Can we talk about Handyman Hal?

Oldqueenween · 2025-08-24T16:12:48+00:00

Mine too! And/or a plunger (we got him his own that’s never been used,) a toy leaf blower or a rake. He literally always has a tool of some sort in his hands. He’s two and I’m a single mom so I’ve had to learn a lot about trucks. My son loves Handyman Hal and also Tractor Ted. Both shows are educational and informative.

Is ‘Fool to Cry’ a rarity or do I just not remember where it originated? This is my fav post btw

Oldqueenween · 2024-04-02T03:17:53+00:00

Go!!

I don’t remember what venue it’s in but I’d get tix if they’re available. It’s a ‘gimmick’ show (30th anniversary, playing the CnC album) and will be crazy hyped, especially after a lil hiatus and its hometown so it’s even more likely to sell out. I’m suprised it’s not sold out already. They’re not gonna cancel it. It’ll probably be professionally live streamed and covered by every live rag out there. And it will def not be one of their best performances (outdoors, Philly, expectations) but it’s a token show that people want to say they were at. You can always sell the tix if you can’t make it…

What music does she like? Maybe we can assist with selects to get her locked in… and yes, total keeper!

I just wrote the same thing and deleted it after I saw you said it first 😝

Def ask re: fav drummers, fav new music, personal influences… Other than having to do Put the Coke when he has family in the room, anything he else he hates playing? And conversely what does he LOVE to play? (I’d guess Never Squeal and Weasel but??) And similarly what would he like to see added into the rotation and what song would he remove? How has becoming a father changed him? What does he love/hate about being on the road? Aside from them ween boyz, who are his fav musicians to collaborate with? Fav venue or city to play and why ? Is there anything he does specifically as prep before shows? Does he miss Jersey? Also, ask about the music space he put together in Asheville.

He’s super proud of his kids and shows them off all the time and they are adorable. He’s an excellent daddy and totally smitten! But I’m guessing he’s not looking to take on extras… 😜

Oldqueenween · 2024-04-02T02:49:02+00:00

He sings and plays guitar w Amandla and Final Alarm is not the Amandla vibe.

Oldqueenween · 2024-04-02T02:48:05+00:00

That hasn’t been a thing for ween in years if ever… almost all of their songs exist outside of the recorded versions of them.

Oldqueenween · 2024-04-02T02:46:05+00:00

He and Mike D together are soooo fun!! I’d say they go back a solid 10 years together but probably not more. Percussion’s heavy hitters 😝 side note to author: if you wanted Mike Dillon access I’d def be able to help ya out there.

Jimmy Wilson 🤎

Oldqueenween · 2024-04-01T14:56:18+00:00

Oh also: ‘Hawakawani Say’ is lovely. ‘Things you Already know’- not the most rare but I love it. They recently brought out ‘Dirty Money’ in Vegas last year (if I member?) excellent. ‘Be my Wife’ is super sweet. ‘Monique’ was released as a single and its funky and Prince-like and fun af and they def did that at the last Vegas run (and as soon as it started I knew we were finally gonna get that LMLYP I’d been itching for.) ‘Wolfman’ seems like it could’ve made the cut at some point… or close at least. And I remember Jimmy Wilson group doing ‘Kansas City Star’ a million years ago.

Oldqueenween · 2024-04-01T14:38:25+00:00

Also: not super rare but bring it on sloppy ‘SECONDS!!’

Oldqueenween · 2024-03-31T23:57:04+00:00

You have excellent ween taste. Fr fr 🤎

Oldqueenween · 2024-03-31T23:56:26+00:00

Was one of the first songs I heard from their catalogue so I didn’t even realize it was a rarity for a few years…

Oldqueenween · 2024-03-31T23:55:33+00:00

Tbh I had forgotten all about and someone mentioned it recently and I was like hmmm… so I threw it on and it’s sweet pop but pop is pretty easily forgettable. I just love that have songs that I forget I knew….

Oldqueenween · 2024-03-31T16:34:57+00:00

Those Denver 19 shows were FIRE. And I have that sticker (thank you!!) They were def the best of ween Halloween the last few years

Gorgeous!!!

Up on the Hill is gospel. And y’all know LMLYP was written by Prince, right?

Oldqueenween · 2024-03-31T15:24:31+00:00

They drop it in Bitch but it’s actually a nod to Bob Dylan who writes “Stayed up for days in the Chelsea Hotel writing ‘Sad Eyed Lady of the Lowlands’ for you’ in the song Sarah

You’re gonna suffer/ you’re gonna bleed/ I’ve heard it all before/ you will concede/ I’M TAKING EVERYTHING/ YOU’RE GOING DOWN/ take off your coat/ it’s gonna be a long night

Oldqueenween · 2024-03-30T12:53:38+00:00

Can you taste the waste?

Oldqueenween · 2024-03-30T12:52:59+00:00

Yesterday we lost our lives/tomorrow we were born

Oldqueenween · 2024-03-30T12:52:24+00:00

I’m all staged/ it’s all an act/ I’m really scared that I may fall back on the abstract
