UM>MOE. (Jim is the man though)

Vitor Wooten vs Les Claypool = tough call

tough call on both.

um shreds more, but moe. just has some damn good songwriting.

and wooten may be more technically sound but les is downright dirty

Iiiiiiiii am a pinball machine iiiiiii can tell the difference between myyyyyyy belly button or navel ping pong pool cue or a foosball table.

I used to love moe. and still have a soft spot for some of their songs (Mcbain) but their last album pretty much sucked ass except for Zoz. Umphrey\'s on the other hand impress me more and more everytime.

As for Les vs. Vic, yeah vic is probably more technical, however Les (IMO) has created more completely origional music that really doesn\'t sound like anyone else. esp. w/ primus but his other projects are all pretty top notch (except for the one w/ gabby brown brown) as well.

I\'m listening to the up north um show right now, and it\'s not really impressing me at all. I\'ve heard better from them... and they are not really that improvisational, very technical.
