Their management is easy to get in touch with through their website (www.ween.com) - Please make it so!
WEEN covers so many genres in their music, it would be hard to pick a handful of songs to recommend, but here are my suggestions, based on how fun I imagine the songs would be to perform in game:
Song - album
Tried and True - quebec
Transdermal Celebration - quebec
The Grobe - White Pepper
Ocean Man - The Mollusk
I'll Be Your Johnny on the Spot - The Mollusk
Roses Are Free - Chocolate and Cheese
Voodoo Lady - Chocolate and Cheese
I Can't Put My Finger On It - Chocolate and Cheese
*edit: ALL the above mentioned songs from the 'Chocolate and Cheese' album have evolved as they've been played live over the years. The live versions are actually superior, in my opinion. And Ween records almost all their live shows...
Ween fans are obsessive, as you may know. Every one of them that owns Rock Band will get a Ween package!

I should add that the songs listed above are (I believe) suitable for Rock Band (meaning none of the potentially offensive lyrics endemic to some Ween tracks).

Every time I play Rock Band, all I can think is "gawd I wish there was some Ween in here" and "the fact that Transdermal Celebration isn't in this game is a travesty".
Just a reminder Harmonix, Ween's management is super easy to get ahold of, you can find Deaner's email really easily (I already emailed him begging him to talk to you guys :P), and I am ready and waiting to hand over money for Ween DLC in Rock Band!

I think they should put the entire Mollusk album. I think that was Weens best album.
But I think it is rough to decide on some Ween songs, they cross so many genres of music it is hard to put your finger on it. Pun intended. But because of this, alot of their songs have distorted guitars or drums or effects in them and some including almost like an orchestra like Buckingham Green. Even still though, I would love to tear up that solo and play those drums at the end. I think putting open spaces on charts similar to Won't Get Fooled Again really helps single out the instruments as they all come in or when the band is pretty much going on and off with specific instruments. It just really helps you feel like it is a co-op effort when you can look at your band mate rocking when your instrument gets a break.
Anyway, get Ween! They are really great people and I'm sure they will understand the vision and they are easy to get a hold of.
