Ween Interview - Austin, Texas

[SantiBernhardt]

Why is J Mascis interviewing them?

[michstate420]

lolol awesome

[jonigun1]

CHRISTIAN BAND?? Are you serious? I met these guys in 1991 and partied with them..they would totally laugh at you hysterically if you said they were a christian band!!!

[AWSOMEPOSSUM16]

@jonigun1 I think it's sarcasm.

[xtelemasterx]

@jonigun1 your inability to sense a joke makes it quite surprising that you're a ween fan at all, let alone someone that they would deem cool enough to "party" with.

[jonigun1]

CHRISTIAN BAND?? Are you serious? I met these guys in 1991 and partied with them..they would totally laugh at you hysterically if you said they were a christian band!!!

[candlewhiskey]

good interview

[cursiver]

i think its a good interview, he asks all the things that i would wanna know.

[easybeezy420]

The interviewer sucks. ask them about festivals and getting crazy or something cool, jesus

[dlg725]

they arent really a christian band are they?

[lesboognish]

@dlg725 hell to the no

[dlg725]

@lesboognish haha alright thanks man

[83joonior]

@lesboognish Phew, I'm glad I read all the comments on this page! I fucking love Ween but if they were a religious band (as stated by the #2 thumbed up comment) I'd have a serious problem!

In other words I love Ween, hate religion! lol

[xuberchrisx]

@dlg725 theyre about as christian as my parents...........

i caught a ween show in honolulu when i lived in HI, and afterwards me and some friends caught gene slippin walkin away after the show, and offered to get him totally fucked up for free if he hung out, and all he wanted to do was fuck a hooker, and walked off

[dlg725]

@xuberchrisx i guess your parents aren't very christian

[DeccyB123]

@xuberchrisx probably just thought you were a douchebag brah

[snackfoot]

7:51 Gener burps

[mikesammy]

I saw them last night (my third time seeing them).

Awesome!!!

[Benjabola]

I'm seeing them when they come to Toronto in July!

[johnmoser01]

WEEN is the greatest band ever

Opinion is the most important thing in the world

[helloofiree]

heh gene rollin?

[Fetrey]

Say what you want about the interviewer... but at least he's a true Ween fan and not some joker who's putting on a front.

This guy was spreading the word of the Boognish long before most people ever heard of Ween. I have to give him props for that.

[panzercat39]

@Fetrey Yeah I agree,if I was interviewing Ween I would probably just stare and shit myself,so give the guy a break.

[schwilly75]

i love ween.

[HDale309]

Did one of these dudes go so bald he hardly be recongized today??

[Ericclapton24000]

Yeah Gener did. L.O.L.! I saw them in concert and I couldn't recongize him either. =\

[HDale309]

how are you logging into my acct?

[frizzlefry420oh]

@HDale309 gene ween. yeah, hes a little worn out now

[bradleyrock4602]

@HDale309 No

[ConnDevi88]

They look so bored

[DanjoFox]

The guy conducting the interveiw sucks.

[Crackhouts]

If he would just shut the fuck up. . .

[Fetrey]

Gene and Dean were totally stoned out of their minds on marijuana the entire time they wrote and recorded GodWeenSatan and The Pod. They said the first album that they recorded at least halfway sober (if you wanna call it that) was Chocolate and Cheese.

[shittyshit69]

@Fetrey gener was stoned on big gulp

[Crankgorilla]

Fuck I was tanked to the eyeballs when I wrote that. Truly Fucked. Man, I'd love Hitlers dog in that state.

[Crankgorilla]

I hope i dont have to help them to be beatiful. Because they already are! Luv boys.

[perleatsworld]

You're awesome

[Jeffro321]

Russ Hicks has played the Quad Cities steel guitar convention for quite a few years now and I talked to him about these sessions. I said you played on Weens country lp? He replied with a strong southern drawl "You mean those rockers" it was great! He also said that they wanted to do some big show out on the east coast somewhere with all of the original members from the sessions and after all of there wife's heard the cd they said no way....

