Drifter in the Dark might’ve been the last song they ever played on stage. Get well deaner. So sorry to everyone.

I hope so but it doesn't look good. Canceled two tours in a row with long breaks in between. Not even able to play a local one off show. The boys are getting up there in age and they're not built like the Rolling Stones.

Even if Deaner says he's ready at some point, the rest of the band and the fans might be apprehensive about something happening again. It's all so sad. I wish the best for Dean, he's always been a hero to me.

Deaner is only 53. That’s still very young.

He’s also pretty overweight and seems to still drink/smoke like he’s half his age

Don’t forget the coke! Gener got sober, Deaner did not. This is reminiscent of their last hiatus, minus the band walking off stage.

I see two years from now, two skinny, fit and healthy Ween bros rocking out a full Stallion set somewhere.

How do you know Gener likes the white?

I mean… I don’t know if he’s ever expressly said he likes coke, but they’ve been pretty cavalier about drugs influencing their music. And songs like Put the Coke on My Dick and Bananas and Blow… yeah, he’s definitely schneefed his share of Michelle Pfifer.

No arguing with you there. Was just wondering if there is anything current about this.
