This is just your little two person chat room isn't it?

Anyways as soon as I learn more about jam bands I will poat here regularily. So far I like phish, The Grateful Dead and Widespread Panic :thumb:

I'll send you some String Cheese if you want.

No! That album is true beauty?

Maybe you'd like to try Workinman's Dead?

I'll send anyone some Jam albums if they'd like.

I'm lacking in some Cheese albums, Badmoon. I only have a Live one (I think) and Inside In. I was looking into Untying the Not, but it got minimal comments. Opinions?

The best is Born on the Wrong Planet. Untying the Not is okay, but it doesn't really sound like them.

I'm going to see Dark Star Orchestra and Keller Williams in December, Yay!!!

That'll be interesting.

The orchestra will be sweet as well but I know Keller will be great. I saw him on the Acoustic Planet tour with the Flecktones and Yonder Mountain String Band. It was obvious that he was the favorite. This is because he has amazing energy and stage presence and aways a great setlist.

Update us when you go. Have fun, man.

:cool:

ekoostik hookah, derek truks band and umphreys mcgee are great also... not as good as the greatest band ever, grateful dead!!! favorite song/jam: the other one

e p, whered you get that avatar? and what suburb are you from?

[QUOTE=Kingadamx]Another good Jam Band is O.A.R.[/QUOTE]

im sorry but O.A.R. is about as jam as Elton John. They are a good college band with a cool song, but any band that is on the Abercrombie and Fitch Tour (which they did this summer) just doesnt get a good jam band nod

[QUOTE=badmoon349]The best is Born on the Wrong Planet. Untying the Not is okay, but it doesn't really sound like them.[/QUOTE]

Untying the Not is cool if you like the really trippy stuff that Cheese gets into at their shows. But I highly suggest Carnival 99--sure it is a live album and really doesnt count as an album, but it is always the first Cheese I reach for

Yea, that's a good album.

Well, I know he believes they are a debatable band, but they do have every property a Jam Band has. Other than they do not connect to the unwritten, spoken of "Jam world".

The only String Cheese album I have is Untying the Not and it was alright i suppose. But I've heard various stuff from other albums. And I want to get some of their more bluegrass stuff. But I can't find any of their albums around here. So that kinda sucks.

But anyways...


I attended the Moe. halloween show last night. :thumb: :thumb: :thumb:

How was it?

It was great. They were paying tribute to the Grand Ole Opry (because they were in TN)so they were playing various country tunes. Which kind of unexpected but great all at the same time. I had originally thought that they were just going to cover some album for Halloween as most jam bands do on Halloween but it was great to see them switch it up and pay tribute to their roots. Probaly one of my all time favorite shows I've been to.

[QUOTE=badmoon349]I'll send ya something sometime.[/QUOTE]

That would be great :)

Has anybody heard Skerik and his Syncopated Taint Band? Pretty hot stuff; he's played with Les Claypool, Stanton Moore, etc.--the band had like seven or eight horns, keyboards, & drummer.

I want to get off the subject as fast as anyone, but back to this O.A.R. thing one more time. I have been to two Bonnaroos, and the first one was nearly ruined by girls screaming at O.A.R. to play whatever the hell it is girls want to hear. It just reminded me of the crappy fans at a DMB show. DMB is probably the most talented band around and is certaintly the biggest. Unfortunately much of the crowd is concerned with hearing "Crash" or "Space Between", which ruins the whole mood. I feel kinda the same way at OAR. Good band, enjoy their music, but the fans ruin it, and that is a huge part of a "jam band experience"

by the way, my brother went to moe. last nite, said it kicked some serious ***. Now moe. is a jamband that will ultimately go down as one of the best. Any group that can play a 2 song, hour and a half set and keep my attention gets the positive nod. hope you had fun at halloween last nite. (Wish Panic was touring so I could catch a classic Halloween show!)

I would never say that.

Sweet

Randolph is probably the only black pedal steelist :p

String cheese + Yonder Mountain or Leftover Salmon = The way it should be

yeah thats true. SCI does seem a little too mellow to have RR and the Fam opening

Well, my Jam friends last Night I had a great experience. I saw The [B]DARK STAR ORCHESTRA[/B] in Philadelphia. And I can tell you that the show was amazing. For those unfamiliar with the band the DSO is a Grateful Dead tribute band. Every show they do is an exact replica of a previous dead show. Last Night's show was from 1983. It was strange because I figured that the show was around 74 or 75 because they played some songs from Blues For Allah and from Skull & Roses.

They Also played some gems such as Not Fade Away, Candyman, and Throwing Stones. And for their encore they played Dear Mr. Fantasy and Ripple. It was truly an amazing show. They tour the entire country I'm pretty sure so if you get a chance to go and see these guys, then I advise you to. It was a great show for only $20.

This Saturday I will be seeing Keller Williams, so I will tell you about it next sunday.

Nice!

Zen Trickster > DSO

Tribute Wise IMO

Just saw Keller Williams Live with Martin Sexton. It was an awesome concert and I picked up his [I]Loop[/I] album at the concert. I can say that it is an excellent album.

So has anyone else gone to any Jam Concerts lately?

Sweet :thumb:

I wish I got chances to go to as many cool concerts as you do.

i saw galactic, tony rice unit, gran torino and bela fleck & the flecktones back in the summer, greatest shows i've ver been to.
EDIT: forgot i saw yonder mountain string band too.

Ever heard of Assembly of Dust with Reid Genauer? I'm seeing them December 29th should be good, my friend's band is opening for them.

Cool thread you guys got going on here, I'm into tons of jam bands so I'll be posting in here from time to time.

God I wish I could go to as many concerts as you people, but it doesn't seem like a lot of good jam bands come here :(

I live on the east coast...seems like I can't keep up with the bands lol I have the opposite situation. I live in CT but I go to BB Kings in NY who always has a jam band or Boston and I've been to Vermont to see Phish once.

I'm guessing San Francisco is pretty busy with jam bands since they kind of originated there.

I already Have Hoist. What's another Phish album that I should get?

[QUOTE=rock not roll]I already Have Hoist. What's another Phish album that I should get?[/QUOTE]
[I]A Live One [/I] :) Great album.

I never though A Live One was worth the money. There are many better live Phish albums, for the same amount of money.

I say Lawn Boy.

I was listening to Jam Bands Radio and Los Lonely Boys and Stevie Wonder came on :confused:

Stevie Wonder and Los Lonely Boys=jam bands?

Now Prince is on. Is the radio toying with me?
