judging from this sampling... I'm not sure anything will make the 50% threshold

closest seems to be Tahoe Tweezer...

What is all the more amazing and highly amusing about that is the number of ballots I see here (and would assume appear proportionally in the unreported voting) that do not even list one single jam played after 2004.

For me personally, for Phish jams or baseball players or bands or whatever hall of fame you are voting for, I'd think the first group in there should be the pioneers

If you were starting the baseball hall of fame today, would you vote for a bunch of current greats or would you vote for Babe Ruth, Mickey Mantle, Ted Williams, etc

I would vote for the players (jams) that I love and saw play, not for players that someone told me were great. I guess that means that I would vote for George Brett, Wade Boggs, Kirby Puckett, and Don Mattingly. I don't think that we have to start at the beginning when we talk about Phish.

IMHO, Phish got better and better starting post '93', '94', '95' and so on. There are 3.0 jams that are superior to 1.0 and 2.0 jams so why should those jams be penalized purely because they are more recent. 6-3-11 dwd is a serious gem and quite possibly the best dwd of any era, but yet some say it goes nowhere?

I am just not convinced that the best Phish has to offer in jamming happened early on in its history. There may not be any Babe Ruth, Ted Williams, or Ty Cobb. That's not to say there isn't an Hank Aaron, Jackie Robinson, Pete Rose or Roberto Clemente.
