It's (by far) their least attractive aspect.

We used to go see them a lot in the late 90s, early 2000s. It was funny to see the crowds shift after phish covered roses for free. Before it was definitely a more punk scene

There is no greater joy than rolling up in the middle school carpool line and seeing your child’s stricken face as she realizes that you are blasting Poopship Destroyer turned up to 11.

Ween crowds always seem to be an interesting assortment of weirdos. there's definitely a fratboy element to it but you can't really generalize with these folks. which makes sense because I do think they have wide appeal. I mean musically they're all over the map but as people I think they're pretty easy to identify with, like you can clearly track the way their lives and attitudes and how the very nature of their friendship changed from one album to the next and there's something very real about that. one of those bands where you kind of feel like you know them.

If anyone was around in ye olde ween.net forum days it was definitely more of an internet druggie and/or edgelord vibe than anything fratboy or jam band related.

I think I saw them at Tramps once in NYC it must’ve been 1996. They played a lot of songs I didn’t know too well. I mostly only fuck with the first three: GWS, The Pod and Pure Guava.

I feel like Chocolate and Cheese was their frat heyday. Stoned dudes in dorms … “he was head honcho with the ladies…”
