Listening to: Ween – Even if you don’t

This weekend was a busy one. There were three shows I attended: Datarock, Ween, and Juan Maclean

Datarock 11.15.07

overall rating, B-

I was expecting more dance and less rock, but it was still good.

Ween 11.17.07

overall rating, B+

I wasn’t expecting much from this concert, but Ween really blew me away. Their songs come off great live. One thing I must say though. I hated the guitar solo in ‘Voodoo girl’. It was way too long and added nothing to the song. On a better note, I loved ‘Even if you don’t’. I’ve never heard this song til that night (I’ll admit I’m not the biggest Ween fan out there), and now it’s stuck in my head. How can you not like a song with a chorus that goes,

“I love you, even if you don’t
You’ve got your knife up to my throat
Why do you want to see me bleed?”

Juan Maclean 11.17.07

overall rating, B

I actually didn’t have to pay for this one. Not too many people showed up so they started letting people in for free. As for the music, I had no complaints. Everyone who was there was dancing.
