Bumping this one up before tomorrow's big matchup @aatgoosepod.bsky.social @hosewood.bsky.social

Boise Rosewood 6/1 ➡️ JOTY@los-feliz-ghost.bsky.social · 10mo ago

Starting my JOTY push for Boise Rosewood 6/1. To my ears, it might be the best @goose-band.bsky.social jam since SF Wysteria 1/30/22. Griff's Picks said it best on IG: It's a Mt. Rushmore jam. @aatgoosepod.bsky.social

My first @goose-band.bsky.social show was four years ago today. Looking back at my message to my Phish groupchat back then and... it holds up I guess? Yes the name of the chat was "quadrecta." 🤷🏻‍♂️

Last bracket thought today. I know I've been annoying on this point before, but maybe we shouldn't make the highest-ranked 1-seed, 2/15 Madhuvan, have to go through the highest-ranked 2-seed, 2/8 EMG, to get to the final four? @aatgoosepod.bsky.social

Hey @aatgoosepod.bsky.social @hosewood.bsky.social did this list end up getting posted somewhere? I can't find it...

Manifesting GR EMG 2/13 making it to the final four out of this surprisingly weak region IMHO. @aatgoosepod.bsky.social

JFYI I was able to post it once I shortened it from 999 characters to 701 characters @hosewood.bsky.social

I've been unable to post my JOTY comment for one of today's matchups for some reason (keep getting the "failed to post comment" error), so I'll leave it here in the meantime 🙃 @aatgoosepod.bsky.social

2025 was such a top-heavy year of jamming for @goose-band.bsky.social, IMHO. Many of the top 64 feel subpar when compared to last year's. And yet, you could put any of these 4 on Goose's Mt. Rushmore and I wouldn't bat an eyelash.

Better than any Myst in the bracket

Last-minute @goose-band.bsky.social JOTY rankings for 2025. Let the games begin! @aatgoosepod.bsky.social @6r0m7.bsky.social @j-v-g.bsky.social 2nu.gs/48Y1lRN

Sorry for beating a dead horse, but Goosemas N1 this year might have the best slate of covers they've ever put together in a single show. Goosemases past have always had killer covers. (2023 in particular was wild.) But N1 from this year feels like it was on another level.

On repeat all week @goose-band.bsky.social

In terms of "best jam @goose-band.bsky.social has played at a festival," Hula Tumble 11/2/25 has to be up there. My vote would still probably go to either Borderland Rosewood 9/15/23 or Solshine EMG 5/26/24 (or maaaaybe Northlands Jive Lee 6/14/24). But I dunno. That Hula Tumble is a stunner.

(1 of 2) Have we discussed how Westville All I Need 6/29/25 is a reprise of the Echo from Mountain Jam a week earlier? @aatgoosepod.bsky.social

Thanks @jarmojams.bsky.social. That was fun. I do think Cap N1 3/8/23 deserves to be on there. (I'd rank it over LA 9/27/24 and Chicago 9/20/25, and I was at both of those shows.) I'm also lower on MSG than most. Otherwise, 10/10. No notes. Feels like, with Goose, the best is yet to come.

I don't know why this didn't occur to me before, but November 22nd is a helluva day for my two favorite bands @phish.com and @goose-band.bsky.social. (Going with the Hampton Tweezer here because I feel like it doesn't get enough love.)

*sees respect for MKE Arcadia 2/6, Atlas 2/7, Arrow 2/7, and Big Modern 2/8; Toronto Arcadia 2/10; and GR Hungersite 2/15*

Hey @6r0m7.bsky.social can I get this in Excel? 😘 You have my email, sir! We're still moving stuff around but this is coming into focus. “2025 Goose” #JOTY #GooseBracket 2nu.gs/3LMIEax

Updated @goose-band.bsky.social JOTY rankings for 2025! Winter Tour remains undefeated, but some gems from summer and fall are working their way into the mix. 2nu.gs/4o4umiX @aatgoosepod.bsky.social @j-v-g.bsky.social @cptn-incredible.bsky.social @6r0m7.bsky.social @basty-michael.bsky.social

It's no longer the 🐐 Dripfield (my vote probably goes to either Grand Rapids 2/14/25 or Phoenix 6/4/25), but it's still a thing of beauty.

This will always be glorious AF

Milwaukee 2/7/25 is a hall-of-famer from a jamming perspective. (I could've done w/o the Cali Magic + Flodown combo to end set 1, but that's another story.) It's absurd to have 4 jams of this caliber in the same show, and that's excluding the excellent Arrow jam. Winter Tour, man 🥵🥵🥵

Damn. That is an ELITE short jam.

Criminally underrated jam right here
