Everybody knows Phish was an underachieving band. As for Al and the Transamericans, they are clearly the worst band to ever play a gig in the history of the universe. It surprised me considering all the members, especially Al, are so talented and such great players. But the Transamericans were basically a shitty blues/ folk derivative band, with no jamming whatsoever, and endless crappy folk lyrical slow songs and ballads.
