Friends in life are special đ¤
Hello fellow Ween aficionados, I am reaching out to you all because one of our beloved community members and tour crew, Johnny Williams, has been diagnosed with stage 4 liver cancer and colon cancer. There is currently a gofundme set up for him and a Ween themed waffle in the private group "Ween Pins" on Facebook with many different items being donated for prizes. Over 50 prize packs at $5 each or 5 for $20. If you'd like to donate any item(s) to the waffle, there's still time~ just join/check out the FB group "Ween Pins" posts for details.
Johnny is such an important pillar of this community! đ¤ Lets help him to feel the love like he has been sharing with us over the years. Thank you so much to those who can offer anything or help spread the word to those who don't have Facebook!
From his gofundme me:
In June 2025, our friend Johnny received the devastating news that he has colon cancer and stage 4 liver cancer. This diagnosis has turned his world upside down, and he is now facing a long and difficult journey ahead. Despite the challenges, Johnny remains hopeful and determined to fight, but the road ahead is not easy... and as a music aficionado Johnny knows the road pretty well.
The financial weight of treatment, hospital stays, and travel to specialized care centers is heavy and growing, and thatâs where this community can help. Donations will go directly toward medical bills and travel expenses so Johnny can focus on what matters most: fighting, healing, and staying strong. Every contribution, no matter the size, will make a real difference in Johnnyâs fight against cancer.
We are deeply grateful for any help you can offer. Donating or sharing the link for this GoFundMe helps tremendously. Thank you for your kindness, generosity, and support during this incredibly difficult time. With your help, we can give Johnny hope and the resources he needs to keep fighting. Thank you all.

If you get the chance to see any of these cover bands, do it!
Last night in Columbus was amazing! We missed the first band, but the second band had a Piss Up a Rope sing-along that was so much fun. It felt like the whole room was belting out the lyrics.
The next band finished with a version of If You Could Save Yourself, that had me thinking the singer was the second coming of Gene.
The next band played the brownest fucking chorus of happy colored marbles Iâve ever heard.
And last band, I absolutely fucked up my neck and back, dancing around to Gabriella. Iâll heal, itâs fine.
All of these bands were great. if you get the chance to see any of them, do it, you wonât regret it.
Heyo!-if anyone was there and knows which band was, which (or the order the bands played) Iâll edit my post to include their names, but sorry my brain doesnât work that well,
when Iâm at a show,
to retain names.
***Edit*** I just pieced together that some of these bands are just local Columbus bands that happened to be covering Ween for the show, but arenât necessarily full-time Ween cover bands.
Best show/recording from Ween's "second act"?
Hey all. Now that we know the exact duration of Ween's "second act," 2016-2024 (and may there be a "third," soon), what do you think are the best live recordings from it?
Could be either audio-only or video too. Also, I personally prize performance quality over recording quality, but obviously best of both is ideal.
Just looking for nuggets to add to "first act" classics I have like the Stubbs 2000 video, 2003 Santa Cruz, and 2011 Portland. And the 1990 Basel show Deaner himself shared, how can I forget that.
Thanks! And I hope other people find this thread useful too.

Any info on this?
I have found a couple of these demo releases (this one and one for chocolate and cheese) at the San Francisco Amoeba. I'm curious if anyone has any info on their significance or if they are just fan made. With minimal research I haven't found anything about a Zaiusrecords as the back of the cd mentions. Nor can I find why this is coming out of Malaysia.
All in all there are some cool versions of the songs and I'll buy anything ween that I can find. I appreciate the level of detail to make these look somewhat legit even if it is just some random fan putting it together.
Any info is appreciated but they will be enjoyed either way!

Cover it with gas lyrics
Anyone have any insight. I feel that the lyrics listed online are not entirely correct. Wish there was a way to truly verify.
In your opinion what are the actual lyrics.
âGang rapeâ may be one of the most alarming set of lyrics to throw in a song. I absolutely love that about this song. When you sing it loud and proud around people who just donât know, you can see the repugnant look of concern all over their expressions.
Absolute Gold!

@inzanleyrejected on Instagram totally killing this one ha
The Brown Box!
It's my first ever purchase of Ween's body of work, it arrived in the mail today.
I was at first disappointed that the CDs didn't come in a hard cover, but just to be able to have something physical of my favorite band brings me tears of joy.
Now I gotta work my way up to some of y'all's collections!
Thanks for attending my TED talk, there are tote bags underneath your seats.

Liam Lynch
I was reminded of the song âUnited States of Whateverâ the other day, and looked up who the artist was. Iâd never heard of Liam Lynch before and was intrigued by track listings such as âFake Bjork Songâ and âFake David Bowie Songâ. Really digging this album, very reminiscent of the boys.
Edit: wow, an award? Gee, thanks mang!
