"Yeah, we have humor in our music, but it can get as serious as a heart attack, too." ~ Gene Ween
"There is a lot of psychological terror going on in Ween, and there always has been." ~Dean Ween
1984 - Aaron Freeman and Mickey Melchiondo meet in 8th grade typing class at New Hope-Solebury High School in Pennsylvania. Both are making home recordings at the time and begin swapping records from their collections. The boys are visited by the demon-god BOOGNISH, prompting them to form WEEN and assume the alter egos Dean and Gene Ween.
"We don't know what we're doing. We don't have a plan. We don't sit down and calculate it."
Dean Ween
