  Ep 3 is good, but hasn\'t been played nearly enough to be called epic.

  
  How does that have anything to do with it not being epic? It\'s been around for over 2 1/2 years and always makes any show it\'s played at that much better. One of the best things about it is how infrequently it gets played. The same goes for Mooboo\'s Voodoo (Episode 2).

• It\'s just my opinion.  I don\'t dislike the song, but I don\'t get the same feeling when I hear Ep 3 as I do with Moobo or TGSOT.  My point was that if it was played more, it might grow on me and work it\'s way up to epic.

• I agree, Ep. 3 is absolutely epic and its infrequency just adds to its epicness. And yes, Rush rocks my ham hocks off. Love it love it love it.

  Isnt Epp4 "A New Beginning", in which case you can hear it for yourself its been played a few times..
  
  But come on Mooboos Voodoo rules the episodes
  
  Damn I remember when PB shows used to be like a 50% chance of hearing Epp2.... now its such a rarity.

  whats a type 2 jam?

  
  a jam that deviates completely from the original beat/melody/time signature of the song which is being jammed
  
  Think of most of the post hiatus ghosts or tweezers in phish history - many of them go into type 2 jams

  Quote

  Type I and Type II: John Flynn raised (date?) the distinction between two "types" of jamming. Type I jamming involves variations on a song\'s written notes and tempo; Type II jamming involves additional variations on structures and keys. Or, as he put it:
  
       I think Phish jamming falls into two types of jamming:
           1)  Jamming that is based around a fixed chord progression
           2)  Jamming that improvises chord progressions, rhythms,
                and the whole structure of the music.
  
  Pornofunk / Type III: __ suggested (date) adding to the typology Type III jamming to categorize the funkified sound (a.k.a "porno-funk") that evolved throughout 1997, and particularly on the summer and fall US tours, especially in Also Sprach, Cities, Ghost, Gumbo, and Wolfman\'s Brother. Some feel that this is not a "type" of jamming, but something closer to a genre, and that Types I and II jamming could occur within various contexts, of which Phish adopts many (rock, jazz, funk, reggae, folk, bluegrass, et al.)
