I was lucky enough to get a personal JBism. The boys were going to be playing Telluride on my 30th Birthday. At a meet and greet before Red Rocks I told him wanted to thank him advance for throwing me a party to celebrate the big day. In his best JB voice tells me "Well you must be worth something then!"
Widespread Panic talks about the improvisational aspects of playing live, how the band has progressed with Jimmy Herring, and the improv 'raps' that John Bell does which have been come to be called "JBisms". Recorded June 2013.
That's funny. Just gotta let things be. Sometimes it's better to smile, than to say hey "wow that was cool, let's talk about it" aka ruining the vibe 😂
What JB said at the end , in regards to playing music . And playing songs in the conventional way . And also , then playing songs in the improvisational way . It definitely is like opening a different dimension - as he said . He s right . The entire explanation is long , JB . But you're right . The human bieng , the musician taps into ' something ' beyond the everyday structure .... Samael Aun Weor's books describe all of that . It's tremendously broad . -
reality check is a hater. Best vocalist is arguable depending on taste, as is any absolute statement, but I personally have not seen an interview with a music biz pro who came off as a nicer guy, except maybe Jimmy Herring lol. I’m sure there are lots of nice folks in the business, but “absolutely not” doesn’t even argue the point, it’s just what someone says when they don’t believe someone but can’t think of anything to show they’re wrong.
Yes! People usually only give an RIP to Mikey. I know Todd had some struggles, and it caused some problems for the band, but he was there from the beginning and helped give their sound.

Excellent stuff. Thanks 🍻
Don't worry about the JBisms, JB...just have fun and enjoy what is going on each night. We're all just dreamers on our bar stools.
Sweet! Proud of you Brotha Justin Lamascis! Love it!
4:11 the hard part was remembering all these 'blinking' songs...the crux of all lead guitarist s.
Nov. 15 in Bawstin - Can't wait!
I promise I'll be gone before all the respectable church people (show up).... epic!

Like a fine bottle of wine, getting better with age.

xylotone0110 Phil Lesh talks about the same thing on that Netflix miniseries on the Dead. He called it collective improvisation.
I love how Mr. bell sounds completely different then his “thank you very much” on stage 😂😂
Lmao right? I was surprised to hear his speaking voice, hes so much more meek and mild when hes just talking 😹
That’s his stage voice!
Best band ever!!!!
is John Bell the best vocalist and nicest guy in the business right now?

Ride the wave boys!
these guys clearly get it! Thank you for posting WSMFP!
Aww. I'm so sad that someone brought JB's "isms" to his attention. I totally know how that feels. That feeling makes it difficult to let go.
listen to 4 cornered from 10 27 23. he was wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy out there. pure vocal meltdown
no expectations JB. none. love you
Jimmy is the only one who should’ve and even could’ve stepped in. It was widespread magic and channeling when that happened.
If people are aware im doing it, its not spontaneous anymore and I'm like I deer in the head lights.
I remember Hatfield's momma
This video is allsum. WSMFP y'all!
these guys are freakin awesome
what we need is MORE FALCON CRY!!!
what are JBisms?
wow I did not know that Billy Crystal played for Widespread...........Love ya JoJo
Long live baseball! :)
JB is JB n that's that. leave it alone n be thankful for it don't make it a point of subject
Poor Todd, miss him

Wizard in da corner got a crush on....JB
I have a man crush on JB
Don't flubb yo 🎵🎶😅
Great stuff! Go listen to hatfield from Raleigh this year! Best JB rap ever. Superman, Spider-Man garbage man and shit!
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
wsp is hitting major sweet spots these days.
We let fruit flies out the window a few cities ago
John looks like russel crowe
i guess if you think Russell Crowe is the sexiest man ever, then yes, JB does look like him.
