Ween to Release Live Box Set Boognish Provides

Ween will release a collection titled Boognish Provides, which brings together live recordings from the tour for Chocolate and Cheese. The set is scheduled to be released through Rhino on October 16, and it contains seven previously unreleased concerts recorded between October 1994 and June 1995. The recordings were captured at concert venues located in Santa Monica, Chicago, Minneapolis, Athens, Antwerp, Boulder, and Philadelphia.

The collection is set to arrive in multiple physical formats. A deluxe version consists of 14 CDs, while a 2LP edition features 19 performances selected from the seven concerts. Across the shows in the collection, the band performs 12 of the 16 tracks featured on the Chocolate and Cheese album. Included on the 2LP edition is a 24-minute version of the track Vallejo recorded in Athens, which has also been made available digitally.

In addition to material from the era, the collection features early live recordings of tracks that would later appear on subsequent albums, such as Piss Up a Rope, The Blarney Stone, and Flutes of Chi. In terms of their touring history, Ween took a five-year hiatus from performing concerts between 2011 and 2016, and they continued to take the stage periodically until 2024.
