It’s already been pointed out that all the bands in our Tournament are not Jambands. That true, but we thought “Bands Headlining & Performing at this Years Top Jamband Festivals Tournament” was just a little too wordy.

We also understand that some people will completely disagree with our seeding. Our goal when forming our brackets was to seed bands based more on public opinion and less on our personal opinions. We also wanted to keep this from being a Lifetime Achievement Tournament. We don’t want people to vote based on a band’s full body of work but “who would you see right now?’

The reason we decided to do this was simple: FOR FUN! We hope that it can, and will, stimulate friendly debate & conversation. The beautiful thing about music & art is that it’s entirely subjective, and usually it’s personal. When it comes to music & art there isn’t a right or wrong answer because it’s tied too closely to our feelings and emotions. What might move you, doesn’t move me and that’s ok.

So…Good vibes, enjoy the tourney, and go see live music!
