The Live Brain Wedgie!/Wad Excerpts is an early LP by Ween, released in 1988 on Bird o' Pray Records. This was one of their final releases for the label before moving to Twin/Tone for the release of GodWeenSatan: The Oneness.

The A-side (The Live Brain Wedgie!) is taken from a May 2, 1988 show in Trenton, New Jersey,[1] while the B-side (Wad Excerpts) is a collection of lo-fi demos from the Wad sessions including a few tracks not on any known copies of Wad.[2]
