    Don't know how obscure you're trying to get, but one of the better known bands is Gov't Mule. I was listening to The Deepest End this morning.... It's a great Double CD with some AWESOME jams....

    Phish, Grateful Dead, Widespread Panic, Gov't Mule, Umphrey's Mcggee, ostyerhead, anything by Les Claypool, just to get ya started. I'm just getting into it myself, but after seeing widespread at B'roo I'm now full into the jam scene.

    Not a big fan of the scene, but Gov't Mule is excellent. Warren Haynes is a beast!

    I dig Warren.

    But that band Umphrey's McGee.

    Oh Lord.

    I hope I never accidentally happen upon one of their shows again.

    They soooooooo do not work for me!!!!!!

    Mike Gordon is touring right now if you want to check him out. He was the bass player from Phish. I liked Phish ok (probably less than I would have if I hadn't dated a total phan who listened to them all the time), but I like Mike's stuff a little better. He is definitely a great bass player.

    just remember the term "jam band" is almost as generic as "grunge band"

    many will argue that all jam bands sound alike, which is just untrue. personally, two of my favorite bands (besides PJ obviously) are moe. and the disco biscuits. i can see a diehard PJ fan digging moe. much more than they would the disco biscuits.

    but i'll throw another one out there for you: RAQ. i can definitely see PJ fans liking RAQ b/c they don't always jam for the sake of jamming. and they have that rock element. too bad their touring schedule has slowed down.

    he is my shameless plug for RAQ (two shows i taped earlier this year). if your unfamiliar with the LMA, you can stream them before you d/l. there are a bunch of jambands included:
