Band No. 1: Ween

Friday we'll split our time between Ween and Death Cab for Cutie. April hates Ween, but we both love Death Cab. It's only fair to miss half of one show to make my better half happy.
Ween is a duo of serious weirdos/pill-poppers from Philly with extreme muscial talent. To say they have a cult following is the same as saying 'Star Wars' has a few fans. Ween turns the world "Brown" with seriously rocked out jams with punk rock attitude but grace as well. They also aren't afraid of making fun of everything in the world. For their "12 Golden Country Hits" album (which only has 10 tracks btw) they hired a bunch of top notch Nashville talent to record a 'serious' twangy album. Only the lyrics ripped into the fake country scene "Japanese Cowboy," ex-girlfriends in "Piss Up a Rope" and the dogs in cowboy songs with "Fluffy."
"Chocolate and Cheese" is a fantastic album with some great funk, instrumental and pop tracks along with another solid ex-girlfriend song in "Baby Bitch" and a stab at consumerism in "Roses are Free."
My top Ween suggested albums / tracks that will turn your day Brown ...
• "12 Golden Country Hits" - "Piss up a Rope," "Japanese Cowboy"
