Being able to dance at a show should have to be a qualifier for being a jam band

Not sure Umphrey's hour+ long prog-metal sessions even count under this criteria

this is ridiculous

I know primus is "accepted" by the jam community mainly because of oysterhead, but primus isn't a "jam band".

Also adding: Glad it's not on the list, but since this is the Jam Thunderdome

Anyone who thinks My Morning Jacket is a jam band, is a loser

Claypool would laugh at you for this ignorant statement.

Why are you so terrified by the jam band moniker?

Hmm. They are a weird one. I feel like years ago they could possibly be labeled a jam band. Now? Probably not. Although Jim James did host that Bonnaroo superjam.

I don't get the MMJ hate. Z is one of the best albums of the aughts.

While looking this stuff I noticed massive electronic shows in LA, Vegas, NYC, and Miami. All of them had pretty stacked lineups as far as that scene goes.

I don't really hate them, but Jam_On drops them randomly between two other more "set" jam bands and kills the flow for me.

Jim James had a guest spot on Booker T's new album on the song "Progress", I enjoyed it a lot

Yea, I bet those would be a good time

I always had a lot of fun at electronic shows, but I think that ship has sailed for me.

That scene is just so lame now. I mean it wasn't great before, but now it's terrible.

And more importantly my molly connect doesn't deal anymore.

Primus isn't a jam band. Maybe Claypool's various side projects are more "jam band."

Primus is prog rock mixed with funk, mixed with alt rock mixed with metal.

Do you even listen to primus?

Primus sucks
