i've seen them once or twice - nice enough show, but nothing that really caught my ear that much. out of the 'jam-band' scene today, i'm mostly a fan of Yonder Mountain, STS9, and MMW (who aren't a jam-band, but have a similar fan base)

currently there are way more bands who i like to see live over string cheese. i don't mind listening to them on cd, but lately when it comes to a live performance they can't really compare ...
at wakarusa they seemed so disconnected and not really all there ... new monsoon and railroad earth blew me away there ... 2 of the hottest bands at the moment
can't forget ymsb and sts9 ... 2 great acts
but i agree with your point, a lot of people are too faded to realize cheese isn't all that great ... they have their moments but i don't think they're consistent
i must say that, my first cheese show this year was at the fillmore in denver and it was amazing ... sometimes they're on point, sometimes not

I'd rather listen to Dead tunes back at camp than hang around for that stuff.

I seen them at festivals and once by themselves and they just don't do anything for me. I don't really like the jamband scene much myself. I like WSP, YMSB and MMW maybe a few others but for the most part I could do with out that scene entirely. I'm just a music fan, the scene around the jamband community is a disease.

am i the only big sci fan! i toured with them for a couple years and had tons of fun! the family there is really beautiful and kind... i had toured with phil and friends before that and could never go back... the dead scene just seemed so much darker to me after finding the cheese...
yes i agree there are "faded" kids on tour.. and it makes me sad.. it actually was one of the reasons i got off tour, just seeing kids get wasted night after night... but its like that on any tour it seems..
sci really has some beautiful family connected to it.. unlike any other ive seen... they have their ups and downs, as anyone will.. maybe they are going threw some changes right now, but they are magical, no doubt about that...
i really do love sts9 too.. a magical band with a beautiful family as well... truly connected to that divine spirit.. i guess everyone is entitled to their opinion, but someones gotta stick up for the cheese! i really owe them so much in the ways of happiness.. i learned so much from their music and their tour.. connected with so many beautiful people.. i actually met my wife at my first sci show! and i went to it with my dad and two sisters.. who also love the cheese!
hmm what else is there to say... but flowing negative vibes in anyones directions only creates negativity in your own life.. i dont go dissing the bands i dont like, why make a flame thread here? maybe we need to look at ourselves to see what we dont like in others..
just my couple cents..

glad to hear you could enjoy it... i don't think anybody flamed, so much as said "they aren't my thing".

SCI is incredible, there is this energy about them, and a feeling I always get while listening to their music...some people get it, some people don't, just like the Dead.

I wish I wouldve gotten to see sts9, but as many know they cancelled their wakarusa show.
I like string cheese however, get into their music, dance, groove out, and you'll like it too!

I wouldn't say horrible... overrated perhaps. But not horrible.

Yeah, I have had a lot of fun hanging out with some cheese heads, their is a lot of good people out there all over. I shouldn't dismiss the entire scene but their seems to be a ton of massive drug abuse everywhere I look, some people not getting along so good either. I guess I'm not really innocent either but I don't mix up the chemical cocktails some of the kids out there do. Dead related shows have by far my favorite vibe.

I like them, good tunes, I like bluegrassy jam stuff, as far as lot kids, there has been a decline in quality, but there some cool people still .

I love bluegrass and that's why I don't dig SCI, it's just to far removed from actual bluegrass. I can enjoy them if they are being played but I don't think you'll find me playing them on my own or going out of my way for a show.
