Hope you feel better soon prayers and best wishes for your physical and mental health. Health problems really suck and dealing with the insurance companies and all the doctors is even worse. I have been trying to cope with them for half my life and they are bigger headaches than the health problems almost. Good luck and honestly the best relief I have found for both the physical and especially the mental pain and agony and stress and frustration has been good music like Ween. Good luck and I hope everything gets better.
Ever since that Matt Sweeny "Guitar Moves" series, I've hoped for something more from the shack. Like, it just seems like such a cool place to hang out.
As a medical professional I agree with what Dean says. Taking simple steps to take of yourself makes a HUGE difference in quality of life. Great advice.
This is why Deaner is my favorite lead guitar player ever! This guy is the shit folks! Rarely do we get a guitar god that's been around since the 80s , consumed the amounts of drugs he has done and still be normal enough to function on this level. Deaner is a real person not fake fuck not stuck on himself. This guy is genuine and truly a good hearted soul. Normal everyday guy that has been touched by the guitar gods and lucky enough to make it to the bigs. To make my favorite guitar player the candidate has to have more than skills at the fretboard they need to be genuine and a good person. Dean Ween #1
25+ year ween fan here and this is the first time i've heard mickey speak like a human. i'm used to hearing him talk in beavis & butthead one-liners all the time, which are funny and cool. but this was very nice to see/hear. also, good luck with your "lymes disease"
WOW... This has got me of such divine emotional value. SO MANY TEARS WELLED IN THE EYES... Truly a gift to this world!!! Needed to know this so BADLY, will keep in mind when the times are a coming. So so sweet, THANK YOU for the share, wishing ONLY the best, only, only. If i had lymes disease i would Not Be Surprise
What’s up Deaner. Man I’m in my mid fifties And not a week goes by that I’m not still rocking WEEN many ween shows and memories for life....... As a songwriter they never stopped blowing my mind...
Best Quest Diagnostics commercial ever! Paid my way through college working in the Teterboro Central Supply warehouse back when Quest was Metpath. Hope you’re feeling better!
@@l6318 Yeah, I was afraid I wasn’t gonna get picked. Ween is hands down my favorite band, and it’s also been a few years since I’ve gotten to see Primus (I love all of the bands Les Claypool is involved with). Sorry you didn’t get picked. Hope you get a chance to catch them elsewhere!
Question brother / sister : will that red rocks show be heavy on primus and ween originals ? More of a primus ween guy than a South Park guy and my worry is that it will be a lotttt of South Park shit
Keep an eye out for the little miracles most def! I was super depressed one day rode my bike passed this random fat dude in swim trunks when it was super cold out he was practicing martial arts with numb chucks by himself on the river. Way inspiring. Just do your thing. You know...
They’re BOTH really down to earth. I hung out with Mickey and Aaron back in 02-03’ cause they used to come to Athens, GA which is a big music town (REM, B-52’s, Widespread Panic, etc all discovered in Athens) there’s a venue called “the 40 watt” which was perfect size for them back then (before their shows started reeking of patchouly oil) and they would just park their tour bus there for days, so me and a friend got of half onion of Dank (pot was still very much illegal everywhere) and We ended up smoking half the satchel and having a DEEP discussion of The Allman Bros. And how Dickey Betts is a legend on the guit-fiddle (redneck for guitar). True story! We didn’t have digital cameras in our pockets, so back then you just asked for autographs. They even let me come back that next morning before they went up the coast and Deaner (Mickey. The guy in the video) signed my 94’ Stratocaster. It’s an American made FatStrat which just means it has a dual-coil pickup by the bridge for screaming tones. They were so easy to talk to. They would shut down any kind of ego stroking. Then the hippies came. Phish covered “Roses are free”, and the hippies started coming to shows en mass. (Search for a song called “hippie smell”. That’s what it’s about. The patchouly oil stench that suddenly appeared at their shows, (per Gene & Dean Ween)
@@cheesandwichfactory ok, man. I’m going by a conversation from 20 years ago conducted in an altered state of consciousness. We discussed the hippie influx on their bus though, and the aroma they brought. Maybe I’m not remembering it exactly. The records in question were only 3 years apart (The Oneness 91 and C&C in 94’) Also, freedom of 76’ was written WAY before C&C was released, cause they played it on a talk show. I’m probably missing something. Maybe they were making a joke? Regardless, I got to chill with them on their bus at “the 40 watt” in Athens GA, and I honestly don’t need you to sign off on that. (No offense intended, hopefully none taken)
@@chichifroglegsboognish1434 I got in EARLY! They sell out an entire weekend of shows in Atlanta every tour. No more bribing your way on the bus with “goodies”. 😂. Cheers 🍻 sister!
All ya had to say was Athens... oh the days of road trips to the 40watt and North Carolina’s cats cradle Still rock ATHENS GA Inside/out on vhs/dvd as midnight movie.... Great times..thanks for the memories ......
Hey Pat from Newfoundland. We gave u guys a ceramic elephant like 21 years ago in Boston. You used it in your show and it made our road trip an epic road trip. Thanks for that. Makes for an epic story too…which I still tell often!
I've been recovering from Babesiosis, a tick borne disease that left me unable to get out of bed for months. It damn near killed me. Yes! If you have undiagnosed neurolgical symptoms, have a history of tick exposure and have the ability to acquire IGENEX testing, I would suggest it. Diagnosis and treatment are possible, but most regular physicians said that I was fine or mentally ill. Their doubt about broke me. Damnit Deaner, I know that this is over a year old, but I hope that you are doing better. Thank you to whoever posted this.
"Future trippin'" Never heard that one before but I get it. Gotta stop all the future trippin'! Thanks Dean and whomever hooked this up. We're all on this crazy ride together!
The Deaner pulls thru with the nugget I needed to hear on the day we bury my cousins 8 yr old daughter. Luv ya mate. Ur brother from the hemisphere below.
A few months ago a girl I cared very much for broke up with me and I felt like my world was falling apart. Found this video the next day. I desperately needed this
Thank you for the inspiration. I love the guitar lessons and experimenting with the different tunings. sharing that I am not the only one dealing with that loop in my head. My dog walk's totally help.
