Hi Tikibars,

My observation is hampered by having avoided jam band shows!

I went to two dead shows in my life.

I only went to the second one to make sure the first one was as bad as I thought.

I have one more obeservation I'd like you to verify, though.

At the Dead show, I saw people with the worst sense of rhythm, ever.

Do all the crowds at jam band shows dance to a random beat that has nothing to do with the music?

My wife says that the Dead crowd gave me my 'cooties' posture, where I walk around with my hands crossed across my chest, shoulders a little forward - not wanting to touch anything.

The people seemed very nice, though. I don't mean to over-judge.
