Jambands.com Launches New Website


This was LONG overdue, after taking flack for years from lame ass neckbeard blogs(free williamsburg), the site has done something about their crappy layout. The word "jambands" is no longer "hot" so the site seemed to fade into obscurity except for the die hards. The old page looked like something strait from the Waback Machine. For a while it was all jumbled tables and not even any CSS.

Jambands will hold our own on the internet, we were here first and we will adapt with the times. The Phish/Dead/Allmans revival has infused much needed energy into this resilient music scene.

The site looks great and seems to be the begging of the next revolution for improvisational music.

Furthur Soundboards, SBDs


The latest Dead spin off Furthur is going full steam on their first tour. Here is a nice video of their Oakland show from Sammy..

Furthur is Phil Lesh, Bob Weir, Jeff Chimenti, John Kadlecik, Jay Lane and Joe Russo. All great musicians worthy of their own band. Having the Guitarist for DSO play with Bobby and Phil should result in some interesting jams as well.

All we need to see now is the Rhythm Devils to back these three up.


Check out the Lotus Review and photos on Hidden Track from their recent NYC Mercury Lounge show
