fellas!!
Dude I was waiting for you to do this one. Not to downplay any of the other songs, but in a nutshell there's a great song for you to break down. Thank you thank you thank you!
Awesome! But this isn't even scratching the enormous surface that is WEEN. B-sides, Demos, covers, rarities🤘 DEEP DIVE and worship BOOGNISH🖤 Love what your doing!
I’ve been a Ween lover for sooo many years now. I’ve seen them countless times. I so enjoyed watching your face experience this…it was like showing someone the ocean for the first time. Great stuff.
Love Ween! great choice. Classic one here. The solo on this live take is well quite extended, and to me really reminds me of the tension and release thing that make so many jam bands great. These guys studied country music just to make a country LB. They are beyond their time on many of their records.
Every time I see Claude drumming I'm blown away by how much of a badass he is. Super underrated, he might be in my top 5 of favorite drummers of all time.
Love your reviews of Ween. Have you taken the time to experience a live event? I've been living this amazement for 35+ years! "Let me rest in time while I blow your mind".
Not sure if I posted this already but wanted to recommend Nirvana-Endless nameless live at the paramount. Knowing you like nirvana a lot it’s a fun one
Would love to see you react to black midi’s “John L” (their KEXP version in particular). They do a lot of really funky musical things that I think we could all get a kick out of!
We got to hang out with David Byrne’s band a couple of years ago and the majority of his bands favorite band, at least at the time, was Ween which made me so happy because they were so smart and so accomplished and so talented. I love that you’re getting to experience weed and I hate that some people go through a whole lifetime without knowing they exist
They pretty much play this at every live show, it's a staple right up there with Buckingham Green, spinal meningitis. I've seen them live probably two dozen times and only time they didn't play this was when I saw them at this local fundraiser at the New Hope football field when they played a very short set... You can actually watch that. It was June 2020
Love ween, for the actual song this version I think trades the groove for energy in a way that I like but wouldn't listen to as my main version. The 2nd solo is amazing though, Deaner is a god.
Ween is the reason I'm still alive. No bullshit. Their music is this Mona Lisa on Mt Rushmore thing in the handicapped stall of a Kwik Trip witch means you're crazy or in Wisconsin, which makes entirely much more sense ...wait why did I not fuck up the 2 ways to spell witch?.... is there only 2 ways... fuck I hope so... witches scare me... like voodoo ladies
Deaner himself once said in an interview that all of his solos are either “Blue Sky” or “Maggot Brain”, and he’s waiting for somebody to call him on it.
His guitar is quite clearly covering his junk in this performance, so obviously he forgot that lesson. It needs to be above or below, never covering.
@@nickmeyer1030However, notice that when he is getting really down and dirty the guitar is in fact below the dick.
More Ween please, anytime, whenever…
God I love Ween.

I’ve been singing the praises of Claude Coleman on music CZcams for years. It’s criminal how few people have no idea who he is.
Agreed. Especially considering he came back from a horrible accident and doctors questioning if he'd ever be able to have the coordination and dexterity to play again.
The man worked his ass off to overcome the effects of brain damage, partial paralysis, and a crushed pelvis and never looked back.
Plus, he's just a really swell duder.
@jarodeddy859 Also, I agree here. The man can coax a hell of a lot out of a relatively minimal/standard kit.
i saw them on halloween in 2018 and i swear to god he did like a SEVEN MINUTE drum solo during voodoo lady, dude is a machine. still one of the best shows i've ever seen live bar none.
"I Don't know how to describe it." The word you're looking for is "Brown" mane.

DOUBLE DIIIIIIIIIIP
YES!!!! Been waiting for you to react to this. Deaner is one of the scariest guitarists ever. He got no props because Ween is not about props. Ween is the real deal.
Hes on the underrated Mt Rushmore
Ween is what happens when a teenage punk band gets really good at their instruments and branches out into other genres without learning the stylistic "rules" most musicians take for granted.
This isn't even remotely close to being accurate.
@@thegreatbrardnot trying to dunk on you, but why not? As a “classically trained” musician this definition hits home for me
@@colenicholson96 they weren't a punk band...
They used to play to a DAT of deener playing drums when they 1st started.... there's a live vid from 1989 you can see them in the beginning
@@SeamusPercy-tc3flhave you seen video of their first gig in high school? It was definitely punk rock
I love that this is, what...your third ween vid? You went from "some dudes told me to check this band out" to a point now where it's clear you've developed a huge appreciation for the band's musical talent.
Loved this song for a while now but never realized what an insane level of guitarist Dean really was/is. Holy shit.
His solo from That Man From The Flatland has been killing me lately. Dude is truly a god with a guitar in his hands
man at this point you basically gotta react to the whole damn 2003 DVD, love your reactions to ween and i hope the next song of theirs you do is Buckingham green! as to not knowing how to describe it at 6:35, the word you're looking for is BROWN lol

