That's just the initial lineup, I would assume either Warren or the Mule will be listed at some point.

Only thing that would ever get me back to that festival with the monstrosity it has become is two nights of two set Gov't Mule headline shows. Since I know that will never happen again it makes it very easy to pass on what was once a great festival which has morphed over the years into a big expensive $$$$$$ grab.

you fools...you fools....Gary Clark jr. is more than enough reason to make the journey. Add in the space cowboy and it is a done deal. I'll be mt. jamming for the 4th time. Plus the Mule will be added of course.

X2....The final nail in the coffin of a once great festival. In my opinion it began to go down hill the year it became a 4 day festival. Once that happened the promoters needed to squeeze every last penny of revenue from every source imaginable to cover the fourth day of expenses.

Just as bad in my opinion, was the first year Mule no longer headlined Friday and Saturday night. As Sixty eluded to, those years when Mule played two nights were just epic.

Add to that the booking of more mainstream acts the past few years and less and less "jam bands" and we now have the sh*t sandwich of a festival they're calling Mt. Jam 2017. I had ten good years of Mt. Jam, all of them great.....Oh well, all good things come to an end eventually... 🙁

I did read an interview with Warren the other day in which he confirmed that he would not be a part of this years lineup.

Wonder why that is. Conflicts with ABB summer 'reunion' tour dates?

Warren is not going to do that and Gregg could not pull off a summer Allmans tour in any event.
