Gene Ween -It's Gonna Be (Alright)- Hopewell, NJ - 1/18/2007

[blisterpacman]

this is one of my favorite songs, it makes me think of my mistakes and the bitter sweet feeling at the end of it all

[paneappleapple]

i cry when i hear this song. and i cry even more when my relationship is on the rocks and i hear it..

[NeenersOside]

Gawd damn.. I love this song..& this version of it!

[Elbowdude]

I sing this song to my son every night before he goes to sleep, along with "She wanted to leave". I'm holding off on "The Blarney Stone" for now.

[LoveDriving2LCohen]

I'm going straight back to Leonard Cohen and stay, yet again, faithful!

[jahovahut]

And if the mist ever lets the sun through, I just hope i did the right thing, for me and you.

[PutItAway101]

Flanger pedals cannot be forgiven. End of story.

[ChillyCheezItz]

@PutItAway101 Fuck off

[PutItAway101]

@ChillyCheezItz Go get a dictionary and look up the word 'joke'. Let me know if you have any trouble understanding it.

[rabbitnosekid]

Every person I have ever met who speaks the words, "country sucks" (usually with the word, "dude" thrown on the end,) also happens to be the most ignorant people i've met.

[EarlyGirlcoh]

5 peeps are NOT alright!

[ecolibrium1]

l listen to this all the time driving home....always hits a deep chord. such a wonderful song.....its gonna be alright

[MrManwitaplan]

I live in hopewell and didnt even now this show happened until now!!! FUCK

[TheTwisted67]

This is just a great version of this song. I like how the audience is so laid back during the performance, this was an awesome show from start to finish.

[TrishStampone]

love you Gener!

[bellydweller]

this song sounds amazing stripped down. Another overlooked country gem.

[chickenthr33]

@bellydweller Country? Country sucks, this is good music.

[bellydweller]

@chickenthr33 ween has always had deep country influences that can be seen at least as far back as 1990 (sorry charlie-pod) possibly earlier. You really have no fucking idea what your listening too. They've had country or country influenced songs on every album from the pod on, they even made a whole album of country songs recorded in nashville during the mid 90's.

[bertchet]

@bellydweller 12 Golden Country Greats...good album, and I generally hate country music. It's definitely a ween style album, which is probably I can tolerate it.

[SwordsDragonsAndCoke]

@chickenthr33 12 golden country classics says what?

[soadratmetc]

Whenever I get over stressed and confused and sad about everything this song always makes me cry :(

[hippiekyd416]

I'm seeing him tomorrow!!!!!

[ILLhumanati]

He looks a lot like Christopher Hitchens to me.

[Palaverer]

Ohhhhh yeahhhhh... He kind of reminds me of Lobo in a way...

[Palaverer]

Ohhhhh yeahhhhh...

[donksyjohn]

The five people that disliked this vid should be banned from the internet

[jahovahut]

nice version, thanks for posting

[atcgod777]

The bass player is sooo Brown.

[parsonsian]

The Mollusk is one of my very favorite albums.

[BRYONMU]

gene kinda reminds me of paul mccartney circa 80s

[brainmucas]

Stay healthy Papa Gene! What an amazing version of this song...beautiful!

[djm1780]

Cubbiefan, I was just going to say the same thing!!!!!!!!

[djm1780]

cubbiefan, I was just gonna say the same thing!!!!!!

[BenBeanin]

the bassist is Dave Dreiwitz of Ween!!! I met the dude once.

[hankyhoyo]

Great performance! He sounds like John Lennon to me.

[cubbiefan41]

but he looks like McCartney lol

[meng365]

seems like he cant remember the words

Seems like you can't remember your face.

lol

[wartravs22]

Few bands can do psychedelic groove rock one second and a heartbreaking ballad the next. Good job, Ween!

[anotherzibber]

I'm waiting for the punchline, though

[rancidpunkskunx]

what pedal does he use to get that effect?

[daaane]

@rancidpunkskunx probably some kind of phaser, or flanger

[jakefortwice]

phase 90 pegged?

[brainmucas]

@jakefortwice yeah, phase 90'd all at like 3-4 O' Clock if i remember correctly...(i traded mine)

[davedavedavecowan]

seems like he cant remember the words

[Eivindaugust68]

Seems like you can't remember your face.

[weenrocker]

What a tear jerker!

[ChannelSurfer]

God, what a fantastic vocalist.

[themoonsbluelight]

What model Yamaha is Gene playing?

[camposatnight]

[tamfl31]

It's my personal favorite as well..went for a drive today to de-stress...and had it on..it always helps.

[kippergore]

this is what turned me on the ween. most of my friends have been fans forever, but this sparked my interest and, yes, i missed out for years. a great band.

[childrenofbodom3]

One of my favourite songs played on my birthday :)

[desimaltall]

Amazing song, but why is he alone? Where is the Allmighty Deaner?

[felixuselegos]

Well he's got Dave Dreiwitz with him, a great bassist to say the very least.

[rguimond]

..Sort of like Paul McCartney singing solo on Yesterday..

[rsublett321]

WOW!! Amazing performance.. simply amazing

[Tammy3131]

He continues to amaze me with his talent..just cant take my eyes off and then after nailing the song, he flashes that oh so charming grin..love it!

[azzad10]

some kind of heavy phaser or chorus effects id say

[Dave2001G]

Can anyone place the effects he's using?

[suburbancamo]

that's a phaser.

[ckyvick666]

sounds like a normal phaser, listen to the 45 and 90 to compare with this~

[rosefelagito]

wow its great!

[synkciu]

amazing, and touching, wow..

[bunnee777]

from insane to gorgeous, ween is a dream band!

[zhochmuth]

[AshCheek9]

Quit making my panties disintegrate..

[crippleslayer]

[sluggsworth]