Phish does it better, imho
Phish does not do it better
@@oliverchapman51177 I love phish and I can’t stand their version
Phish does it different. Regardless, I discovered ween through phish’s version so all is good in the world.
@@Isaac.Garcia666 that’s how untalented Ween is. Saw them 300-400 just in new hope the past 35 yrs. Just awful
Dude just do the whole Live in Chicago record already
YES MORE WEEN. PERHAPS THE BEST LIVE BAND EVER!!!!
Dean ween the most underrated guitar player ever
Just saw Ween live for the first time the other night and they were amazing! They played this song and it was just as drawn out and killer as this version…they love to jam on this one!
Ween is a long deep dive. funk freakouts like this, beautiful country music, next to gorgeous Philly soul, it goes on and on. Almost always catchy and if not, it still remains always interesting.
At 4:40.. WHAT WAS THAT??? That's the STALLION MANG!!!
YESSS finally you react to more WEEN! I live for you soaking up the sweet brown elixir that is their music!
Assuming you haven't already, I big time recommend checking out their live in Chicago performance of I'll Be Your Jonny On The Spot
You should definitely do L.M.L.Y.P. by Ween!
Their ode to Prince
🤎
Ween got me to Explore Past Metal Music as a Young man. Thank God for Ween.
Or Satan
More from Ween Live in Chicago please. They were on fire that tour.
i love it when they go into that king crimson elephant talk bit. amazing!
Never heard of these guys. Theyre awesome
Have fun going down the rabbit hole
4mos later... how's the dive going?
You described it perfectly with the P-funk vibe. Deaner talks about how much of a major influence they they have always been.
I wondered why you stopped. You seemed to really enjoy them and you haven't even begun to scratch the surface. Once I was hooked I couldn't stay away. Going to see them for the first time next week in Scranton.
That was fun to watch and hear. thanks. Yes, Ween has consistently been very very special!
First time I saw them live, already knew all their tunes by heart, but I was perhaps face-off & danced from 11p-2a to them + some guests on a clear, starry night, nonstop. Such an amazing band & stellar kind fellas!!
Deaner's solos in Voodoo Lady always reminds me of Santana at Woodstock with a weird little slice of Prince on the side
MOAR WEEN?! HELL YES!!!!!!!!
Buckles up for a hella-brown good time.
Dude I was waiting for you to do this one. Not to downplay any of the other songs, but in a nutshell there's a great song for you to break down. Thank you thank you thank you!
You could lose days watching live in Chicago. If we're blessed to see more ween from you this would be the set to take it from.
Outstanding review on an outstanding band!
All your videos are amazing, but the ween ones are the best!
Awesome! But this isn't even scratching the enormous surface that is WEEN. B-sides, Demos, covers, rarities🤘 DEEP DIVE and worship BOOGNISH🖤 Love what your doing!
"What was that?!" Pretty much my reaction the first time i heard Ween.
Exactly. It took me quite a while to fully appreciate them, but the first time was "What in god's name..?"
Ween was the first band I saw you react to, and I've been a regular watcher of your channel ever since. So glad to see you react to Ween again!
I'm old. These guys were so much fun. Lounge Ax, the Vic. Metro, the Riv. All the cool places.
Claude Coleman on why he doesn’t uses cases “They cut into my rocking time”
Fucking legend
I’ve been a Ween lover for sooo many years now. I’ve seen them countless times. I so enjoyed watching your face experience this…it was like showing someone the ocean for the first time. Great stuff.

