I think there is alot of cool stuff going on right now with all the jam bands coming out and following in the wake of Phish and the dead, its been along time since I heard a guitar solo in a song. The next couple of years are gonna be good times musically I think. Here are some bands to watch out for;
String Cheese, Deep Banana Blackout, Moe, 5 for Fighting, Trane, Indigeneous and many others whose names escape me......
