Ween closed out their 2019 performance schedule at The Met Philly Saturday night with a marathon performance that saw the genre-defying group play 34 songs over the course of the evening.

The show kicked off with “Pork Roll Egg and Cheese” and kept that dark-spacey energy going with “Spinal Meningitis (Got Me Down)”. The 29-song performance also featured staple originals such as “Bananas and Blow”, “Roses Are Free”, “Buckingham Green”, “Voodoo Lady” and many, many more. Ween also dusted off Prince‘s “Kiss”, a cover they had not played in over two years.
Before riding off into the sunset for the rest of 2019, the band treated fans to a five-song encore of “Big Jilm”, “She Wanted to Leave”, “Birthday Boy”, “What Deaner Was Talkin’ About”, and “I Got A Weasel”.
The band is off until February 13th when they will return to play College Street Music Hall in New Haven, CT ahead of a two-night stint at Terminal 5 in New York City on February 14th and 15th. The following month, Ween will head to Vegas on March 19th, 20th, and 21st. for three nights at Brooklyn Bowl Las Vegas Tickets for those shows are available through the band’s website.
