You gotta try Piss up a rope by Ween. Hilarious country song
E.L.O. PLEASE
Finding Ween can be a life changing event.
Ive always been a ween enjoyer since childhood, but Literally i smoked a blunt the other night and listened to the rift, israel, did you see me, and transitions in a certain sequence, i cant remember, but suddenly i found i could read into the most esoteric details of the thoth tarot and ancient magi beliefs, its like the key to lost ancient language is hidden in the music and song lyrics no matter how absurd they can be. Cant even accurately express what visions i had but it gave me a deeper understanding of the link between the observer and the whole of things. The shadows of the wheel met my eye and showed me to the crown.
100%, changes your definition of what a good band can be
Saw them 4 times live... 100% better to hear the songs live.
Ween is such a musical delight for me... Now finding Chevelle was life changing for me.
@@TheSherlockbones77I put many thousands of miles on my old brown van hauling my friends to Ween shows in the early 2ks.
Best trip of my life was to Red Rocks to see Tenacious D open for Ween.
I'll go ahead and say it... Ween is the greatest band of all time.
They're fuckin awesome live good times
Hell yeah! Polo knows Ween. All is right with the world 🤘
Ween are a phenomenal band. “White Pepper”, “Chocolate and Cheese” and “Quebec” are all incredible albums. Their earlier albums are great too, but they probably ate their body weight in mushrooms while recording some earlier music, lol. 👍
"Mushroom Festival in Hell" 😂
The Mollusk is my favorite by them, perfect album
I fully support going down the Ween rabbit hole! They are beyond creative and give zero fucks.
yo, that whole chicago concert was a masterpiece. been a diehard fan since 93 when they dropped chocolate and cheese. great shit.
MASTERPIECE
Ween are one of the best. They can sound like any band effortlessly, every song is unique. There was even one time I heard a Ween song I didn't know and thought it was Thin Lizzy. Looked in to it and it was a song that was written by Thin Lizzy but never released so Ween did it in Thin Lizzy style to pay homage, incredible musicians.
Is the tune named "Gabrielle?"
@@dickielee6419 tis indeed
Gabrielle was written by Deaner, but it was done in the style of Thin Lizzy.
@@brianh5844 I'll take your word for it. My info was found on the Internet many years ago and I didn't really fact check. Either way they kill the Thin Lizzy style
@@joelhensley5322 czcams.com/video/26KCBv33Cqw/video.html
That's the interview where he says he wrote it because he had just discovered Thin Lizzy and was listening to nothing but that for a week.
You could throw a dart blindfolded at the entire Ween discography and not only will every song you land on be a completely different vibe, but it will be an impeccable, perfect distillation of whatever genre they decided to fuck around in for that track. Musicians' musicians and a music-lover's dream.
That whole Ween Live in Chicago DVD is sick as F. I still have it and still listen to it often. The Argus from that same DVD is just as powerful and blew me away in the same way.
Wowwy at 63 I just heard a band I have never heard. I love to hear new music that's been around. I am hooked😊❤ Thanks for allowing to join you on this new journey called Ween! My 15 yr. old nep. is a drummer with a private teacher. I can't wait to see him jamm like that drummer does...shittttt...damn it...amazing 😊😊😊
You should watch that entire Live in Chicago set, it's incredible!
Also, the drummer is Claude Coleman Jr. He's so damn good, extremely underrated.
WATCH THE WHOLE CHICAGO SHOW!!!!
Welcome to the world of Ween. The most misunderstood and underappreciated band. Another good entry song would be Voodo Lady from the same Live in Chicagow show. May the Boognish bless your ears.
Ween "Pissing up a rope" is the greatest breakup song of all time.
Followed closely by "Baby Bitch". I absolutely love Ween! Saw them live in the 90's. So creative, bizarre and hilarious.
Nan is great too.
Having just experienced a breakup, I wholeheartedly agree
Birthday Boy is fantastic too
@@physicsmann That's the one!
I was at these shows 20 years ago! Them Ween boys are Rock Gods!
