Widespread Panic

“just saw this band on Directv Freeview and am blown away.
Called "Live from the backyard in Austin, TX".
This is one good band. Kind of Deadesh, but very tight.
Great party music.
Any fans out there can tell which CDs to buy?”

“Ya they do rock!

Get all of them!

“I also recommend all Panic cds.
Very sweet band!”

“They're good, but they're no Hunt the Wumpus.

j/k, kind of.”

“I saw that too and if you liked it then you're really in for a treat as I only thought that was a decent show. That must have been a recent show b/c it didn't have their recently deceased guitarist, Mickey Houser, who is way better than the guy who guest starred (although he wasn't bad). A previously mentioned everything they do is great. My fav. cd is "Ain't Life Grand."”

“Thanks sample!

Artex - Isn't Hunt the Wumpus a "Funk" band rather than a "Jam" band like Widespread Panic?
I have to be in a "Funky" mood to enjoy that type of music. Small doses.
I think I could listen to Panic a long time.”

“widespread has been around for a long time it's just that within the last 5 years theyve become um widespread”

“oh, i wish i saw that! i haven't heard a whole lot of Panic, but what i've heard, i've liked...better than Phish and Dead and whatnot. i like that one that goes, "My name is treetop, and I'm higher than all of you..."”

“Stovestomper - you're thinking of some now broken up upper midwest band who stole the name of my band, "Hunt the Wumpus". They're gone now (thank God) and the REAL Hunt the Wumpus lives! I'm pretty much the only member, since it's all electronic music.”

“widespread's great...haven't heard a cd i didn't like yet anyone know of any tour rumblings?”

“electronic music? ick.

lyra - Do you have Directv? It's only showing on it.”

“Blue Oyster Cult was on that same day I think. Don't fear the reaper dude.”

“alas, no Directv.”

“szure widespread is better than phish or the dead

only if you havent heard/dont know that much of eithers music”

“i've been subjected to endless amounts of Dead and Phish. i went to a Phish concert, which was fun as all hell...but when it comes to just listening to a CD, i'd rather not. both of them are too jammy and happy for me. i do admit, i haven't heard many of Panic's songs...”

“i got your email, StoveStomper! i emailed you back.”