[R2burde]

just ask'em about sniffing coke and taking shrooms

[MusicJew158]

Heh I am just getting into these guys...heh Gene said "all your favorite hits" made me piss myself

[elstuko]

haha. Intervjuer 1 Ween 0.. ;)

[somarlrae]

Man. that's looks like Whipping Boy, man who more or less introduced me to Ween. I miss Whipping Boy, made a stupid ass statement about the A&M bonfire disaster and got his ass fired. Wonder what became of him?

[stephenpaultaylor]

yeah, the dj is a bit annoying. talks too much. more ween less college radio guy

[bonemachine11]

NEW HOPE PA

[PolarBeamz]

Ween are just great!

[TheToltec]

Very Good:)

[MyFoodsRtouching]

awkweeeerrrrrrrrrrrrrd

[EveryoneNeedsToChill]

are they from Texas?

[jarbo26]

Nope they're from pennsylvania

[EveryoneNeedsToChill]

You mean North Carolina?

[PolarBeamz]

In a little town called New Hope.

[EveryoneNeedsToChill]

=]

Nice.

[pureevilfnord]

GODDAM, college dj's SUCK at interviews.

[lcmtvbreath4]

YEah... It was great.... lot's of fun...

[velvetforest3]

ick.. geggy tah

[symbal777]

haha this so awkward its great

[albaTX]

Taco Cabana!!

[FuFromtheMisses]

agreed. ween makes me turd my pants. in a good way. teehee. turd hahah!

[eraserhead321]

they make me come love juice in my pants. then my dog licks it and i piss on the floor. each to their own eh? what? piffle!

[CB900SS]

I love how a negative comment about this band is met with personal insults. Like it is so serious. Ween fans are have delicate little feelings, I guess.

[eraserhead321]

Fuck off fuck face. You love dick in your sore slack asshole. interlectualize that mother fucker. actually, just fucking hang yourself and end your pittiful excuse for a life.

No, not really. I loveyou.

yours sincerely, Mr. Brigadeer Nasty Pileneck The Third (Mrs.)

[symbal777]

eraserhead is an awesome movie.

i bet CB900SS hates it

[Yourdum8]

lol how do you call someone a dumbass for the basic reason of not liking the same music as you? do you even know what egotistic means?

[dirode620]

hahaha i like how you think people are following around...though maybe it's they just like looking up ween videos...not only are you a complete dumbass...but your an egotistical dumbass

[dg858]

ween is the greatest thing ever

[Tammy3131]

How can you not love all things Ween?!

[robs70986987]

I LOVE WEEN

[ElectricPid]

ween = awesome

[bellydweller]

they have been recording since the late 80's

[intothetopcorrupt]

I couldn't agree more: the record industries are afraid to take chances with quality music versus quality image. The fact that they're so completely dependent on money is biting them in the back and soon they will learn their lesson

[CB900SS]

"Quality Music"??? They can't sing or play for shyte and laugh about it all day. They think their fans are idiots and the band was just an 8th grade joke. Get a grip.

[GlueyPorch]

YET ANOTHER video where you are complaining about Ween! You really need to get a life.

[CB900SS]

U R the one following me around and I need to get a life?

[GlueyPorch]

Yes, you REALLY need to get a life. Please, before it's too late. Your dumb comments are under almost every Ween video I watch.. which I watch because I'm a fan and not because i'm 'following you around'.. retard. Find a new hobby if your life is really this bad. This is my last reply to your bullshit.

[PieKlan]

Gene** Moron.

[zeldahalomanhunt]

totally

[yakitoriPB]

ween is not new bro. Been around since 90s

[CB900SS]

actually, the were formed by a couple of 8th grade stoners back in '84

[franchyspb]

I was going to ignore you the last time I saw your text, but since you keep writing about how much Ween sucks (which I think you think makes you look real cool, like an authentic Ween fan) I have to say something. If they really aren't any good, then why do so many people listen to their tunes. I first heard them in '91, and saw them shortly after that. I still listen and dig their music. What do you do, and what do you listen to Cool-guy? Are you in a band that covers Ween?

