Shallow thinking. I know a lot of sober people in the jam scene - some in recovery and some who have never done any drugs. I also know drug users who hate jam bands - they come from all walks of life.

Classical music is often long compositions. Is that because of drugs too?

Idiot

Lol. No, you're right, drugs were never associated with bands like The Dead and Phish. Straight edge living right there. Sorry I insulted you and your druggie buddies.

Are we comparing jam bands to Mozart now?

Songs can be long but still be focused. Aja by Steely Dan for instance is 8 minutes, but flows naturally and is really beautifully composed. I'm a big fan of bands that play long, extended breakdowns and such of all genres like death cab, steely dan, mmj, tool, intronaut, Mae, deerhunter, etc, but just never got into jam bands.
