Haha, that wasn't the case. They just seem "ok" to me. I enjoyed the sets -- and I often dislike at least some of the music I hear at a festival -- and they were never great enough for me to feel like I had to go dig into their work and discover the music more. So, yeah, I can see what y'all're saying, I just wasn't aware of it at all.

At this point they're just a fun/energetic show and unless you already don't like them (which is the case with many on here) you will most likely have a good time. They're past their prime but what jam band isn't these days?

Today, I'm jamming to a new album from Medeski, Scofield, Martin & Wood.

Medeski, Scofield, Martin & Wood - Juice (album released September 16, 2014; steam via Spotify)

I think we can argue about this particular band and where their prime is, but the jam-band genre as a whole seems healthy and alive to me. Powerhouse artists like these are still churning out great albums, and up-and-comers are exploring the landscape.
