Sounds like a bunch of bros who didn’t catch enough shows in 2019.
Somebody once told me that an UM show was like a Broadway play. Enjoyably predictable and you could bank on the sets ending precisely on time.
10/9/08 is a better Clifton Park show than 11/2/11.
I feel like you said that and then I repeated it back to you on a different car ride. Or did you hear it from someone else originally?
I heard it from somebody a long time ago and usually just treat it like my own original thought
I disagree, but I can see why people think that. I don’t agree at all that 1/27 is better than 11/2 as far as 2011 shows.
I mean it’s not even close really.
1/27/11 > 11/2/11
1/27 just doesn’t have that “sound”.

7:15 more minutes of improv
1/27/11 > 11/2/11
So by your logic biscuits > UM.
I’ll meet you there.
I’m actually following your logic so thanks for agreeing
1/27/11 > 11/2/11
Quality > Quantity
There needs to be a certain amount of improv in a show to satisfy me by virtue of them being a jam band. I don’t go to shows to see a ton of standard songs
Complaining about them not jamming long enough and then telling me a show that they jammed less at is better than a show they jammed more at does not compute
2009 is a better year than anything from 2014-2019. More creativity, less scripted jams.
Also 7/1/11 is better than 1/27/11 and 11/2/11
Hit me with your top 3 09 bangers.
I’d agree 2014-2017 but they definitely turned the corner in 2018-19
7/11/09
2/14/09
Song selection: 11/2
Improv quality: tie
Improv amount: 1/27
Encore: 11/2
2-1 11/2 wins
You mean the show with 22 minutes less of improv than 1/27? Nah dawg
