jam bands 

Relatively crude all-encompassing term for a group of bands who are musically quite disparate. Current jam band successes include such unique groups as Phish (closer to being straight rock than anything), String Cheese Incident (electric-grass or "acid grass"), Yonder Mountain String Band (more traditional bluegrass), Umphrey's McGee (prog-rock and jazz influences), Widespread Panic (Southern-ish rock), Blues Traveler (blues and power rock), Medeski Martin and Wood (jazz), etc. The originators of the phenomenon were the Grateful Dead, and Dead successors such as the Other Ones, Ratdog, and Phil Lesh & Friends carry the mantle of the Dead legacy today. The term "jam band" is of course rooted in the fact that all of these bands "jam," or improvise for long periods of time during their shows. Other characteristics of "jam band" status include dedicated traveling fan bases, close rapport with such fans, long sets at shows, etc.

A band that is too lazy and has done too much drugs to make songs with actual structure to them. Known to play songs that last up to 45 minutes long, usually consisting of the same guitar and drum beat for the whole time.

Members of jam bands usually try to dress wacky and act like they're individuals but in reality they more than likely almost joined an unreconigzed fraternity once.

You can usually see these "musicians" living in their parents houses for the rest of their lives so laced up on acid they actually think they're rockstars because a few drunk people told them they sounded good at a local downtown bar.
Yo dude, did you hear that jamband, Forman? Jeremy Wall from Spyro Gyro said they were awesome, so they have to be awesome!!!
