The grooving vibes and the vibin’ grooves will be happening again at the Kent Stage as four of the area’s younger jam bands gather for a show they’re calling “Danksgiving.”
What is that, you ask, with Thanksgiving still a couple of weeks away?
Let the Urban Dictionary explain: “A holiday traditionally held on the Sunday after Thanksgiving, Danksgiving is a celebration and time to give thanks for man’s ability to fuck himself up. To this end, many traditional Danksgiving meals are prepared, often some spin-off of Thanksgiving foods but typically with marijuana and/or alcohol being incorporated into the ingredients. Pot brownies, potatoes with cannabutter ….”
OK, we get the idea. Now why would a group of jam bands be doing THIS, we wonder? Hmmmmm ….
Anyway, with Aliver Hall’s happy grooving and Broccoli Samurai’s “jamtronica” rapidly establishing them as big kahunas of the local jam scene and up-and-comers Vibe & Direct and Escape Pod all getting together at the Kent Stage, jam fans should be getting nicely buzzed — on the MUSIC, we mean.
Tickets are $1o in advance, $12 at the door.
