The Pod Tour

<-- GodWeenSatan Tour | The Pod Tour | Pure Guava Tour -->

The Pod Tour was a concert tour by Ween, taking place between September 7th 1991 and June 18th 1992. Bassist Mark Kramer and drummer Claude Coleman joined Ween for the UK leg of the tour, including a recording session for John Peel. Ween fell out with Kramer due to creative differences, and the rest of the tour was done with the DAT backing tape.