Hey There Luckypants!
LUCKY!!!!!
I remember seeing "Push the Little Daises" on Beavis and Butthead when I was a teen, and I was forever hooked to their music.
Same ❤
Greatest band ever; if you like the grand scale of this I highly recommend "The Argus", that song makes me weep.
They’re a so many tracks that deserve 20 million views but there’s music lovers and just people that like music
YES! They switch genres faster than any band ever. They are the bastard sons of Prince, The Beatles, Mötörhead, & Hank Williams Sr on a full sheet of Acid, a box of Whip-Its, and all the MaryJane you can fit into a walk in closet. They're clean now, for the most part, but their body of work transcends typical descriptions. You will equally love and hate Ween at first. Then you will feel so, so dirty for liking their quirkiest offerings. Then, you will reach an acceptance that rivals most other bands. This is an absolute journey. All hail the Boognish. Thank you for allowing us to witness your conversion. Buckle up motherf'cker. See you on the other side! 🧡
Dude, you’re spot on about the stages of acceptance of Ween. I was seriously embarrassed that I liked them for a short period of time. Now I couldn’t be more proud.
26 times live... Canada, States, Europe... never a bad show. I missed the meltdown in Vancouver... mind blowing fact, Claude Coleman Jr. survived an automobile accident that he sustained pelvic fractures and brain injuries in 2002. ❤ 🙏
Watching this made my day, I just smiled watching you enter the world of Ween.
From that same Live in Chicago set, The Argus. Voodoo Lady, and Transdermal Celebration would make good reaction vids
Be Still My Heart. Ween is one of my favourite all-time bands. What a delightful surprise to see them here and I loved your reaction. Thank you to the fan who wrote such a thoughtful intro and took the initiative to request this song. Hope you will check out more from them. So looking forward to it!!
Ween deserves more views. Yes. But they are also all over the place so I can understand why some listeners don’t understand it.
This is a great track. I still love “the mollusk” and many others too. Enjoy!
Ween is the only band I know that could play 20 different original songs and you would think they were 20 different bands.
Holy cow! I bought this DVD 3 times, once as a gift and once cause I wore it out.
I envy you! Ween is an INCREDIBLE rabbit hole to follow!!! So, so, so skilled!
I saw the lead vocalist eyes and went 'Jethro Tulls little brother'. I loved this.
I love Ween! They're sublimely brilliant oddballs. You can't pigeonhole their sound -- which I suppose is part of why they're not more well known They can nail many genres, and often skewer them with wickedly funny lyrics. Behind it all is superb musicianship.
WOW. At 75 years old and I've heard WEEN...WOW
Dig in!
Their music is what you get if you take a nerd and get him hooked on bud & nitrous. I’ve always been weird so I love them.
KEEP GOING
The Argus from this album/DVD might be my favorite thing I’ve ever heard them play.
And the funniest thing about this song in its epicness...Buckingham Green is a stripmall outside of New Hope Pennsylvania! 😂😂😂
Dude gave out the best description of Ween I've ever heard. All Hail The Boognish!
Ween is a lot of fun and you should definitely revisit them! Their unique juxtaposition of masterful musicianship and teenager-like humor is a refreshing stop in the musicscape. They put on an amazing show too!
the blarney stone from this same concert SLAYS!
I love Ween so much. Though I will say, they are definitely one of those bands where you either get it or you don't. They are very weird lol, and I think that's why they have such a huge cult following. You should check out their drummer too Polo, Claude Coleman Jr. He's next level incredible, one of the most underrated drummers for sure. Stay brown, friends!
Can never tire of the beauty that is Ween. Love them dearly... I try my best to see them LIVE as much as possible. Never disappoint... and being to 40+ of their shows; they are like non other. I hope you continue down the brown road of epicness. Countless times I am playing them and no one knows who they are; but I love when I get them to listen to multiple tracks and they continually ask; who is this?... and the answer, always Ween. Boognish dances throughout most all genres and you never know what you'll hear next; but surely you will love it and wish for more.
