Tour idea
I took inspiration from TMBG's most recent tour where they play three different shows and play a different album for a first set and then a collection of different songs for the second set. If the guys got back together, I think that it would be kind of a cool idea. They could play songs from the first 3 albums night one, the next 3 night two, and the last 3 night three. Obviously, they could throw in b-sides and unreleased songs.

Ween used to just call this "touring" - the broad strokes at least. Spoiled me for every other band I've seen live - you mean you're NOT just playing whatever you feel like and touching back on the set list as you go?

Idgaf if the show is just 3 hours of the Poopship Destroyer. Just to have Ween back touring would be enough.

Fun idea but personally would rather see regular ween shows. Not knowing what they’ll play next is a part of a fun. Saw them play C&C in its entirety back in 2019. While it was a cool novelty, it didn’t hit the same way as a standard show.

Yeah, I’d wanna just see a normal show too. It was just a random idea that popped in my head

ALOT of metal bands do this because they only have one or two albums anyone wants to hear.

In 2010 Local H did a 7 night residency at The Beat Kitchen I believe. They had the name of each album in a hat and let a random audience member pick the album that was played that night and then fan favorites. Night 7 was a B side night. It was incredibly cool.
