1.) I've already been up for three hours by this point. 2.) I go from asleep to full speed in about twenty minutes, so it's never too early for most music. 3.) When I have already listened to Genghis Tron this morning, Daughters isn't as crazy.
EDIT: I think its wrong to recommend one song to hear what "ween is all about", as there are just too many great and varied songs, but if I had to recommend just one version of one song to encapsulate the Ween experience, I could do a lot worse than recommending the version of "The Grobe" on Live In Chicago. Playing totally in the pocket, great vocal performance from Gener, lyrics both heartbreaking and disgusting at the same type, and every other second a screaming Deaner guitar solo.
EDIT2: but if you are going to listen to The Grobe which is the second track you might as well start with track one and listen to Take Me Away. Can't hurt hang out for the weirdness of Transdermal Celebration at track 3 and the awesome piano intro from GLENN MCCLELLAND into more heartbreak with Even If You Don't. At that point might as well go full on into brown town with a rocking rendition of Voodoo Lady, before going "full Ween" into the HIV Song. After that hopefully you'll be stunned enough to slip into the "angry Beatles" ween of "Baby Bitch", then you are ready to cruise the land of the brave and free with "Roses Are Free", back to disgust with "Mutilated Lips", and at that point you need to hear one of Ween's finest song writing efforts IMO "Chocolate Town", after that its kind of hard to stop > "I'll Be Your Johnny on the Spot" into one of the best show opening songs of all time "Buckingham Green", and uh-oh, we're "full ween" again with a lil' blues number "Spinal Meningitis Got Me Down", feed your hunger with a "Pork Roll Egg and Cheese" into another personal favorite of mine, the wonder and all seeing eye of "The Argus". Then Zoloft you can skip because its dumb, wrap up with the most singly Ween song (but kickass) "Ocean Man".

When I was in college my roommates and I crashed at my parents house for Beale street music fest. We stayed up late after getting home one night watching the live in Chicago DVD in a big playroom next to my 14 year old sister's room. The next day she told my mom we kept her up all night "being really loud and listening to weird scary music about AIDS"
Are my ribbons tied? Is my hair in place? Have I got a cute expression on my face? Are my shoes all shined? I try to keep in line when I'm dancing in the show tonight
Liking this new one more than Sunbather. Really want to catch the upcoming Deafheaven/Tribulation show, but might be difficult since it's a free show. If I'm working, no way I'll be able to get their early enough to get in. Fingers crossed I'm not working!
