the perfect jam in the perfect place ....Carlos's single cut is why I got Kenai Jade
Just to clarify before I put my foot in my mouth...
Is a jam band a band that plays a catchy little riff or melody
and then they all play solos over the chord changes and then
go back to the original riff or melody once in a while?
I’ll try my best to not **** on the OP because my favorite band probably started the genre without knowing it and that’s the ABB. Sure the GD gets credit for it but the ABB were doing it before it was “cool.”
IMO jam bands are for the guys in the band.
You can cover just about any song and nobody complains, especially the audience. More often than not jam band audiences are rolling and could care less about the song that’s being played, how loud it is, or how long it lasts. And that’s where I get off. Who wants to play the same three chords for 15 minutes at a time while everybody does three solos?
