buzz osborne also talks about this but he talks about it like "you can play anything you want as long as it works in the context that you're setting for yourself, 100% of the time guaranteed"
“The guy who taught me guitar taught me one lesson... always play the guitar below your D1ck or above your D1ck like George Harrison, never ON your D1ck.” - Dean Ween, Guitar Moves interview ruclips.net/video/fU9fTmTsssA/видео.html
ViktorVaughn Every Dean ween solo, he says it in the Guitar Moves interview. I think he was just trying to downplay how good he actually is, his playing goes beyond that.
I love the video. This guitarist is pretty well versed in music, and most of everything they do is intentional. You can find a song from ween that fits basically any genre of the last 70 years.
There's a word used to describe the 'mistakes' that Ween makes, its Brown... My understanding is that its based on vibe, and playing fully in the moment, you mess up, but move past it furiously. There's a Jimmy Page-Ness to it.
💯 and that’s why you’ll never hear Ween fans complain about missed notes or which version of Tear for Eddie was better, it’s literally all good in Chocolate town. I soured on Phish for this reason, there’s just too many self professed music critics in the crowd.
Saw Ween in 96-97ish. Played a show where Gene was blackout drunk on Tequila. Stopped the show 40 minutes in. Came back to the same club 6 months later and crushed it for over 3 hours straight. Crazy band. Give Ol’ Queen Cole a ride!
I was born listening to Ween. But I know no one who appreciates them the same way me and my old man do. Thanks for keeping them relevant and ALL HAIL THE BOOGNISH!
Chocolate and Cheese gets as much play time in my house as American Beauty, maybe even more. And I must say bassist Dave Dreiwitz has the two best gigs ever, playing for both Ween and JRAD.
WeatherBoy OGs been my RUclips and Xbox handle for years now and you’re the first person to get the reference. Where do I send the autographed football 🏈
I live about half an hour from New Hope, PA. I went to John and Peter's on a friends tip that Dean's jam band plays every Wednesday. I got to meet Dean and even sing with him for a Johnny Cash and Stones song. Now that was before I started playing guitar, they do take people who can play from the audience sometimes. Can't wait to go back and actually jam with him this time! Great dude inside and out.
He also did buckingham green from live in Chicago in one of his live streams (my suggestion 😊) he live streams for four hours on Tuesdays (?) where he takes live requests from the comments section.
I always get recommended your videos and never bite because most reaction videos on YT are cheesy and way over embellished but I've been on a Ween kick and thought I would give this one a shot. I am so glad I did you are a fantastic teacher, laying out the chord progression and explaining what Dean was playing was a great exercise and I will definitely be watching more of your videos. I was not expecting the great tips and analysis!
Ween is another one of those groups that you really need to listen to their entire catalog, or at least three albums, to fully understand. White Pepper is probably the best album to introduce a new person, but there’s a lot of crazy gems on their other stuff.
White Pepper is great but I would venture La Cucaracha because it is clean and has a flavor of all their talent. Shinola is my favorite to have someone who is interested just dig in.
@@TheEndangeredsouls the Pod I first saw them when they toured that album. Mind bending lowfi shows. It was just so weird I went from Jacksonville to Orlando to Tampa just to make sure what I had just heard was really what was supposed to be heard.
Good luck snagging Deener, Michael..!! Hope you can, coz I'd love to see that. No doubt you're aware that 'Tear for Eddie' is from 1994..!! Mickey Melchiondo is probably the greatest modern guitarist, and most people don't know about him.
It’s crazy how many amazing tunes they have that aren’t on their studio albums. I constantly listen to stuff like Things You Already Know, Ambrosia Parsley, The Rainbow, Ooh Vah La, Kim Smoltz and Booze Me Up and Get Me High. And I agree: Caesar is such an amazing collection of tracks!
I strongly recommend listening to more tracks from the Live In Chicago show. The recording quality is so great, and Ween songs take on such a different character when they're done live. The older recordings were very rough, it was the two of them only with a 4-track backing them. It's amazing to hear the live versions and go back to what they came from, realizing it's the same song at it's core, but just so much more fleshed out and full with the whole band backing them.
