lotus is great and all, when they don't go off the techno-club-rave deep end.
they dont seem to have a lot of songs, either. i think i got sargasso and some of their live stuff but from what ive seen it's limited quantity of songs

disco biscuits have some good stuff, i hate their lyrics and sound of the lyrics, though, and sometimes they play music that sounds like it's straight out of sonic the hedgehog or some sega game....lol
my friend is obsessed with disco biscuits, i dont really get how!

I don't mind them, but I'm so over that form of music unless I'm aimlessly playing it with some friends. It's cool and I'm glad they make thier living that way but I'm not putting them on my payroll. Zappa could mop the floor with any of these acts and there are modern marvels who are way beyond these travelling hippie acts. I guess I have just moved on, not that I won't be back from time to time.

Ive seen lotus a bunch of times. i have a video i shot of them at moe.down in turin ny in sept. the end of the song gets pretty heavy and dark, at least for lotus. take my word though, this band gets better everytime i see them.

What are the name of some of these modern marvels? Thanks

they were awesome at all good 07. from what can remember that is.
plus the benevento russo duo on like an hour later made my night.
what was up with bob weir coming out and cutting off the duo after they had started playing so he could do an encore.
i mean i understand your a pretty big star and all, but that dude seems soo full of himself.

Yeah, I feel disco bisquits just has some bitchin promoter that gets these college town gigs and every frat kid loves them.
LOTUS, by far, one of my top favorites bands. Saw them the first time in Langerado 2-3? yrs ago? prob 2... anyhow, last year I made the drive to see them in Indiana... oh my fuck, yo, download the set from Indiana Jam Bash, the acoustics are perfect as the place wasn't packed and OOoooooohhh they let it go... I first heard them in the day and it was beautiful but indiana was at night... 2:30am to be precise... they were creepily fantasticily enticing... MMMMMMMMMMmmmmmmmmmm they were fucking good.
But those assholes never come down south for any shows except for langerado, and personally, their night show is worth a 12hr drive.
There's probably been 3 groups/bands/DJs I've written emails to that have totally blown me away and just enveloped my heart in soul into their masterpeice of sound and Lotus is one of them. hehe, just to stress how much I like them 
Disco Biscuits < Lotus
Umphrey's McGee is another highly promoted group... I like them but I hate it when they fuck up a groove they get going. Either way, Lotus is greater than both, in my totally credible opinion.

Les Claypool Jackie Green MMW Skerik Bela Fleck The people behind Zappa plays Zappa 10,000 others you will never hear because they don't understand promotion. Not that this isn't just my personal opinion.
