There's like freaking 10 threads on the front page alone. Should they get their own board?
Seems to attract college age students. Anyone over 30 on here still into it?

People followed The Dead for decades. This is not a new phenomenon.

I don't get it, either. I had a few friends into Widespread Panic and such while in college during the late '90s, but the obsession over jambands on this board is ridiculous.

And to answer your question, it's because Phish is awesome. Most jambands suck though.
And there's literally only 2 jam band threads on the front page right now on this board. 3 I guess if you count the Allman Brothers thread. The MB crew just posts more than anyone else on here, and the MB crew likes jambands

Jam band fans have the most to discuss because every show is different, mon

I'm 38 and I went and saw Phish in OB last month. CSB. I know.

I was really into them through my 20s (followed mainly the Dead and Phish around), and I pretty much grew out of it in my 30s. I still like to listen to the Dead some, but I missed out on a lot of music and great shows in my 20s through my single-minded focus on the jam band scene.
I still have a lot of friends in their 40s who are mainly into jam bands and spend their vacations going to see Phish, Panic, and others.

It really is annoying and they are very pseudo intellectual about their crappy music. At least get into classical or jazz or something that's worth getting deep about. fricking stoner music (unless it's jazz) sucks so hard.

A lot of the allure has to do with the jam/band festival culture

Everyone is welcome to post whatever they want about their favorite music but this board is dead whenever there's a lack of jambandish discussions. People always bitch about this board but no one else seems to use it.
