Random, Spontaneous Thoughts about UM (Part Pee)

You probably have me beat on tDB shows so we can call it a draw.

And SqFt.

What about Phish and moe.?

I’ve seen like 13 Phish shows and maybe 3 more shows. I’m honestly terrible at jambanding.

Has there been any talk about no fall tour this year? Feel like dates are usually announced by this point

Pretty sure it’s a no, minus their Hula and Vegas appearance.

The Lotus cobill and Vegas shows are technically summer shows. Hula is the only fall show. There was some quote from Stasik in a golf magazine interview iirc that they treat touring like a business in the sense they go hard Q1-Q3 then take it light in Q4.

I wish they’d bring back Rocktober!

I bet the 18 year old Stasik would kick his own ass if he knew that this is what he’d turn into.

Relistening to the vail show. I know the general consensus is that new songs suck, but the work sauce from this show is pretty rad. Good groove jam vehicle. Could easily fit into a synco slot

Gotta pick one, and death isn’t an option

  • Hiccup
  • Staircase

Which one has produced the best jams though?I’m currently relistening to the Asheville Staircase but the Red Rocks Hiccup is great too. Last summer there was a micro bliss Hiccup from the 4848 Festival iirc that I must have spun over two dozen times.

I go both ways when it comes to these songs. Not going to vote brah.

Staircase has really grown on me. Not enough of that type of prog electronic type of composition in UMs catalog, which obviously has lead to more creative UMprov. Love how they incorporated the 12-30-14 Blecho into it as well.

Staircase but Hiccup has a pretty good banger this year, 2/16.

Ahh good call, I knew it came from somewhere. The 10.30.2014 FF stew lives on

One of my favorites.

Staircase better song & Hiccup better vehicle

if you drink a glass of water, while upside down, UM is legally obligated to stop playing Hiccup.

also, escalator > staircase