Glad to see you walking down the ween catalogue! So many gems so little time! And now you know how committed the fans are too! Thnx for doing these fun even for a non guitar player! Praise boognish
You wanna lose your mind and feel like you've switched dimensions...listen to 12 Golden Country Greats by Ween. The lyrics juxtaposed against solid old-school country foundations is just FUN!
He is a secret monster of a guitarist. I got into them decades ago and saw past the goof to the pure talent they have. What’s great is he finds a pocket and goes for it. Eric Clapton once said something to this effect on soloing, “It doesn’t matter if its not right, if it sounded good once, play it over and over again”! Another one from Eric Clapton was like, “If you mess up but repeat it, no one will think it was a mess up”. Hahahahahahahahaha so true
Thank you for putting a spotlight on Ween. I’ve been using them as the soundtrack to my life for almost 25 years and always thought they never got the attention they deserve. You’re awesome, man.
This video completely goes against that line many of us know - 'No talking during a Tear for Eddie'... But this is simply a kickass review of a kickass song, so the Boognish forgives 🙌
So glad you found your way back to Ween. I had to share your friend's description of them from your Transdermal Celebration video with a few friends. It was spot on! Thanks for running the giveaway! I am definitely GASing for my first hollow body and PRS right now.
Check out their live at stubbs album. Its a great intro tk the band. Also plenty or great quality sound bootlegs available for free on browntracker and archive.org. My favorites are 10/3/2003 vancouver 2017 sweetwater 420 fest 1997 zurich 1996 country sampler Rotten cheese
Have only gotten into Ween recently and really digging them. Listening to Maggot Brain now and realizing that Tear For Eddie is basically Dean's version of Maggot Brain. Both are SO GOOD!
It's a wonderful rabbit hole that i fell down in the early 90s.. pre apocalypse we did a tribute a few times a year. Love this band. Broomfield changed my world
thanks for sticking with Ween! like i said the first time, i really have no clue about the technical "theory" side of their music (i guess i'm more of an "emotional resonance" guy), but it's so fun to see someone appreciate their music on this level!
Love your positivity and the natural feeling you have for music Michael. Especially great to see a first time look at a ween song. I'm a huge ween fan so it's a real buzz! More power to you
Dude I love your channel. The positive attitude and excitement for music and life in general is something I look forward to watching each time you post. Keep rocking my friend.
Deaner plays a wide variety of styles in his guitar work outs. Of course there’s heavy rock: Johnny on the Spot has the most wailing, breakneck improvised solo, Dr. Rock is supreme hard-rock majesty, Stroker Ace and It’s Gonna Be a Long Night (Motörhead rip) are rippers. Gabrielle is a rave-up Thin Lizzy rip-off. Epic progrock replete w scripted solos: Buckingham Green, The Golden Eel. Latin/Caribbean mock-rock- Voodoo Lady, Bananas and Blow (Buffet slag). Groovy up-tempo folk rock- Chocolate Town all have great scripted solos. Then there’s the pure weirdness of The Grobe, Happy Colored Marbles, Polka Dot Tail, etc. So many more but these are some of his signature concert moments.
keep up the good work - I came here (Transdermal Celebration video first) as a Ween fan trying to learn how to play Ween songs but found your comments on theory and the thought process behind the playing to be really insightful. Checking out Guitargate now. Keep up the good work! Oh, and just listening to the final second of the video - you just reached 100k subscribers in June and now over 200k?! Wow~ Keep rocking' bud! Killer!
I just stumbled across your videos and Wow. I haven't heard Ween in years. I stumbled across Ween in the early 90s and I just found their music to be sooo mellow. It's great music to drive to if you are on a long drive and by yourself or with Ween fans. I had no idea there was a pattern to the music. I just remember how it flows. Joe Satriani would be my all time favorite though. Surfing with the Alien and Always with me, Always with You are my most favorite songs after all these years.
Hey, I had a dream the other night where we talked about this video. Quite moving! I’m a long time ween fan and love this tune. Got an extra ticket to 10/30 and 10/31 for Ween in Denver. If you haven’t seen them in person, it’s next level. Let me know, Michael, if you want to come to Denver later this month.

