if I have my choice, neither!
I’ll take “Neither” for $400, Alex!
well i can now say i have seen both of these bands…at the same show nonetheless…i think my overall attitude towards them is ‘meh’ as many of you have said…let me start by saying i’m not really familiar with any Bisco, I was more familiar with Sound Tribe goin into the show and they were the real reason I got my ticket…I listened to some of The Wind At Four To Fly the day of the show which actually got me a little pumped to be seeing the Biscuits, but I can’t say they really delivered, early in the show I was actually enjoying the jams quite a bit, but after a while i did start to think this is all starting to get repetitive…
As for STS9, I think I’ve decided, yes this will sound weird, I enjoy blasting their music in the car and stuff more than I enjoyed the show itself…I don’t know if their sound is powerful enough for me in an outdoor amphitheater, I wish I had caught them at the Tabernacle cause I think I would’ve enjoyed it much more, also I was at the very back of the lawn, by choice kind of, not because of a sold out crowd or anything…it seems to be true you need to be 
to enjoy it from beginning to end, which isn’t really cool with me…and something that i’ve told Jay is that I don’t understand how exactly they make some of the sounds they are making on stage which means i can’t necessarily fully appreciate the talent involved, so sometimes I would just think how is this really being made? nonetheless, I really enjoy Murph’s sound…so when he laid something good down i was all good…
I am the same way with pretty much all electronic music that I like. Really, that consists of two main artists: STS9 (2007 and older) and Emancipator. I would not go see either of them live, but it can make for really good driving music if I’m in the mood for it.

And yeah Levi, indoors is the way to go for Tribe.
But fwiw, I’ve never been anything more than stoned at a Tribe show and always enjoy them from beginning to end. Like i said, they’re definitely not for everyone, but kudos to you for giving them a shot.

^ That’s my fave Disco Biscuits song 
Levi–great post-- up there somewhere!
That’s EVERY Disco Biscuits song. 
Yeah, someone posted another video of that… not a fan.
I’ve never been able to get into TDB but I love me some tribe. They are super talented and they are doing their own thing. Good grooves and songs. I’m going to see them in a few months.
But whoever mentioned lotus, i fully agree. One of my favorite jambands hands down. Seen them multiple times and they represent the nonexistant Pennsylvania jam scene. Always a great dance party. For those who haven’t heard them, find their all good 2010 set on archive. It was absolutly amazing.
I mean check out this song. They are pretty sweet you must admit. I can see how those who don’t like the electronic sounds wouldn’t like it but still. Yeah, but sometimes you need to be spun .
That Shakedown isn’t all that bad…I mean I’ve heard many worse Dead covers over the years…such as any time Warren Haynes covers a dead song, or Keller Williams for that matter.
^Haha… yeah, I hear ya about Keller… but still… this shouldn’t have even been called Shakedown Street. If Sector 9 had called it “Electronic Jam inspired by the Grateful Dead’s Shakedown Street and Isaac Hayes’s Shaft” I may have bought it. But to say this was a cover of Shakedown Street is a stretch, at the very least.

Not a bad band at all. Cut out the electronics and they are great and talented musicians.
haha wow, I dont log on here very much at all any more and I was SHOCKED to see this on the first page of this forum!
And yes, 4+ years later… I am still ALL about STS9 and really dont care to much about the Biscuits, although I dont mind listening to certain songs, I usually preffer the studio versions of those songs.
i’m still a huge tDB mark. the halloween shows in charlottesville were great.
Personally, I think tDB studio stuff sucks…being at their live shows as opposed to just listening to their live shows are 2 different things too…being at a show w close friends can be great - great vibes, great lights.
For Tribe, they are kinda up n down for me when it comes to their live shows. I definately agree about bumpin some of their tunes in the car. But I’ve seen em play mediocre shows and great shows…
For what both of them are worth, I’d say the winner goes to STS9 for me.
