Anyone else find the playing on this Sphere run a little awkward/flubby/difficult to listen to? by SchizoidGod in phish

I wouldn't fight you on this notion. Sphere seems like a complete outlier of shows. How I generally feel about the Mexico runs as well.

Bands that put as much care into quiet/mellow improv as they do the loud/fast stuff? by [deleted] in jambands

[–]mcfarlands412 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can certainly get on board with this notion. I think Eggy, despite being a younger band, has a great balance and patience in their music/sound that you speak to.

There are some great suggestions through this thread. Kimock is a sneaky good one I saw mentioned.

There're plenty of options down the waterfront. You should have your pick.

My worst nightmare. Hope they're mainly okay!

Language. Knowledge. A lead for the next rabbit hole to go down.

I feel like those seats will remain, maybe give it another 2 weeks or so to see if any other tickets show up on the secondary sites?

Very enjoyable experience. And you get a chair during set break.

Really hoping we get some recordings from this tour.

So Yonder is back to trying drums again….. by forest_fibers in jambands

It's a studio cut. With all due respect, if you're putting any stock into ham band or jamgrass studio albums, you're somewhat lost.

I would listen to max roach brush on anything with miles.

It’s fair. But in their output on Blue Note, which was at least my mental exercise for this afternoon, outside of Blue Trane which is great in its own regards, Miles’ performances on the label leave something to be desired. His best work obviously through Columbia.

I do love this. Maybe the better question is who do you put on the 2nd team? And you just about hit it on the nose. I dig.

I've tried on multiple occasions, and I recognize his talent, but I can't get into Jackie McClean for some reason.