This brings me back to my teens. Captain fantasy was in rotation for ages
Porkroll egg and cheese on a kaiser bun.
Amazing band to see live!
I adore WEEN as much as I adore Primus. Chocolate and Cheese is my fave, but love them all.
Inside fun: Dean Ween is engulfed in fog at every single show. It's sort of a gag on how rock stars use them. First time I saw Ween was on a teeny weeny stage inside of the original Austin Emo's. The stage was really only a riser a few inches tall. They played and then the smoke machine came on. It filled the bar instantly. Now, 30 some years later when that fog machine goes off, I get a good laugh.
PLEASE check out "Voodoo Lady" and "Spinal Meningitis" on the Chocolate and Cheese Album.
Thanks for the react.
I wish I could listen to live in Chicago for the first time again
And so it begins, buckle up hahaha so pumped for this journey to begin!!! All Hail Boognish!!!
I highly recommend Buenos Tardes Amigo and Ocean Man.
Buenas tardes amigo
Hola, my good friend
Cinco de Mayo's on Tuesday
And I hoped we'd see each other again….🌮🥑🌶
Ween! One of my all time favorites! I found them in the 90s just after their album Pure Guava came out and I remember how awesome it was when a new Ween album would be out.
Please dig into more Ween! Amazing band that is a hidden gem
Back in the nineties i didnt get Ween. About a decade or so ago my younger brother gave me his CD collection and there was a few of their albums..........now i fucking love Ween. "Long night" could have very well been written as a narrative to the lifestyle i had at the time. But yeah, Ween are fucking brilliant.
Fucking Buckingham Green. Epic song. Everyone should understand it if they love music. Doesn't matter to what they listen to
I spent a solid year of my life listening to The Pod. There's something just primal and immediate about their music which yeah, ranges all over the place. Loving your musical journey but I just had to drop a comment when you took a shot at Ween. I think it's a band that requires a few listening sessions to really understand. Great stuff!
Hey Polo, big fan of your channel from Germany here. You truly are a gem in this CZcams reaction world and I just want to say how happy I am that you discovered (and hopefully will) ween. Such a great and unique band. Keep on going and all the best for you.
Ich hãtte es nicht besser sagen können.😉
🙏🏾
@@charlesm9929 Er hat ein Gespür für Worte.
@@davidanon1568 Das ist sehr wahr.
YOU HAVE TO WATCH THIS WHOLE CHICAGO SHOW ✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨
I saw them live for the first time recently. Best show ever, and I’ve been to a lot of shows.
Hung out with them many times when I i lived in Philly. Seen them live over 20 times. Amazing musicians.
They are one of the most underrated bands of all time in my opinion. Enjoy the rabbit hole and the entire concert where this song is from is 🔥 and I can’t imagine these guys blocking anything. I’ve met them on a number of occasions and they’re just normal, somewhat weird guys. The guitarist Dean Ween (Mickey Melchiondo) actually used to run a fishing boat that took people on tours in his spare time.
Wow... speechless... I can't believe I've never heard of them!!! EPIC!!! I'm definitely a fan now!!!
Polo,
I’ve been following your music journey for a long time and have been awaiting your arrival to Ween since you realized Primus sucked.
Ween is admittedly weird and takes some unlocking to really appreciate a dive into their deep cuts, but some of their songs are 4-Runner material without the dive.
My suggestions:
Dr. Rock
Even if you don’t
Any Stallion
Transdermal Celebration (highly recommended)
Your Party
Voodoo Lady
Baby Bitch (great breakup song)
LMLYP (you’ll love this one)
You should check out the song “Voodoo Lady” from this same concert. It’s epic.
That's my favorite. That long ass guitar solo is 🔥
They're live shows often go for more than 3 hours. Yeah. If they play multiple shows in the same city, they do completely different sets for each.
Im a huge WEENer. One of the best bands of all time. Top live shows a person could see
SOMEONE PLEASE REQUEST JOHNNY ON THE SPOT FROM SAME SHOW/DVD. PLAY MORE WEEN !!! ABSOLUTELY A GREAT REACTION POLO, THANK YOU!!
