Another good Jam Band is O.A.R.

yea theyre pretty good not really one of my favorites but i like some of their songs

check out "particle" i really dont like jam bands but i like these guys

Does String Cheese Incident cover Gin and Juice or is it someone else? I'm not really sure because when I downloaded it, it was labeled as Phish and I know that it's not them.

It's done by The Gourds.

O ok i wasn't really sure who did it.

Gov't Mule
Jim Jones
Jim Jones And The Koolaid Kids
The Allman Brothers Band
The Grateful Dead
Phish
and some other ones i cant think of right now...

Alright Let's get this thread going in a different direction. I'll say the name of a Jam Band and everyone tells me their favorite song/Album.

I'm going to start with an easy one that everyone should know:

The Grateful Dead

My Favorite Song: Bertha
My Favorite Album: American Beauty

fav song: st. stephen
fav album: aoxomoxoa

Oysterhead: a supergroup with Les Claypool (bass, vocals), Trey Anastasio (guitar, vocals), and Stewart Copeland (percussion). I saw them on that short-lived HBO show "Reverb," and they seem to have an interesting show.

^Cool Did They Put any albums out?

Yes, The Grand Pecking Order.

album: Workingman's Dead
song: Me and my Uncle

Okay Let's move on to [B]Phish[/B]

My Favorie Song: Farmhouse
My Favorite Album: Hoist

ah sweet sweet phish

fav song- stash
fav album- picture of nectar

Scent of a Mule
Lawn Boy

First of all...Great Idea

fav song-ghost
fav album-picture of nectar

the breakup sucks
its the worst thing thats happened to me this year in my life as well as many others.
long live phish


oh and dont forget the Flecktones or DMB

Flecktones, aren't THAT jam bandish, a little possibly but not full frontal.

^True but they do fit into th scene rather nicely.
But they also fit into funk,bluegrass,jazz,etc.






Is anyone going to Coventry or is going to/has been to any Phish concerts?

I might be going to one of their last shows in Camden, NJ.

Alright How 'Bout [B]The Allman Bros Band[/B]

My Favorite Song: Whipping Post
My Favorite Album: At Fillmore East

fav song-mountain jam (an amazing 30 minute plus jam)
fav album- live at fillmore east

Blue Sky

[I]Eat A Peach[/I]

[I]LAFE[/I] is overrated, [I]Eat a Peach[/I] is where it's at.

I know this is off topic but at the same time its on-topic with jam bands. It concerns Phish.

I know most of you guys probably have their studio recordings but in case you didnt know, their live recordings have so much more to offer in the ways of jamming and improv. LivePhish.com has lots if you care to pay for it. If not find a friend with bootlegs or something.