"If you're gonna miss, miss big." - Deaner
I do it daily
no hesitation if its wrong make it right
buzz osborne also talks about this but he talks about it like "you can play anything you want as long as it works in the context that you're setting for yourself, 100% of the time guaranteed"
13:47 And that good sir, is Brown.
@@drgonzo3020 hahaha
Deaner.... possibly the most underrated guitarist of our time. Ween, a true treasure
A genuine hidden gem.
Hall Boognish
Scott Murawski ?
Best shows I've ever been to.
Agreed.
The irony:
Dean is just like, “I dunno, I just play the right notes.”
I discovered Ween through your Transdermal Celebration video and now they’re one of my favorite bands!
That's what it's all about!!
Michael Palmisano Thanks again!! It would be awesome if you reviewed Chocolate Town from Live in Chicago. The solo is incredibly tasteful.
Well then, it's time for you to sit back and enjoy Live at Stubbs. Don't forget the encore! ruclips.net/video/GZOkRhufCrA/видео.html
Monkstar1 is giving some great advice. Listen to Live at Stubbs. It's amazing.
I’d give anything to be in your shoes, discovering WEEN for the first time. Enjoy the ride!

Deaner is grossly underrated as a guitarist. Thanks for exposing Ween to a new audience
Deaner said every solo is Dickey Betts or Maggot Brain.
Was that every Dean Ween solo? Or just literally every solo ever lol
ViktorVaughn Every Dean ween solo, he says it in the Guitar Moves interview. I think he was just trying to downplay how good he actually is, his playing goes beyond that.
@@cloudshad0ws He was just being humble, IMO. Dude's a class act. It was a cool interview.
blue sky.
Think they said Santana too
Buckingham Green is a must listen. The solo is the stuff of legend
played waaaay below the dick on the chicago live dvd, down at his damn ankles lol
SUMMON THE QUEEN!
@@LorenSwendsen spoke the child of eyes
Cat n the cradle being the brownest version.
find the public access cable set they did it is probably the best video
Dude ween is the greatest band ever
@@dques your choice if you're going to stop listening to a great band because they sell a face mask but sounds petty to me.
Fax
@@dqueswhy are you going on every ween related video posting the link of your worthless video none cares bro. So desperate for attention Haha
Hail Boognish
I love the video. This guitarist is pretty well versed in music, and most of everything they do is intentional. You can find a song from ween that fits basically any genre of the last 70 years.
A tear for Eddie is one of the most moving instrumentals I’ve ever come across.
Eddie Hazel was 42 when he died in 1992. #83 on Rolling Stones top 100 guitarists.
Oh. Thats who eddie is. Never knew!
There's a word used to describe the 'mistakes' that Ween makes, its Brown... My understanding is that its based on vibe, and playing fully in the moment, you mess up, but move past it furiously. There's a Jimmy Page-Ness to it.
Yup. I'm picking up on it. And I fully subscribe to it.
Its playing the wrong notes in the right way
💯 and that’s why you’ll never hear Ween fans complain about missed notes or which version of Tear for Eddie was better, it’s literally all good in Chocolate town.
I soured on Phish for this reason, there’s just too many self professed music critics in the crowd.
Also referred to as a “taster”
@@klingstuh I'm a fan of the "Frap"
I love that you're getting into ween. Paint the town brown mang
He's probably fishing. You can hire him for a charter an interview him then. Man loves to fish.
Les Claypool is into fishing himself. Aren’t he and Deaner pals?
@@crescentfreshbret yeah, there’s a video somewhere of him, les, and ler jamming.
Yes, they are great friends
Saw Ween in 96-97ish. Played a show where Gene was blackout drunk on Tequila. Stopped the show 40 minutes in. Came back to the same club 6 months later and crushed it for over 3 hours straight. Crazy band. Give Ol’ Queen Cole a ride!
I hope Deaner comes on the channel, I'd love to see those two nerd out for a bit.
I was born listening to Ween. But I know no one who appreciates them the same way me and my old man do. Thanks for keeping them relevant and ALL HAIL THE BOOGNISH!
We are legion
Chocolate and Cheese gets as much play time in my house as American Beauty, maybe even more. And I must say bassist Dave Dreiwitz has the two best gigs ever, playing for both Ween and JRAD.
I'm thinking the same thing.
I am ridiculously jealous of DD's gigs but hes totally earned them.
Rodney Junior DD never stops smiling, that’s what I love about him.
moistboyz reference
WeatherBoy OGs been my RUclips and Xbox handle for years now and you’re the first person to get the reference. Where do I send the autographed football 🏈
Ween is one of my all time favorite bands. It's very heartwarming to see them getting some attention from a youtube personality I admire.
Deaner is not only one the best guitarist of all time, but he might just also be one of the coolest and funniest dudes of all time !
"The quality of the audio is a little off, here."
That's the best way to listen to Ween. It's another shade of brown
I live about half an hour from New Hope, PA. I went to John and Peter's on a friends tip that Dean's jam band plays every Wednesday. I got to meet Dean and even sing with him for a Johnny Cash and Stones song. Now that was before I started playing guitar, they do take people who can play from the audience sometimes. Can't wait to go back and actually jam with him this time! Great dude inside and out.
If I may be so bold as to speak on the behalf of the entire Ween community...
You're welcome.
Xoxo
"weird and wild band that defies description" is the best description of Ween I've ever heard of.
Really is
Ween might be the most underrated band of all time while in the running for greatest band of all time. Truly a paradox.
Ween: Your favorite band's favorite band
I hope Dean gets back to you. He really is a pretty amazing player. Thank you for digging into Ween.
Oh man, I love Ween so much. I was hoping to see some of their stuff on your channel. :)
this is the 2nd one. so look for the 1st one. Transdremal Celebration
He also did buckingham green from live in Chicago in one of his live streams (my suggestion 😊) he live streams for four hours on Tuesdays (?) where he takes live requests from the comments section.
Also, Deaner is cool af and accessible to fans. I bet he'll come on here
I met that cat at a panic show years ago on the lawn in NC.
WEEN crew checking in! Keep them coming. We roll deep. Hail Boognish
It makes me so happy to watch someone become a ween fan. It makes me feel like I did when I discovered them
That smile... you see that smile a lot at Ween shows. New and old fans alike.
I always get recommended your videos and never bite because most reaction videos on YT are cheesy and way over embellished but I've been on a Ween kick and thought I would give this one a shot.

