As many of you know I am a HUGE WEEN fan. We go way back to 1998 when I was 16 and introduced to them by listening to a song called 'Sarah'... Still to this day it is my FAVORITE song and always will be. I see WEEN as much as I can and anyone who knows of WEEN, you know its an honor to see WEEN on HalloWEEN. They won't disappoint. As I went into last nights show, I knew a few things; 1. I would be Front Row 2. I will take as many pictures as possible 3. I will probably get the set list at the end of the show 4. This is my 11th WEEN show 5. I will not be expecting to hear SARAH and 6. I will remember this show as I remember every other show.
Taylor arrived at the venue at 10:45am and Heather and I arrived about 10 minutes later, to make sure we were first in line. The doors opened at 7pm on the dot, so yes there was a lot of waiting around. When you stand in line you always meet new friends as we met Jenny and Amanda (fellow Cheese-heads)!
This is our crew (Mavis, Me, Heather, Shawna, Taylor, Amanda, Jenny) right before the doors opened!!!
WEEN finally made their entrance and they were dressed as Bunnies... Totally not expected, but amazing at the same time.
This is Deaner... I call him my HUSBAND. He is an amazing guitarist. I always stand right in front of him and I take about 150 pictures of him a concert... He is DREAMY
This is Deaner's Rabbit Head after he took it off.
Gener... The lead singer. The coolest one in the band. Amazing voice and amazing expressions
He is the coolest guy in the world... Check out his hair!!!
Deaner sings only a few songs a night
All of a sudden Gener went up to Deaner and whispered something in his ear... No one knows what was said, but all of a sudden Deaner starts playing the guitar real slow... He rarely plays this slow. So I listened a little more and realized that he was playing SARAH. I freaked out, turned on the video on my camera and started recording... They never play SARAH, this has all of a sudden became one of the BEST nights of my life.
Since 1987... Gene and Dean. Ween.
This is amazing when they do this
Dave... The bassist. He stands pretty far away from me, so I really don't ever get good pics but this one is good!
Glenn... He plays the keyboards. Also far away... Great at what he does
Claude... Deaner decided he wanted to play the drums so Claude and him switched spots. This NEVER happens... This night is becoming the BEST night of my life...
Deaner on Drums, Claude on Guitar
Deaner singing 'The Blarney Stone' back with the Rabbit Hat
And then the night becomes the BEST night of my life. The security guard that has been taking care of me all night tells me that a few select girls will be allowed to go on stage with the band... OMG. He then tells me to go to the other side of the stage to meet the girl who is picking girls to get up there. I run. I see the girl who is picking, she asks me if I wanna go on stage, I say YES PLEASE... We wait to what seems to be forever and then I finally get to go. She tells me to go over to Dave, but I take a detour and go to Deaner...
The first moment we share together... I think I am dreaming. This can't be happening to me. I am so happy
Gener and I dancing. He kept on looking in my eyes. He is a really great guy.
I went back to Deaner
I could watch him play guitar for hours and hours and hours
And I posed!!! YES
He finally notices that I am there...
Its true we looked into each others eyes a lot. He smiled. I smiled and put my hand over my heart. This is where I asked him if he wanted to 'Make Out?'
I am in AWE. He really is real.
Damn, I wish I was your lover...
So many girls are crowding my man!
And then someone grabbed him... I wish it was me. I was way too scared.
So yes this was by far the BEST night of my LIFE so far. WEEN you have outdone yourselves. I will forever love you and you will forever be my FAVORITE band. Thank you for the memories. I will share these stories with the world until the day I die.
Love your biggest fan,
