I’m a big fan of both. Might be on the shorter side, but that Mitten is a big ol party too. BTW, you using Plunger and Dump City repeatedly in that paragraph makes me giggle about poop.
You might say I was thinking I’d go the dump first and the plunger second, but the dump is has to be #2
I don’t want to get too fluffy but I think there’s a few songs from the RRX weekend worthy of this year’s list.
6/13 Small Strides
6/14 Domino Theory
6/14 Phil’s Farm
6/14 2nd Fir slot
6/14 Bridgeless
6/15 Ringo
6/15 3X
Any thoughts, concerns, feedback?
Concessions didn’t have a jam apparently.
That doesnt matter anymore. Especially if it was at RR
I like it, but not sure how much longevity a 21 minute song with no improv will have going forward.

I’m aware, just like Unevolved only got two plays and now seems to be gone forever…
Kind of the opposite point and idea of a Stew I know, but I think there’s enough good stuff in both Concessions and Unevolved that you could make 4 good, cohesive songs out of so the material could continue to be tweaked and stay in rotation without either one taking up a third of a set.
I really feel like some of the jams from this year have been extraordinary. There’s some pretty good shit going on this year.
Yeah I’m thinking I just send it to bayfield tmrw and keep ter going
Do it pal
Updated list to include
6/20 Draconian
6/21 Ocean Billy
Is this just the good jams of 2024 thread now?
Threads an absolute nightmare
JOTY
4/24/24 - Kitchen
/thread
I think the phils and ringo>3x are the best from that list.
I thought that was the point of the thread. You post up the jams that get a little hubbub and occasionally somebody pipes up with what they think the JOTY is.
Fuck me for trying to do something productive and feel like I actually contribute around here.
I think historically it’s been a little more focused on quality.
Do you, playa.
Don’t take it personally, it’s just standard bort ball bustin’.
If you dig into previous JOTY Discussion threads you’ll see that every show doesn’t have a track making the list and rarely does a single show produce multiple possible JOTYs though.
