Dean Ween plays Pink Floyd's Echoes (2.21.14) - John and Peter's, New Hope PA

Mickey Melchiondo (aka Dean Ween) has happily been keeping busy of late running his own Fishing Boat charter business.  Since the demise of the group Ween, the result of Gene Ween (Aaron Freeman) hitting rock bottom and finding sobriety, Melchiondo has also kept busy with his other project Moistboyz touring in support of 2013's album  5.

Since March 22nd Mickey's been performing with his own newly inaugurated Dean Ween Group.  But on February, 21 in his hometown of New Hope, PA he fulfilled a childhood dream (according to Ultimate Classic Rock) to peform the Pink Floyd classic Echoes in its entirety live.  Deaner assembled in his words the 'ultimate cover band' to pull off the feat (Bill Fowler (guitar and vocals), Ray Kubian (drums), Sean Faust (keyboards)
Guy Heller (vocals), and Chris Williams (bass)).

Rather then base their version off of of Floyd's 1971 album Meddle (clocking in at 23 minutes) Deaner modeled their version off of Live at Pompeii ramming together the live Parts 1 and 2 that served as the beginning and ending of that film.  "We grew up watching "Live at Pompeii" all the time and finally got to execute this song properly," said Deaner.
