Umph on the main stage and whoever in the tent. Love Umph...they rocked that pre-party show and I'm up for HOF putting HOF fan favorite in a headliner slot once in a while to get someone biglike a Springsteen, Justin Timberlake, or Pearl Jam on another night.
I hope you're right man. Sh*t, book Drake or The Weeknd and have them oppo. That'd be perfect.
Yeah, any pansy-ass pop or pop rap act vs. Umphrey's would be great. I'll take Umphrey's all day except I'm seeing them anyway with Tauk in April. Speaking of Tauk, it's about time Hangout recognized them as well. They are the most underrated band going now. Yeah, it's instrumental, and yeah, it's jazz. But so what? They run in the jam circuit where people appreciate their fresh take on progressive jazz. I've seen them 5 times in the last 12 months, and all the shows have been superb. Day Paladia or pre-party set would be most likely. Gimmie some Tauk Hangout.
Ill be seeing Tauk open for Umph next year myself. I remember seeing them on the waka lineup and thinking they sounded decent, open to giving them a more serious listen.
They have lots of live material on-line. I haven't looked at the UM tour yet, but I know they're playing here with Tauk the week between French Quarter Fest and Jazzfest. If they're actually on tour with UM, that's awesome. Those guys are that good live. We just saw them Thursday a week ago, then I saw them at NOLA Brewery and previously I saw them twice at Bear Creek last year.
They're paying their dues. It's a 4 piece band - drums, bass, guitar, keys mutli-ethnic and from NYC. I think Jabco told me the bass player is the owner of the NY Knicks' son. Check 'em out. They do some subdued stuff, but mostly it's pretty intricate. They are also incredibly tight live for a band that also improvises.
I think a jam band will never grace the main stage headliner spot again, unfortunately. Jam isn't pop enough and/or this festival is too popular. The only act might be DMB. UM on the Surf Stage closer as the sun goes down would be sweet. Perhaps as the pre-party closer. Of course, there is always the tent close for sure.
Ne215 are trying to figure out a random trip to see UM/Tauk, but they just announced shows in Austin and Dallas so there is that.
LOL @ Zaj. We haven't even gotten close to line up rumors and actual announcements. We're going bust inforoo with interwebz traffic.

Do you mean after Phish closes it down this year?
The jam has definitely been diminished, but there's always been a little jam, reggae and jam lite sprinkled in... Stay Floppy and Carry On!
Agreed. They can't always ignore what built this festival into a major. HUKA may not be involved anymore, but I think Shaul still likes that side. We ought to get Lettuce back too this year hopefully. I don't care if any of that stuff is on the main stage, but I like the jam break sets in between other sets of rock, reggae, EDM, rap, etc.
Scott, Sarah, a bunch of new friends, and I sorta jammed by the pool last year. LOL. Gotta get more participation and coordination in 2016. Warren Haynes is the masterjammer. IMO...Umph is jammy. Tedeschi-Trucks for sure. What is the lowest on the lineup you think they would accept? Hoping for another Jamel to blues us down.

...definitely, I was just referring to top two lines....didn't we have a pre-party that was RRE, Lotus & Umph?...anyway, I was responding to the no more top line jam comment...seems like they've continued to throw out some jambones...i'd be happy if they had a yearly 2hr jam surf closer.
Yeah, I caught that's what you were saying Solid. I was just throwing out a few others Only preparty I've ever been to was last year, and I forgot about The Word who is sorta jam.
The Word is definitely jamming. I guess jam is supposed to imply you ad lib and make music that is a first of its kind. But, Allman Brothers played amazing ten-twenty minute jams of traditional songs that took you on one heck of a musical roller coaster ride. I am definitely a jam, blues, folk type music lover.....with a little rock on the side.
