Video / Stream / Download: Gene Ween fronts Umphrey's at Summer Camp 5/22/15

In one of most anticipated attractions of this year's festival, Aaron Freeman, aka Gene Ween, slipped into front man role for one of Umphrey's McGee's three sets at Summer Camp.  And yes, it was called *gulp* GODBONER.

I might get some shit for this, but for those like me who enjoy UM's playing but are softer on their material and singing, this is a true treat, as Gener leads them through some Ween tunes and even a Billy Joel cover. Check out a three song video by shinepigeon which includes "Baby Bitch", "Take Me Away" and "The Stranger". Full setlist below.  [Update 5/25 -  Full set video courtesy of izeoftheworldphotos]
