hamilton Posted October 13, 2006 Report Share Posted October 13, 2006 This thread is turning into improv vs songs and it's sad and predictable that the improv side is winning.The irony is that everyone seems to believe that "improv" is what we hear when we listen to jambands. Most people would run screaming from the room if they heard a *real* improv artist, like John Zorn or someone like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I never run screaming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
