Not just a random party. The party moe. is throwing for 3 days up at killy this year. they used to do it in lake placid for a couple years. Lineup is sick, tickets are cheap. Why not come and jam out?

Get a little tast of what we can expect for moe. this summer and moe.down later on.

No apparently not. I searchbarred and bumped the other thread thinking they were on the same page.

http://www.moe.org/snoedown/?c=245    snow.down=winter festi put on by the band moe. every once in a while. They did it in like 06 and 07(i think those were the years) in lake placid. moe. has they're regular summer fest they put on every year moe.down, so snow.down makes sense for the winter one.

moe. (2 nights)
Sharon Jones and the Dap-Kings
Railroad Earth
Assembly of Dust
The Bridge
The Heavy Pets
Hot Day at the Zoo
Leroy Justice
Lynch
The McLovins
Moonalice
Red Rooster














Plus railroad earth, assembly of dust heavy pets, and so many others. So no completely different party

Being an ignorant asshole still isn't cool. Most bands wish they could jam. Moe. plays everything from rock, country, to ridiculous jams. And they rock the shit out of it.

Ignorant people these days. There are bands I don't like, but I respect good musicianship. Just the fact that most band's that are cool these day's couldn't pull off 5 percent of what some of the jambands are doing these days. And my musical tastes are quite varied.

I don't listen to only jam music. But this is a fucking party.  Have fun with your lady gaga and closed mind

for making money, i wouldn't dare disagree. but as a musician myself, i can say that not only is jamming waaayyy too fun, but it really is amazing to experience the connection between band members-- my pianist and i can jam and nail transitions and feels without ever having talked about them beforehand. and not to mention some of the best musicians in the world are, to an extend, jam band members.

the lowest for of music is not jam bands. jam band are extrodinarily talented and it take skill and time to prefect songs that to some people are fucking awsome, others are just ok and some kids with flat peaked hats and tall tees think they sound like shit. well my friend the lowest for of music is the ever popular and forever horrible mashup. thats right, the mashup. fuck everyone who has made a mashup and double fuck people who ike them, that made them so popular.

Looks sick, I wish I could make it down there haha
Its sad how people are so close minded and stubborn these days, and to the guy that said jamming's the lowest form of music: I disagree, there is not "low" form of music, but if I had to choose I'd say this is a good contender:

If you think that jazz is below the genre of jambands, I'm sorry for your soul.

Coming from somebody who probably like bands that have shit written for them. It's one thing to not like something, but good jam bands are good musicianship. If you just pass that off with a dumb comment like that, your ignorant to music.

No way around it. The flow in and out of song. Most bands could only dream of being able to do that. I like many different style of music. Music is my thing. But you sir, I laugh at you, and I'll go have plenty more fun at show's since you probably don't go to many or any in the first place.

Seem them a few times. They've improved so much in the last year. I think in a couple years, they will fully be there. To have that talent to jam at that age is insane. I wish them the best

I'm sorry but if you're sticking with what you said before.... I can only imagine you're a horrible musician. You don't even understand how much music today is inspired by some of the early jammers.

Even some jazz musicians jam. You just don't have an appreciation for music. you need that to really be good at any style. Have fun ns claimer.

dude, just quit. You sound like an idiot. If you play music, as i do, or appreciate good music, you can find good musicianship in style that you may not even enjoy. You saying that jambands are the lowest form of music, but claiming yourself as a musician is just laughable. JThe technical skill to jam is something many bands just cannot do. They have a pre written song that they practice and play the identical track every time live. Believe me, I've been to a shitload of show of different styles. Jam music needs a cohesiveness between members to the point where they can create the same song, completely differently, everytime they play it. Teasing into a another song in the middle sometimes. It's pretty amazing technical skill.

There are plenty of bands and styles that i don't like but appreciate the good musicianship involved to make it.

you can keep arguing, but again, you have no idea who i am.

I jam all the time, jazz, blues, noise, etc...

I'm sure I'm a better musician that you. Respectable artists don't listen to jam bands.

how could one say that jam bands are the lowest form of music. it takes talent to have a fluid sound when your shit is rehearsed nevermind on the fly, or just jamming out. there are very few 'real bands' that can just freestyle it and have a great sound. ive been to plenty of Roots concerts and the most fun part of the show is when Quest Love and Captian Kirk or whoever else is there are just jamming out in between sets.
ever seen these guys before? they kill it and have fun doing it:

let me have my opinion. You aren't gonna change my mind. I hate jam bands.

If we talk about something like supersilent, or the ken vandermark 5, we see talent. And it happens to sound good too.
