Slamming Jack - Eat More Pie8.9.10.11.12.I just want to clarify something, if the band only plays once a year just for shits and giggles, they are still considered broken up and qualify for this album?BTW: I also didn't think blue quarter was broken up.

boiler Posted March 13, 2008 Report Share Posted March 13, 2008 4 more...anybody got anything?Just in case anyone needs help knowing what a "jamband" is.Jam bandStylistic origins: Folk rock, blues-rock, jazz fusion, rock and roll, psychedelic rock, southern rock, country rock, bluegrassCultural origins: 1960s in the United StatesTypical instruments: Guitar - Bass - Drums - KeyboardMainstream popularity: Peaked in the late 1990s subsequent to the rising popularity, underground prior to this with some mainstream hits within other genres. Also very popular in Festivals.Regional scenesDenver - San Francisco Bay Area - East Florida - Southern California - Austin, TexasJam bands (or jambands) are musical groups whose albums and live festival performances inspire a fan culture such as originated with the 1960s group Grateful Dead and continued in the 1990s with Phish and similar bands. The performances of these bands often feature extended musical improvisation over rhythmic grooves and chord patterns and long sets of music that cross genre boundaries.[1]While the seminal group, Grateful Dead, were originally categorized as psychedelic rock,[2] by the 1990s, the term "jam band" was used for groups playing a variety of genres including funk, progressive bluegrass, and jazz fusion. As of 2007, the term is also used for some groups playing blues, country music, folk music, world music, and electronica.[1] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phishtaper Posted March 13, 2008 Report Share Posted March 13, 2008 what's an example of a country jamband? and wtf is progressive bluegrass? "explaining" music is almost as much fun as explaining humour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boiler Posted March 13, 2008 Report Share Posted March 13, 2008 what's an example of a country jamband? and wtf is progressive bluegrass? "explaining" music is almost as much fun as explaining humour. You're right, music is unexplainable. Anyway, Drive by Truckers, The United Steelworkers of Montreal and The Gourds probably go into those two categories. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bradm Posted March 13, 2008 Report Share Posted March 13, 2008 Yonder Mountain String Band (live recordings of which can be heard here) would probably be considered "progressive bluegrass."Aloha,Brad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
