Please Don’t Piss Off The Biscuits Fans

Last week Philly-centric blog Philebrity took a backhanded slap at the Disco Biscuits in a post about this year’s Jam On The River line up. This didn’t sit too well with fans of the jamtronica act, who took to the messages boards to rip into the site. Ever the gracious hosts the blog allowed some Bisco fans to defend their band to the masses, posing these questions to them – “Tell us why you like this band. Tell us why people follow them around like the Grateful Dead. Tell us, for the love of God, what this is all about.”

Kudos to three writers who put some thought into their prose, but something tells me you’re going to piss off a whole other group of jam fans with this statement….

“In the world of patchouli-smelling and nugget-smoking noodle-dancers (hippies, that is…of both the genuine and pseudo variety) the Disco Biscuits are the derelict bastard-child – the dark and gritty element that offers contrast to a music scene full of unicorns, hula-hoops and fans that would, quite honestly, put a funnel to their ears to catch every drop of ejaculate from Trey Anastasio’s heroin-riddled penis…It would be difficult to find more critical music fans than that of the Disco Biscuits. The band draws equal amounts of love and hate from their devoted head-boppers and fist-pumpers… often resulting in overly-critical and caustic reviews of their shows and efforts.”

Jam On The River takes place Memorial Day Weekend at Penn’s Landing and will feature the likes of The Flaming Lips, RJD2, Josh Ritter, Lotus and American Babies.