I would say go Choc n cheese, mollusk, and then pod
I agree with White Pepper as an album pick for introduction - that's my go to for luring in the skeptics.
White Pepper is great but I would venture La Cucaracha because it is clean and has a flavor of all their talent. Shinola is my favorite to have someone who is interested just dig in.
@@bryansnaylor La cucaracha was disappointing tbh
@@TheEndangeredsouls the Pod I first saw them when they toured that album. Mind bending lowfi shows. It was just so weird I went from Jacksonville to Orlando to Tampa just to make sure what I had just heard was really what was supposed to be heard.

The best thing about ween is 10 years later I'm still finding new favorite songs from them. Caesar is near my favorite "album" now
It’s crazy how many amazing tunes they have that aren’t on their studio albums.
I constantly listen to stuff like Things You Already Know, Ambrosia Parsley, The Rainbow, Ooh Vah La, Kim Smoltz and Booze Me Up and Get Me High.

MY DINNER’S ON FIRE WHILE SHE WATCHES TV
Listen..... on the Porch.
It's nice to see Ween get some props from a musician who doesn't know them well. These videos are super interesting.
Ill be your Johnny on the spot from live in chicacgo has a solo that will melt your face.
Yesssss glad you're digging ween. Boognish changed my life

One thing you will learn right quick is that the Ween fandom loves anyone who loves Ween.

