Ween

“Aaron and I filmed this one ourselves and played the song live. Probably the only good video we ever made.”

In 1984, Dean and Gene Ween (Mickey Melchiondo and Aaron Freeman) met in their 8th grade typing class. They started playing music together and called themselves Ween from the very first day. Ween broke up in 2012 after 25 years of togetherness. Aaron quit the band to keep himself sober. “I can only speak for myself, but as far as I’m concerned, as long as Aaron and I are both alive on this planet, Ween is still together. We’ve never broken up. The idea of quitting is just laughable. This isn’t something you can quit. This is a life sentence [laughs].”
