Jake Jolly: How Phish and The Grateful Dead Found Their Way Into Fox Sports NFL Games
Ever catch a Phish or Grateful Dead song sneaking into the bumper music during an NFL or college football game on Fox Sports? That's the TV magic of Jake Jolly-Los Angeles-based Fox Sports broadcast producer and jam band aficionado. Full name Jake Jolivette, he’s the mastermind behind blending Widespread Panic, The Disco Biscuits, Moe, and other jam band staples into Fox Sport's music packages, bridging the gap between live sports and the jam scene in a way live music fans can't help but notice.
I've bumped into Jake at plenty of shows around LA-clearly, we’re on the same wavelength musically. So, I invited him on the first-ever studio-recorded episode of @BroBibleOfficial 's Mostly Occasionally Show. We dig into his journey with Phish and the Dead, his college days in Ohio, and how he’s brought jam band energy to the sports world. Plus, we chat about viral moments, Twitter buzz, and the grapevine reactions from sports fans and bands alike. We had a blast yapping together IRL on a Monday afternoon.

      that perspective would be hard to defend.....although the Dead's music has its roots in blues, folk, rock, jazz, and other older genres, the core essence and structure of much/most of their songs is improvisation, hence "jam".....they never play the song the same way twice, which is their inherent beauty, and why people love them so much, as my friend says, "music for smart people" ;- ) while the GD don't "only jam", the format of their songs; 1. introduce structure 2. play 1 or more verses of structure 3. gravitate away from structure, often to the point of not even being able to see or hear (or remember lol) the original structure 4. introduce/tease the return to original structure 5. return to original structure before concluding song It is between #3-#5-#6 above that "jamming" (improvisation") occurs regularly.....

    Saw that Primus "Return To Kings" show, and JRAD in the past couple of years. I had seen Primus a few time, and Primus SUCKS! by the way, but they had the darkest light show I ever saw. No follow spots, everything was from behind the band. Weird. JRAD was lots of fun, but they came around here about a month ago and I gave it a miss, I had my reasons, but none were that good. Get 'em next time. Very interesting interview, heard a little "Truckin' " on a Fox NFL game this past weekend.

    You say the Reds can't afford to sign Elly? How can a billionaire owner of a team not be able to afford a decent contract? The contracts are ridiculous, and a guy who strikes out at that high a rate (218 is 30 more than Dale Murphy ever managed in a season) cannot be commanding several hundreds of millions unless he's Aaron Judge as a rookie also mashing 52 HRs.

    The Phish show that you're talking about with the fire alarm was 6.21.94. I remember this because the next day, 6.22.94 is probably my favorite show to listen to. Also, fun fact, but the fire alarm went off during Horse and, to my knowledge, is the only time that Horse -> Silent was ever broken apart? Maybe I'm wrong there.
