yeah, I have seen them 2x, but I gave up on them after the last tour £125 a seat for nosebleeds was a kick in the face. Still a great band but they have been around for 30+years

Yeah ticket prices are out of this world. You are right.. Tool is old like I am. Just know my 20-something niece and her friends love them now.

There are a ton of young bands coming up in the jam band scene if you are open to that.

yeah defo.

Im in a band and on a quest to write the cool stuff thats in my head, but it doesnt come out right. I want to hear what is new and hitting because all my influences are old. Im looking for a new twist on my tastes and die trying.

So the big, young jam band group is Goose. I have seen them twice in concert and they are amazing. Their New Year's Eve show is on YouTube and is a good one. They release almost all their shows for free and high quality on YouTube or the Bandcamp app. Albums are all on Spotify, but jam bands are best experienced live.

Dogs in a Pile, Magic Beans, Spafford Pigeons Playing Ping Pong is from my hometown and recently played two sold-out shows at the 9:30 Club in DC. I just saw Papadosio live for the first time. They are trance-jam with a big electronic component. I really love them, but clearly not for everyone. Ghost Light. Wow. They are a fantastic up-and-coming jam band. I am excited to see them this summer at a huge music festival.