Thanks for running the giveaway! I am definitely GASing for my first hollow body and PRS right now.
I feel sorry for people who don't know Ween.
Dude, your face when you're touched by the sound of brown, i felt that! Deep joy xx
Ok... Ween - I'll be look'in them up. Like it!
Check out their live at stubbs album. Its a great intro tk the band. Also plenty or great quality sound bootlegs available for free on browntracker and archive.org.

Welcome ! Enjoy your Journey ! Check videos of them as a duo(live wetlands) ...they were amazing to see live
best live band of all time.
Have only gotten into Ween recently and really digging them. Listening to Maggot Brain now and realizing that Tear For Eddie is basically Dean's version of Maggot Brain. Both are SO GOOD!
"Does it sound cool? If it doesn't, just keep doing it, it'll get cooler."
That's actually such good advice
Your understanding of the guitar and the keys of the language of music is amazing. Bravo my good friend
It's a wonderful rabbit hole that i fell down in the early 90s.. pre apocalypse we did a tribute a few times a year. Love this band. Broomfield changed my world
Hey man! I just started watching your lessons, and I've also just been discovering ween, so this is doubly awesome! Thank you for what you do.
Gotta dig that bit at about 18:55 where Deaner expertly displays how to solo with the guitar "down around your ankles."
thanks for sticking with Ween! like i said the first time, i really have no clue about the technical "theory" side of their music (i guess i'm more of an "emotional resonance" guy), but it's so fun to see someone appreciate their music on this level!
When I saw this pop up on my feed I got super stoked. Thank you! This is my favorite Ween song.
Ya baby more ween!

YES!!! do “Mister Would You Please Help My Pony” next please!!!
Yes! It's Deaners favorite
This is great, keep doing these Ween reacts!
I've been watching your videos for a while, even bought your course, and you have no idea how happy it makes me that you have become a Ween fanboy
MORE WEEN!
Hell yeah WEEEEEEEEN! Subscribed
Eddie was 42 when he passed
Deaner plays a wide variety of styles in his guitar work outs. Of course there’s heavy rock: Johnny on the Spot has the most wailing, breakneck improvised solo, Dr. Rock is supreme hard-rock majesty, Stroker Ace and It’s Gonna Be a Long Night (Motörhead rip) are rippers. Gabrielle is a rave-up Thin Lizzy rip-off.
Epic progrock replete w scripted solos: Buckingham Green, The Golden Eel.
Latin/Caribbean mock-rock- Voodoo Lady, Bananas and Blow (Buffet slag).
Groovy up-tempo folk rock- Chocolate Town all have great scripted solos.
Then there’s the pure weirdness of The Grobe, Happy Colored Marbles, Polka Dot Tail, etc. So many more but these are some of his signature concert moments.
love the ween stuff! thanks for more!
Been waiting for this one!!!
Wow this guy is good
The thing about Ween is that they don't have fans. They have followers. ALL PRAISE THE BOOGNISH!
MIGHTY BOOGNISH!
that big ass smile on your face is what ween is all about. incredulous is the name of the game
Well done. Great insight. Good knowledge. Whoever picked this version of tear for eddie was spot on. Wonderful song.
I love that band so much, great video man.
"If it doesn't sound cool, just keep doing it.. it will get cooler." Hahaha!! Love it!!!
Thanks man. Fantastic.
the Deaner episode of Guitar Moves is great
Deaner don’t know all that fancy cord talk, fella just shreds.
Woohooo, Michael. Thanks a ton for this! WEEN!!!!
Deaners aggressive vibrato comes from years and years of beatin the meat
Great video, dude. keep on doing this kind of stuff, bro. (I just started studying music theory lately, I find your contents very helpful.)
You should check out the Argus from Quebec. I believe it"s their masterpiece.
I agree, random internet stranger I don't know in real life
Yes! Thank you for giving some attention to the magic of ween.
Thanks for ween
Im glad you are bringing more people to Ween. It's always a delight watching someone discover Ween!
There is a great live version of this from the 90s in their hometown at a bowling alley. Very low key whole album show.
Nice to see we have yet another ween fan in the making
