    I saw them play Asbury Park in the Dirty Jerz a year or two or three back. It was a good time. They're a jamband, they jammed; I didn't expect too much more. They're not bad, they're not great, they're a jamband. Ya know?
  4. I don't see the correlation between a previous post and my lack of love for Umphrey's. I just thought I'd spread some knowledge to some people who might appreciate it. That's where the love comes in. It's all about the love...
  5. Theme: Songs with the word "BABY" in the title 1. Ween - Baby Bitch 2. Tenacious D - Baby 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. 11. 12.
  6. They're fun in a high-energy, funky, jazz, laxative kinda way... Ask BradM; he loves 'em. If he drove, he'd be on tour with them as we speak...
  7. Theme: Songs About The Radio 1. Wall of Voodoo - Mexican Radio 2. Elvis Costello - Radio, Radio 3. Prefuse 73 - Radio Attack 4. The Buggles - Video Killed the Radio Star 5.

  9. Nice, that makes a lot of sense. Thanks for the heads-up. It's on Fila Brazilia's 'Another Late Night'
  10. Gotcha, I was never into BNB, he doing a solo something or other? What, where, when, how, etc?
  11. Good to hear you're in good hands and good spirits. Glad you got the ball rolling in the right direction and hope you keep running with it. It takes a lot of will power to go through what you just underwent, so, much respect. Who's Mike Flip?
  12. I get the point, and I haven't even seen the movie. I completely agree that positive thinking has far-reaching effects on your personal life, mood, and beyond. I just don't see it as dictating any path you may have chosen or thought fondly or positively about. I don't buy it for a second. It's the same problem I have with religion; if you believe that one single deity is responsible for everything, you relieve yourself of responsibility. For example, You're poor, divorced, your life sucks and one day, you run over your dog, but you're a devout christian. Your fault? Nope; god did it. Fuck that. So, I guess my point is, if you put all of your faith into anything, you're bound to be detached and disapointed.
  13. Happy + Skillz = success = legit Happy + Nothing = coincidences = delusional

  15. I don't really like them, but I know most of you love 'em so, here you go: UMPHREY’S MCGEE RELEASES A “B-SIDES†DOUBLE DISC SET TITLED THE BOTTOM HALF ON APRIL 3, 2007. LOOK FOR THE BAND ON TOUR THIS SPRING. On April 3, 2007 Umphrey’s McGee releases a double disc B-Sides album – a spontaneous and intriguing follow-up to their highly touted spring 2006 studio release Safety In Numbers. Titled The Bottom Half, disc one features ten songs that did not make it onto Safety In Numbers, while disc two offers outtakes, alternative versions of songs, a cappella recordings, and other bits from the band’s 2005 studio sessions. As with Safety In Numbers, famed album artist Storm Thorgerson has designed the artwork for The Bottom Half. Safety In Numbers attracted mountains of attention for Chicago’s rising stars during 2006. The highly anticipated album charted on Billboard’s Top 200 and on the coveted “Heatseekers†chart, and received a “4 Star†review in Blender magazine. Also in 2006, Umphrey’s McGee sold out shows in theaters coast to coast, appeared at Lollapalooza and Bonnaroo, and made their late night TV debut on ABC’s Jimmy Kimmel Live. In addition, Guitar Player Magazine recently featured the band’s guitarists – Jake Cinninger and Brendan Bayliss – on their list of “Best Unsung Guitar Heroes.†The current list of confirmed tour dates is as follows: February 21 Culture Room Ft. Lauderdale FL February 22 State Theatre St. Petersburg FL February 23 The Music Farm Charleston SC February 24 Amos' South End Charlotte NC February 25 Legend's Music Hall Boone NC February 27 The NorVa Norfolk VA February 28 Georgia Theater Athens GA March 01 The Orange Peel Asheville NC March 02 Bijou Theatre Knoxville TN March 05-06 Fox Theatre Boulder CO March 14 Canopy Club Urbana IL March 15 The Orbit Room Grand Rapids MI March 16 Clutch Cargos Pontiac MI March 17 Morris Performing Arts Center South Bend IN March 22 Orpheum Theatre Madison WI March 23-24 First Avenue Minneapolis MN April 03 Iowa Memorial Union Ballroom Iowa City IA April 04 The Blue Note Columbia MO April 05 The Pageant St. Louis MO April 06-07 Egyptian Room - Murat Centre Indianapolis IN April 11 Calvin Theatre Northampton MA April 12 Avalon Theatre Boston MA April 13 Nokia Theatre Time Square New York NY April 14 9:30 Club Washington D.C.

It has been a quick rise for Chicago’s Umphrey’s McGee. Their virtuoso playing and edgy songcraft recently compelled RollingStone to choose Umphrey’s “a band to watch†in their annual Hot Issue. Relix magazine put them on the cover of their December 2004 issue and the prestigious Chicago Music Awards bestowed upon Umphrey’s McGee the coveted Best Rock Entertainer of the Year award. Booked coast to coast by the Monterey Peninsula Booking Agency, the band recently sold out three nights at Chicago’s Aragon Ballroom, two nights at Irving Plaza, San Francisco’s Fillmore Auditorium, and the list goes on.
