We are taking about a jamband that plays 2 set shows. I believe this is chap’s (and my) point!
Other non-jamband touring acts are completely irrelevant to this convo.
It’s like me complaining that my Prius isn’t getting good gas mileage and people saying “but do you even drive a truck?!”
I just couldn’t help but laugh when I read the post I quoted. “I’m being rushed and can’t walk around the venue!” lol
I just feel like if there’s anywhere you can reasonably expect things to happen “like they do at jamband shows,” its at… jamband shows?
“Regurgitated” because this (one set shows) has come up periodically in the last 20+ years of replacing brain cells with jamband clout. STS9 (a jamband) switched to one set shows for a couple tours and there was roughly as much outrage poured on their boards as when New Coca Cola was introduced. The Biscuits (a jamband) dealt with it on the laughably bad Identity Festival run. Spafford (a jamband) gets hammered on it now and then since they’re in the twilight of 4th tierism and have to play a fair amount of single setters. Hell, even with STUMS9 and DUMB tours (jamband cobill tours), it comes up.
To suggest people shouldn’t expect the jamband formula at jamband shows just feels like reaching to me. And I mean, living in the extreme south, I get very few chances to see UM, so I’d be jumping at a single setter in my city, regardless of price. I just don’t think being dismissive of the expected formula adds to the discussion.
This is the most I’ve earnestly borted in years. Back to shitposts.
I’ve literally never been more excited for a concert than I am for UM’s Salt Shed debut. I’ve been lightheaded since yesterday morning with all the blood flowing to my dick. two sets, one set, dipset, we’re blasting the Diplomats all night post show.
Mf who do you think you’re talking to?
Like I said, I’m sure it’ll still be fun as fuck. But 2 sets + encore makes me cummed my pant even more
who has time to walk around at setbreak. I need all 30 mins to debate whether my puddled ass should finally throw out the empty Bud heavy can I’ve been holding for the last hour.
NVM, I’m on team single-set.
I guess I took ”the concert experience” to mean all concerts. Sorry if I misunderstood.
Y’all still complain too much
I’m sure UM will play some sort of terrible song mid-set that will give you an opportunity to step aside and readjust your mindset while placing the can in the recycling bin.
Comparison is the thief of joy. See ya Saturday tho bud, let’s have a blast
Part of me wishes I could make it down to Indy so I can either fluff an incredible one-setter or bitch about how terrible the show was.
DIP
Not happening, SUAR
I SEENT IT, you should probably still do it
you are all getting what you deserve.
come on, man. really? none of us needed to be subjected to:
@SchladopianFir I think I have 2 free tickets you can have. A friend in Chicago asked if I was coming because he won free tickets and when I said I wasn’t he made it sound like he’s not going and would give those tickets to someone. Assuming he sends them to me then they are yours.
Cough cough I’ll take one if Jason only needs one
she replied to me, bucko!