Love this. Ween is on my all time fave list of bands, seen them over 20 times and travelled to the US to do so, and got my ticket for the Chocolate & Cheese 30th anniversary show in Philadelphia in September. Can’t fucking wait. This song was from the amazing Live In Chicago DVD release and every song in that set list is a banger.
Polo! This was one of the greatest experiences I’ve ever had, thank you. This band is really important to me! I hope you explore more of them, I would love to see you react to “the mars Volta”
I’m glad you like this. I have a lot to say about this band. I think I remember seeing Ween on MTV in maybe the late 80s or early 90s and it was so weird. It was sort of hysterical, but I love that album now, what really got me into them was the album Chocolate and Cheese. The Mollusk has some good ones. 12 Country Golden Greats, is really cool and funny. I love that the lead guitar can change styles for every genre that they do from song to song and it sounds like the real deal. Whether it’s pop, country, rock, Funk, or jazz or unique.
Helllll yeah, Ween is the shit. Love those guys.
Love that you're digging this. Ween is kind of a niche band, but those who know, know. They're truly incredible. They've done many genres, even released a country album. Pretty sure Aaron was pretty bad with drugs around this time, but they're still in their prime here.
This is the opening number in arguably the greatest concert film of the 21st century so far; I'd recommend either making your way through the rest of it on the channel or just watching it on your own time if you want to know the band better. There's no better introduction.
Agree, it's the thing that got me into the band, and I haven't looked back since. :)
That opening message is so good
I remember Ween, they are from New Hope, Pennsylvania, which is just across the Delaware river from Lambertville, New Jersey. New Hope is a really cool little town, google some images, worth a visit.
WEEN! Yes! This is album is a great place to start. So many amazing songs. Dive into The Mollusk and Chocolate and Cheese. I was lucky enough to see them with Primus at Red Rocks for the South Park 25 anniversary show. Best concert ever!
WOA!!!......Yup, WEEN got me good!! A fan...one song, and a fan. Wow...
Good luck and happy listening I went through the same thing when I discovered Ween. They are the Best❤
Big ween fan. All the albums
There is almost biblical imagery littered all throughout ween, their creative energy is so influential on the modern world its almost unbeliebable how overlooked they tend to be among the masses who consume so much content that they have inspired through their art and poetry and humor.
Deep cut for a Ween intro. I would've floated "Transdermal Celebration" or "Buenas Tardes Amigo"
WEEN! nice dude. I recommend their lesser known stuff... little miss mandee is a total banger
Damn dude, that is a deep cut. I've been listening to them for years and never come across that one.
Hell yeah, bro! Welcome to the awesome sound! “Buckingham-Live in Chicago” was definitely a solid suggestion on this person’s part! If you do find yourself diving deeper into the Ween, prepare to have your brains mashed to goo in the most beautiful way! All hail the mighty Boognish!!!
I somehow ended up with the dvd of this concert in my collection. About 10 or 11 years ago, I found it and watched the entire show about 50 times. Lol The band this profile name represents used to play both Roses Are Free and Baby Bitch. Anytime someone would yell "Freebird" at a show, they got Baby Bitch in reply and we did play the song twice in one show. Lol
I found you through TOOL reacts and watched all of them, but getting to actually see you react to WEEN… my heart is in a very happy place.
The intro message was beautifully accurate and I really hope you go on this journey.
P.S. there’s only two bands I always capitalize all their letters out of respect, and that’s TOOL and WEEN ✌️❤🤘
Yes! Yes! Yes!! I never heard them before. Happy to go on the journey with y’all. So sad it took till now. I was trying to listen to the lyrics but once they started taking me away with the music I forgot about the song. I guess I will have to try listening a few more times,sorry without all the stop starting. Keep up the good! Enjoying the journeys.
The main drummer of WEEN is amazing and doesnt get mentioned. Ever since I was introduced to WEEN in the late 90s I'm listenenig still.
