Spafford was great before Cam, and when he came aboard there was of course a learning curve. Now though, what he does behind the kit pushes everyone on that stage to the next level. It’s one thing to have a good drummer. It’s another to have a great drummer. Then, in another category, there are the bands who not only have a great drummer, but a drummer who will challenge everyone on stage, in real time. Not just someone to hold the rhythm, but someone to keep you on your toes. I keep hearing examples of him dropping in subtleties that change the entire dynamic of a jam, and shift it into uncharted territory. This is essential for a jamband.

I’m a guitar guy, always and forever. When I listen to Spafford lately, I find my attention constantly shifting towards Cam. When I saw them in Raleigh, I watched Cam the entire night.

Anyway, sorry for the rambling, but Cam is KILLING IT!

I’m in!!

I’ve yet to see my first show, so I don’t have any stats yet. I will say, come Feb, you can bet I’ll be geeking out over my stats.

@damian I love the Philly show, for sure.

I think I officially have my first favorite Spafford Jam! This sequence has officially blown my mind. You know those moments when your enjoyment of a band kicks into tjay next gear, and you can generally pinpoint the shows or jams that do it each time? Well, I just had one of those moments, and man it’s glorious.

@myanruth I love it

Do they always play it after All My Friends? Is it just part of the song, or are there examples of a Bee Jam-less All My Friends?

So...this is random, but does anyone else hear this

@Cody pardon my noob, but I’ve been hearing a lot about this Abacalus Jam. What is it?

@Cody Asheville were supposed to be my first shows too! Unfortunatly I ended up sick.

@Cody unfortunately not.