This entire concert is a much watch
Every time I see Claude drumming I'm blown away by how much of a badass he is. Super underrated, he might be in my top 5 of favorite drummers of all time.
I just saw these guys last month and I'm ready to see them again.
“Man,this band.” You said it! lol damn right
Such a stupidly great song
Love your reviews of Ween. Have you taken the time to experience a live event? I've been living this amazement for 35+ years! "Let me rest in time while I blow your mind".
Not sure if I posted this already but wanted to recommend Nirvana-Endless nameless live at the paramount. Knowing you like nirvana a lot it’s a fun one
Michael - please tell me you’re seeing Ween this summer!! They’re one of my favorite live bands ever
Michael i think you would love that whole Chicago concert. Look it up. They are so good.
Used to be soooo into Ween. Thanks for pointing out the bass in this. Often overlooked but really drives that song.
Keep going with Ween.
'I'll be your Jonny on the spot' from the same live in Chicago album!
I would pay to see him react to that entire DVD or Live At Stubbs.
Deaner's best solo
Love it! Such a great band!
Would love to see you react to black midi’s “John L” (their KEXP version in particular). They do a lot of really funky musical things that I think we could all get a kick out of!
Michael! Go see Ween live this summer!!! It's their 40th anniversary tour!
We got to hang out with David Byrne’s band a couple of years ago and the majority of his bands favorite band, at least at the time, was Ween which made me so happy because they were so smart and so accomplished and so talented. I love that you’re getting to experience weed and I hate that some people go through a whole lifetime without knowing they exist
Hail, Boognish! Any chance you get to see them live, GO! You’ll love it.
Copy that, Ghostrider...Red Rocks 8/3 here I come!
Love it! Glad you jumped back in..
Live in Chicago is EPIC!! 😁 LOVE THE BOOGNISH!! 💚🎶🎶🎶
Love Ween!!!
Johnny on the spot
Chicago is so mind blowing
WEEN is Da'bessst!!!
Deaner once said all of his solos are just drawn out renditions of either Maggot Brain or Blue Sky...and/or both
😂
Omg Ween!! Lol! So crazy!!
Ween always goes where u don’t think it’s gonna go. Especially timing
More Ween. Their recent runs at the Capitol Theatre and Brooklyn Bowl are great shows to check out.
Amazing quality and performances on those shows; WEEN just gets better.
That first guitar solo had some major Eddie Hazel vibes; immediately after, had some Foghat vibes. Rad.
I love this version!
I love the live in Japan 2000 version with deans talk box solo.
Check out "Monique the Freak" Ween really out Prince's Prince on this one. Browntastic❤
6:20
I got the ‘I can make you dance’ Roger & Zapp vibes…but yea you right…the source.
I have waited literal years for this one.
Saw them last year, going again in Sep. Love me some Ween.
I didn't think I could feel so good on a Sunday and Monday
Voodoo Lady is the best live Ween jam. Saw them in Pittsburg in 2018 and they jammed the fuck outta it!
Yay more ween
They pretty much play this at every live show, it's a staple right up there with Buckingham Green, spinal meningitis. I've seen them live probably two dozen times and only time they didn't play this was when I saw them at this local fundraiser at the New Hope football field when they played a very short set...

Love ween, for the actual song this version I think trades the groove for energy in a way that I like but wouldn't listen to as my main version. The 2nd solo is amazing though, Deaner is a god.
Prince and Dickey Betts are Deaners faves
I've been waiting for more Ween! Basically anything from Live in Chicago is great.
WEEN! About time, Michael! Thanks!!!
Been awhile since you realized how wild and wacky Ween is... lol.. thats amazing. They are So very wildly underated as well!
Live concerts legit turn into a religious experience with Ween. Dean is a Swiss Army knife on guitar.
Ween is the greatest band in the history of music...
Ween is the reason I'm still alive. No bullshit. Their music is this Mona Lisa on Mt Rushmore thing in the handicapped stall of a Kwik Trip witch means you're crazy or in Wisconsin, which makes entirely much more sense ...wait why did I not fuck up the 2 ways to spell witch?.... is there only 2 ways... fuck I hope so... witches scare me... like voodoo ladies
This whole song goes so hard! Been waiting for you to get to this one!
You are the best guitar react/teacher on CZcams
Fuuuuck yes ! Bringing Ween back to the channel!
Dean's intro is just an Am6 played like a D7 on the 5th fret without root (A-C-F#). Then he changes the F# between G, F#, and E.
I didn't expect Nickelback to mention this song in their Nardwuar interview
Praise be Boognish! More Ween! Happy Browning to the uneducated!
hell yea love seeing ween on this channel!
Ween is The American Beatles.
Ween is the best! Thank you Michael. Please do more Ween!
Just sink your teeth into it- love Ween
You should do a review of the ween and other bands from the South Park concert at the Red Rocks.
I watched them live 2023. Indian Casino. Oh yeah. They are still very much Alive. 🙂
I also have a Live tour T-Shirt. You are Jellie AF of my Browness. :-) Fun Show! 🙂
I love Ween!
You said it right..... Wild.
the best band in the land
