I'd like a chocolate ice cream sundae without the chocolate ice cream

Posted over 2 years ago
A guy walks into a soda shop and says, "I'd like a chocolate ice cream sundae without the chocolate ice cream." The soda jerks says, "We don't have any chocolate ice cream.""Give it me me without vanilla, then."If you asked for a jam band without the jam, you might get Dr. Dog. They took the stage last night looking suspiciously jammy. Scraggly beards - check. Ironic sunglasses - check. Goofy hat - check. 6 string bass - oooh, only 4 strings, a good sign.Most of the songs have a mid tempo guitar rock vibe, typically with shared vocals that wavered between singing and yelping. After a few pleasant songs I was waiting for something to go off the rails. However, thankfully, no extended solos, no instrumentals and no 20 minute 'blooz' breakdowns. Have a listen:

  1. Oatmeal says I liked that tune. Never heard of them, and jam bands most certainly don't make it onto my radar.
