These dudes are nuts, unquestionably the best band to come out of the jam scene. Any other fans?

I'd expect you to at least like the deep jams in conduit dickarms. I am disappoint
I wrote them off as hippie bullshit for years. But I was wrong they're fucking awesome
Was hoping to see them in Aspen in March but it sold out immediately. Seriously considering going to Summercamp this year if I can form a crew to roll with. 5 sets of umphrey's, 5 sets of moe., Steve miller band, John butler. Sounds like a blast to me

Really talented guys but I cannot get into music like this.
Live, with some beers? Ok, maybe. But to just listen to?
God no.

I went through an Umphrey's phase a number of years ago. These days I can dig some of it. They are tight as hell though.

I've always thought of UmG as the ugly lovechild of Phish and Dream Theater.
Dudes can flat out JAM though. Just not my thing.
