They'll obviously be tapes. I'd be surprised if it didn't get an official release. They're doing this cause they need money, right?

If they released this as an $100 9-disc boxset I would buy it no questions asked

Wow, sounds like they're going all out, I'm super curious to see footage of these shows. It sounds like they're being announced for more and more US festivals as well which is cool.

It would be amazing if they came back to Australia. I can always hope.

One of the few bands I would travel interstate to see in order to go to multiple gigs if they only did the one in Melbourne.

Oh man, if footage with good audio quality was released I would be over the moon.

I really appreciate Ween as a live band because they are more rock-y live but still great. Their Live In Chicago versions of Roses Are Free and Spinal Meningitis are fantastic yet very tonally different.

Agreed. I was living in Melbourne when they last toured, but now I would happily fly interstate for the show.

Probably a good thing. When I was a kid my mom somehow got it into my head that drugs make people fat. I was at an arcade shortly after that and saw an old kid from my neighborhood. He had gained a bunch of weight so my natural assumption was that he was a massive drug fiend.

Three days to go!

I'm flying out tomorrow afternoon and ready to have some fun in advance of the show. We'll be doing some brewery tours, bar hopping and store shopping.

Your wife is A-Okay then. My wife will be at home with our three young kids (I'm very thankful to have such a wonderful wife). Some nice flowers will be delivered Sunday in my absence.

Claude did an interview about the shows:

http://www.westword.com/music/common-loving-sense-trumps-ego-exclusive-with-claude-coleman-of-ween-7589761

“We’re doing so much rehearsal work, overcoming a lot of emotional strife, drama…wading through a pond of poo to get to the flowery meadow under a blue sky and open sun. That moment when we’ll walk out, everything will be love and magic, and, yeah, I imagine there’ll be an ovation for like twenty minutes. Which will be intense. It’ll bury all the bullshit; it’ll squash everything and anything else there is, and we’ll be under a roar of love and appreciation that you can’t walk away from or pretend to be unaffected by.”

You're god damned right there will be a massive ovation. The crowd is going to go absolutely out of their minds when the band steps on the stage.

That setlist is missing a few songs. After Laura was Zoloft then Doctor Rock. And the encore was Pollo Asado and Demon Sweat.

Show was incredible, I've seen Ween over 20 times and that was definitely one of the best I've seen from them. Sound in that arena is atrocious, but they overcame that to put on an amazing show anyway.

That was quite the romantic set they played last night.

Edit: I haven't listened to V-day yet, but Saturday night was a beast. I was pretty cynical about the reunion, but they seem to actually be having fun. Hope they plow through and keep going.