The Boognish!!! Saw them at Red Rocks twice. Sick!
Wow was Ryan Hailey from Funhaus here? He's the biggest vocal supporter of Ween that ice seen in the digital space🎉
Ween is the greatest band in the world. Please check out the following songs: Johnny on the stop (Live in Chicago), Monique the freak, big jilm (live), Bananas and Blow, and Beacon light is a personal favorite.
SO COOL that you're listening to Ween! I have some insight (being Gen X) that this is a GenX band, yeah? GenX will show up and pay for shows by bands we love, but we are 100% allergic to being advertised to, commercially, and we don't have experience accessing the music we found online. We had to find it. Witness it. It's available now, but holy HELL, we worked to find this content in yon 90's!
Props for doing something so low key as Ween. Ween is one of those bands that's really good and, like your patreon dude said, is guaranteed to be one of your favourite band's favourite bands, but they always remained pretty much under the radar, hence the low views.
I don't know much Ween but I do know they don't take themselves seriously and everything I have heard is good, but I think maybe they are just too theatrical for some.i always kinda considered them a "joke" band when I was young - I can definitely tell Jack Black took some inspiration from them!- but now I have more time and a better appreciation for this type of creativity, so maybe it's time I listen to some more Ween too!
Thanks, as always!
now check out their track: Transdermal Celebration
I can't imagine there being a band with any fame that I've never heard of. This is exciting even at the chance I just don't like. I hope I like it but we require both ends of a spectrum to have something to compare one sound vs another. I can't wait Polo and so excited to have found you. 10/10 Exactly right
Love!
Yes! More Ween! Thanks
Zappa fan , I'm a show at liking it , let see , ner heard of them , luv on-yah
i. love. ween.
One of the greatest and most innovative bands of all time. Their sense of fun is infectious. Ween fans are the best too. So many people would love Ween but just don't give them a good go.
I came here to see if anyone else is willing to take the Ween plunge. I found Ween, Wheatus, Wild Colonials, Cake and a bunch of other obscure bands back in the 90s through Columbia House Music Service... I still have all my Ween CDs. Ween is a psychedelic experience.
Weird and wonderful. That’s ween. All that talent and they’ve never taken there selves seriously and neither should you. Hail Boognish!
I missed them in Winston Salem NC. Had a friend play 3 or 4 albums (CD's) and they all sounded completely different. One i remember reminded me of some Pink Floyd songs and the one they got on MTV as a hit was pushing up Daisies. Very cool and wacky. But i always forget to come back too them. I know they have an extensive catalog of many sounds. Hopefully i won't be in-betWEEN in rediscovering WEEN!
THANKS!
They must be for the enlightened which usually ain't me. I always love your take. You have let me reappreciate ( is that a word?) music I listened too all my life.
Been watching you for awhile, have always appreciated your take. I am a huge Ween fan, have been for years now. Have probably been to a dozen or so of their shows, and they have some my my favorite moments. Up there with Paul McCartney and Radiohead. They are probably my favorite band of all time.
So glad you liked this and hope to see more
Hey there my friend I just recently discovered you and I have loved your reaction I was super stoked someone suggested Ween one of my favorite bands please listen and react to ween a tear for Eddie wishing you all the best
I recon these guys love Jethro Tull , an extraordinary band , Tull , just no flute , love it , yeah
Fun band to see live; I had no familiarity with them. So many hardcore fans in attendance. One fan handing out nitrous oxide white balloons for free! Lol
Between this and your whole Hemispheres Cygnus 2 review...dude, you're the goat in my book
Hey Polo! I love your show! You crack me up sometimes with your deadpan expression when you hear something that blows your mind. I am a senior and so much love to see you react to the music I literally grew up with...posters on the wall of Zepp, at the same time in love with David Gilmour's guitar!! anyway, I wanted to draw your attention to a cool, new band called The Toxhards. They are up and coming at this time. Young guys. listen to the one hit they've put out called Oxycotin. Cowritten by Emerson Harris vocalist, songwriter, guitar. Keep up the fun content.
