Umphrey's McGee 

The best band you've never heard of. Are hardly a "jam band" because they put every other band in the field to shame with their ridiculous musicianship. Consists of six accomplished musicians, half of which have college degrees in music. Songs are a mixture of technical, tightly composed music (featuring odd time signatures, unexpected key changes, and brilliant melodies), excellent lyricism, and UM's hilarious sense of humor, puncutated by the amazing guitar playing of Brendan Bayliss and Jake Cinninger and drumming of Kris Myers. Definitely music for musicians, but can be enjoyed by all.
Too bad bands like Umphrey's McGee, Medeski Martin and Wood, and Bela Fleck are lumped into the jam band genre.

Umphreak 

Umphreak (noun): generally, a fan of the progjam band Umphrey's McGee.

When in reference to a male, refers to an Umphrey's fan, who most likely has an embarrassing past history with acne and Rush or, worse yet, Dream Theater. Has since moved on to appreciate musical composition, has garnered respect for jazz, and now washes more regularly with soap.

When in reference to a female, refers to the rare girl with an advanced musical taste, a penchant for stimulating drugs and the inclination to sleep with anyone who knows the words to All Things Ninja. Will shake her ass to the 40's Theme after drinking.
Parent 1: My son sure does enjoy listening to Umphrey's McGee with your daughter. Reminds me of when my wife and I would listen to Emerson, Lake and Palmer and Pink Floyd.

Parent 2: Yes, but I doubt you ever humped your wife in rhythm to all the time signatures in Conduit like those two Umphreaks.
