Dean Ween - aka e Deaner - recorded the rock2 album at his dedicated studio facility in Lambertville, NJ, across the river from his native New Hope, PA. Here's how the Deaner describes the genesis of this new body of work: "ese were written for this sole purpose and recorded with the entire lineup: the best band in the world, Ween -- Claude Coleman Jr., Dave Dreiwitz, and Glenn McClelland, also the other best band in the world, the lineup of the DWG -- Mike Dillon, Bill Fowler, Ray Kubian, Scott Rednor, and the other 50 members and usual suspects. I'm pretty proud of rock2; it represents the rst time that I was able to take what we do onstage and put it on a record. Now is a strange time to be a musician, live music is really your main outlet for making a living. I never thought at this stage of my career that I would be putting in this much time on the road and in the studio, but I am, and I'm enjoying it more than I ever have. Take a peek into a couple of months of that groove with this album, rock2. Every little thing I've ever learned is somewhere on here, somewhere. Maybe you can nd a little piece of it that means as much to you as it does to me."
