Following the unexpected cancellation of Ween’s highly anticipated tour, including the landmark 30th-anniversary tribute to Chocolate and Cheese at the Mann Center, devoted Ween fans are invited to come together in celebration of the iconic experimental rock band. Learn 2 Ween Live, a rising two-man Ween tribute group, will take the stage at the World Cafe Live on Friday, September 27, 2024, for a night of nostalgia, deep cuts, and all things Ween.
With a passion for recreating the band’s eclectic and beloved catalog, Learn 2 Ween will perform two full sets featuring Ween classics, fan favorites, and obscure gems, bringing the spirit of Ween to life in an intimate, high-energy setting. The tribute will offer fans the chance to relive the magic of the band’s genre-defying music in a live setting. A portion of the proceeds from the event will be donated to Backline, a non-profit organization supporting mental health and wellness for music industry professionals and their families.
World Cafe Live, located at 3025 Walnut Street in Philadelphia, will provide the ideal atmosphere for this special celebration. Doors open at 7:00 PM, with the show beginning at 8:00 PM. The night will also feature exclusive Ween-themed merchandise, opportunities to learn more about supporting Backline, and a chance for fans to connect with the tight-knit Ween community.
Tickets are on sale now and can be purchased through the World Cafe Live box office or online at bit.ly/927WCL. This is a must-attend event for Ween fans old and new, whether they’ve been following the band since The Crucial Squeegie Lip or recently discovered their ever-evolving sound.
About Learn 2 Ween
Learn 2 Ween is a two-man tribute band hailing from Philly/South NJ, paying homage to the early days of Ween with an old-school approach. The duo, featuring Jeff Mann (drummer of Consider the Source) and Dr. Scorpion, recreates a wide range of the Ween catalog using live loops and acoustic sets. Dr. Scorpion is well-known in the Ween community for his educational YouTube channel Learn 2 Ween, where he’s amassed over 6,000 subscribers and has posted over 200 guitar lesson videos dedicated to Ween songs.
The duo’s formation was nothing short of serendipitous. After Jeff spotted a Learn 2 Ween sticker on a local sign and tagged the Instagram page, the two musicians connected and realized they lived in neighboring towns. Since then, they’ve been on a mission to spread the genius and humor of Ween’s music to audiences everywhere.
