| It has nothing to do with Eddie Dingle. Its a tribute to Eddie Hazel, the late funk guitarist | |

| that's interestng that you all thought it was for eddie dingle i'd never heard that for some reason I was always thinking it was a tribute to eddie hazel the guitarist of parliament funkadelic but come to think of it i don't think i have enough evidence to back that up, I like eddie dingle better: bring on the weenlore | |

| I know that this is an instrumental, but honestly, I would have expected more people to comment on this one by now. It's absolutely beautiful! Hmm... a tribute to some guy named Eddie? That's all I can come up with. | |

| Where is the Eddie Dingle reference on Pure Guava? I don't thik there is one, so therefore, I think tat the guy who said the thing about an Eddie Dingle reference on every album before C&C is wrong. | |

| Eddie Dingle hides inside Mourning Glory laughing at the pumpkins. A Tear for Eddie got me into Ween. | |

| Its about the decision to no longer embrace the Eddie Dingle alter ego. Every album including, and before chocolate and cheese mentions eddie dingle. chocolate and cheese mentions shedding a tear for him as he will no longer be a part of ween. | |

| BazookaTooth is right. Eddie Hazel of Funkadelic died in late 1992, and this is Ween's tribute to him. Has anyone heard any version of this live when they stretch it out to upwards of ten minutes? One can be found here: http://www.archive.org/details/ween1997-11-27.sbd.shnf It's pretty amazing in my opinion. Deaner is a very talented guitarist, but never really gets recognized for it, which is a shame. | |
