Zach has done a couple of shows at Sugarbush. I think his guitar play is one of the best reflections of Jerry’s style

Back to reality. Heading back home. Amazing trip. More later

The drug den music they are playing on Saturdays now is so much better!

Apparently an old deadhead is complaining without irony about the kids and their “drug den music”

It looks like you have not been to Sugarbush this year. On Saturdays they are playing modern EDM music thru the new courtyard music system above Johnny's Juice Box. I think it's a fairly up to date play list of new stuff, at least new to me. A couple weeks ago I was Shazamming tracks to see what they were playing but with no luck. It's the first time in 25 years being there on a steady basis that they played music I actually like! And it appears to me the younger crowd actually likes it too!

This truly made me laugh out loud, thank you very much! Yup, I completely missed the irony of what I typed. We were hanging out with friends Saturday and one called it drug den music which I thought was a great comment. Just to age myself, saw the Dead like 8 times, Bobby and the Midnights and JGB back before having my eyes to music opened up by punk rock in about 1978. Never looked back, except when at Sugarbush where the music never stopped... until this year!

The Sugarloaf apres dj was playing for the courtyard in a repainted gondola cabin (fallen and shipped from from Sunday River?). It was a series of bad pop/classic rock edm remixes. The crowd was LOVING it.

I'm not thrilled that moe. is touring with Umphrey's this summer. UM bores the living hell out of me. I've tried. Been to probably ten UM shows over the years. Tried again last summer and was bored. Their shredding talent is undeniable, but they can't write songs to save their life. Same is true of many jam bands. I wouldn't count moe. among them. They have some fantastic songs.
