It’s a shame though this should be no surprise to some of you since they’ve not been very active as of late. Aaron Freeman a.k.a. Gene Ween told Rolling Stone from his New Jersey home:
“It’s time to move on… I’m retiring Gene Ween.”
Freeman goes on to say:
“It’s been a long time, 25 years. It was a good run.”
“For me it’s a closed book. In life sometimes, in the universe, you have to close some doors to have others open. There’s no, ‘Goddamn that such and such!’ For me, I’d like to think it’s a door I can close finally.”
Ween are/were one of the great bands that carved their own path in the music industry, and inspired a generation of music experimentalists. They will be missed. You can read the rest of the article HERE.