[95milkbone]

Thanks for posting this video WEEN ROCKS !

[kroovyandcal]

poopie poker. gotta love it

[platypusrex]

Dammit, I wanna hear the Bumblebee story.

[irlenman13]

haha me too, must be interesting.

[GretschG5120]

voodoo lady was the only good song

[GretschG5120]

he played the worst songs by ween...

[pcpsex]

the interviewer is a richard smoker. I would have liked to hear what they had to say if the questions wern't so lame.

[GeddyYeti2112]

It gets far worse than Fat Lenny.

[detectivesyme]

fat lenny is the best song ween's ever done. It's their fucking Stairway, you dumb shit.

[GeddyYeti2112]

I wasn't insulting the song, I was quoting from the interview.

[ferrk0099]

weed

[duppyconqueror08]

'yeah totally'...weeeeeN!

[gldmj55]

best christian rock band eva!

[MrJonpiersma]

christian are you out of your mind

[Lizardking2021]

@gldmj55 What kind of holy crack are you smoking??? This is a band that wrote "god ween satan" while huffing glade and scotch guard. . .

[Manitor]

I meant to see watching hundreds of Ween videos.

[Manitor]

I believe both Dean and Gene seem somewhat introverted. That is NOT an insult, just an observation deduced from watching hundreds of Ween albums.

[Dude421]

Sweet. 12 years old.

[kc7fys]

A shitty interview, yes. But it's mostly the host who has no idea what to do. He never just asks normal questions and brings the interview down to earth. It's like he can't organize his thoughts, and feels he needs to keep the interview "Wacky" because it's Ween. They are musicians and touring--there's plenty to talk about. What's the problem?

[thebluenun6982]

i cant believe how arrogant gene acts

[lanelouis]

hes allowed to, hes gene!

[bojethro]

i dont see him acting arrogant

[DaDazey]

Boognish high priest, what'd you expect??

[yamba]

he's not being serious

[gasserkarin]

tannubüüüüüüm

[thedead1212]

ween rules, but what a shitty interview

[foelfras]

ween....a creative inspired moment. Yes they are.

[Boojispud]

*Sigh* And ignore my comments, they were all replies to previous posts, but got stuck at the top.

[ruamonkeybum]

i love ween

[nodder1987]

what? this interview rules, that blonde bloke is an idiot, haha, burrr

[aceindaplace]

Ween is a truly great band and as I'm in Philly they are also local favorites to boot, but damn, that interview sucked! Could the be a bit more boring?

[punkwally]

I recdorded that show in Austin at Liberty Lunch (1996).

Thanks to their sound guy for letting me do it! Such a good album.

[captainsjam001]

I don't think they'll be singing in a church

[Jimmylocksmith]

I spoke to a girl in a pub down here in Melbourne, Australia who said she has got the Chocolate & Cheese belt!

[qpah]

Lies.

[Jimmylocksmith]

I'm lying or she is lying?

[yamba]

that's not the point.. The point is that some girl in a pub doesn't own that belt

[skankbowlfight]

they look so umcomfortable haha

[lostern]

[eskimoposh]

Shame man, I hope you recover from that stroke asap!

[charlotte240]

I followed the christian rock links on my church (Mother Mary of the Immaculate Fecal Consumption) webpage, and i got all brown and sweaty after i clicked on it. I went to their site and took a lissen. Thats how I found Ween. Ever since then, I loved ween and I'm trying to get them to play in my old church's basement for the easter holidays.

[onaheater]

Fuck where are radio stations that play ween? The only stations around me just play fucking pop crap bull shit

[OneFiveDoor]

Haha yeah this is the only station in Austin that will give you good music - Man if you ever are up early on Sunday morning you should check out the Chillville broadcast sometime from 9-12 at krox-com its the best radio ive ever heard.

[htownbrown]

nice video! they ate at taco cabana before the interview (assuming based on gene's cup). taco c doesn't have pollo asada. viva los ween!!!!!

