Random, Spontaneous Thoughts about UM (Part Pee)

I’m shocked at how inept Umphrey’s management is. Bisco has been gaining new fans and pumping out streams all fucking year, even if only audio.

In what world would you as band manager not push to have your bands streams hosted on Nugs? Do you all know who decides what shows will be streamed? Is it up to Nugs to decide? Or a combo of Nugs/band management?

You should beat up KB. I would watch. Maybe we can get nugs to do a free video stream

i think it literally just boils down to - they just dont care anymore lol

It really sucks to think how original and cutting edge UM was when it came to technology back in mid-2000s/2010s. They’re like a fuckin Circuit City - awesome tech back in the day but just totally irrelevant and defunct at this point

Spafford does video streams pretty much every show too, with a much smaller budget. At the Det show, they couldnt stream the Packers/49ers game on the TVs at their bar because Spafford was using up all the bandwidth lol.

I love when people on here reference fan count as if you’ve got some meter running at home

:roll_eyes: how much do you love it?

Also my meter is off the charts for Bisco… Umphrey’s not so much

You got yourself a Bisco fan clicker over there, Timmy Testosterone?

I sure do Mr. ‘Most boring motherfucker on here’

You sure engage a lot with someone so boring. Change the channel then, I’m sure you’re behind on Rogan podcasts or the latest Andrew Huberman regimen

I doubt UM themselves have much say. They seem like a very hands-off group these days

They trust their mangement/friend to do what is best. Problem is that he really fucking sucks at his job and is a total tool

I doubt Jake and BB have any clue how much people think their decisions suck

I feel like Joel mingles enough with fans to hear criticism.

I don’t listen to Rogan

Be more interesting

Is he on social media? I bet he does his best to let management handle things, too. Has to be better for your sanity

Maybe UM twitter is just really nice

No idea if this is true or not, but heard that the Biscuits might be stealing Mission Ballroom from UM for NYE

Lol. Regardless of all that, it blows my mind that jambands dont work together. Tribe at fillmore and tDB or UM at mission is so dumb. Spread out and work together for the sake of the #scene!
