    I'm familiar with the entire Ween catalog and this is still the most surreal thing I've seen from Gener. Great Stuff.

    You cant do this w/o loving the subject of your tribute. You can tell he loves him. This is an inspiring tribute.

    Gene has BIG GIANT BALLS to get out there and perform this loving tribute to The Piano Man.
    He doesn't just do the easy ones he goes deep and gets down.
    Mr. FREEMAN you are and forever will be, A RULER!

    In junior high i listened to billy joels greatest hits and mix cds i made which happened to feature push the little daisies, voodoo lady, and mr. Would you please help my pony, exclusively. Never wouldve guessed my junior high taste was top tier. I just hope Billy Joel has Gener on his radar and it would be so cool if he digs Ween too! Fuck ya.

    This is Great! Billy Joel has just been slandered and black balled by all the grand poobae. It's nice to see this loving homage and tribute to the talent and legacy of a truly great man. In all honesty. I love ween and the gener better naturally but hey, who hasn't dug out on some of the piano mans shit?

    There should be more established acts doing tribute band shows. The further in the more Aaron is sounding like bjoel. He did pen some winners. I see he shied away from we did t start the fire. I suppose he had enough words to remember without adding another 15 or percent.