[kingofkueens]

yeah, great music, i hear bannanas and blow makes you itch....rock on ween!

[Inyourhead420]

Watch them itch they are on heroin or oxycontin or maybe just really stoned. Good music so who cares.

[cedar688]

ok you ween reject! think your looking for the idiot cpmment panel. i agree with oldpat420...you dont know where you are.

[oldirtybanjo]

:)

[TheChacoGuy]

christain band? man you poop

[oldirtybanjo]

So, this is a Christian band, right?

[MonkeyphoneAlex]

fuck you

[ecdenton]

Not a christian band, but they do sing gospel music (look at the insert from God WEEN Satan!)

[mybloodyboognish]

ween is by far the coolest band ever...20 bucks for a 3 and a half hour show come on...who does that these days? i'll tell you who...NO ONE...KEEP ON ROCKIN IN THE BROWN WORLD!!!!!!!!!!

[Boojispud]

Weeeeeen do.

[anticoolguy00]

straight edge??? christian??? arent most the songs off THE MOLLUSK about drugs?..seems like it to me..

[emily11sings]

haze

[boognish1]

Baked.

[AtticusFinch23]

Too true dude. What's weird is that someone was filming it in the first place - see Ween on TV appearances and it's the whole biz. Still, vintage era Ween this, that country album is what made the connection 'tween Ween and South Park forever strong (it was Matt&Trey's idea). Push the little daisies, of course, but that's another thread somewhere...

[AtticusFinch23]

I think whatchagonado was taking the rise slightly...anyways, anyone else pick up on how much Ween thought that guy was a douche? I mean, fair play to him, he's sitting there across from his idols but let's face it. His nose is pretty brown by the end of it. (which wEen would be cool with..all that brown)

[Boojispud]

They did look pretty fed up towards the end.

[transparentradiation]

I want to know the Bumblebee story!

[szerle]

Yeah, what's the story?

[Whatchagonado]

ween is my favorite straight edge/christian rock band ever. great example for the yoot.

[Mylesaway181]

I don't think their a christian band. Have you ever heard their song "Let Me Lick Your Pussy". They don't strike me as a christian band.

[ETTTG]

hmmm...thanks

[marksaal]

Wow. Nothing gets past you.

[kpipkins214]

no,they ARE a christian band.theres at least 3 songs offa each album about jesus.....baby jesus.....they're also in the church band in their hometown.....

[oldpat420]

the lead singer is a JEW

a JEW. named AARON. not CHRISTIAN, a JEW. They even have a song called "israel" on shinola vol. 1

seriously, they do not have 3 songs on any album about jesus. i do not think i have even heard them say jesus once in any of their music. where do you get this?

[kpipkins214]

wow.....you bought that,huh?seriously?

[kpipkins214]

do you know sarcasm when you come across it?i think you do not

[kpipkins214]

youngpat WD40

[oldpat420]

you have found out the secret of my name. how dare you publicly release that information.

I am sueing you for damages and i hope you have a good lawyer because you, your children, and your childrens children will all have to work their entire lives to repay me. and if you dont got kids well force you ro fornicate to produce a child that can pay off your debts. see you in court!

[oldpat420]

no man i dont.

what is carsasim, is that drugs? where can i get some?

[theledzeppguy]

they mention Jesus in "Spinal Meningitis"

[oldpat420]

they have songs about smoking pot and having a "mushroom festival in hell" and about "bananas and blow". do you even know who ween is? do you? i think you do not.

[Boojispud]

XD There is the mention of Jesus in "Spinal Meningitis."

[drw0rm13]

I'd love to see the pep talk Mickey gives Aaron just before going in to a radio interview.

[LeoKrupps]

oh my god i love ween so much...

[hezadlux]

I love that they still have the same hair style . . .God help me I love WEEN

[minerva9274]

haha they always look like there trippin

[meng365]

hehe..love the ween...

[Dronedragon]

Cool interview.

Gener and Deaner look stoned out of their brains.

[girlfightplano]
