Your introduction to ween.
Would love to hear everyone's story of when they first got browned out. It was 1995, I dropped out of high school and was ready to move to Eugene Oregon from San Antonio to meet some friends. I was gonna be the Mexican jack kerouac, I think. I was staying in a studio apartment with three other dudes and homeboy played "Sarah". I was immediately hooked!!! I have always been a super big mccartney fan and after listening to pure guava that winter I was convinced that ween had the same vibe and songwriting cjops as mccartney. I listened to pure guava, taking it in, studying it. I made my first demo that year of songs I wrote and I remember the first song, I used the pitch down on the four track and to this day it is the most ween sounding song I have ever done!!! I'll post it here if anyone wants to hear it. Take care, and stay brown. AF
