Taper’s Choice: One Second Doner Wrap

#taperschoice

Fresh live Taper’s Choice to get ready for their first east coast tour this fall. #TapersChoice

Bleeker may be the greatest jamband songwriter we have. May not have the easy listening vocal styling of Rock Mitochondria, but show me a better modern day jamband lyricist.

And yes, this includes lyrics like “Did we pass the Dave test”

Can anyone pick me up a copy at Choice Fest in LA? Extremely excited about this release. Curious if it will be new studio recordings or a compilation of what is already on bandcamp, but either way, will be sick.

Taper’s Choice is a band you can depend on. #taperschoice

Ever since @Neddyo posted about how good #TapersChoice was at Peachfest I've been jonesing for an aud and there's still nothing on archive.org 😔

lol, well played Tapers Choice #taperschoice #Goose

Haven’t done a consecutive run through before, and it’s been a long time since I revisited Vol. 1 and 2. Can’t wait for the album. #nowplaying #taperschoice

I miss #TapersChoice. Hopefully they announce some dates soon.

Relatedly, I’m craving doner kebab.

@NateFederman That explains it. I think they became a five-piece around 99.

moe.’s an interesting case in that they went through like five different drummers in the 90s and then brought back their second drummer as a percussionist and drums/percussion hasn’t changed ever since.

I think the big unanswered jamband second percussionist question is: when will #TapersChoice follow the lead of many of their jam predecessors …

There may be a few jamband songs that are better than Doner Wrap, but only a few. #TapersChoice #DonerWrap #Jambands

The new Taper's Choice mixtape is excellent! Some really catchy and unique stuff in here https://taperschoice.bandcamp.com/album/choice-tapes-vol-5

Shout out @ghostllama and @Nolasox for the recommendation! #taperschoice

This new Taper’s Choice release is still blowing my mind. If they ever release a full length studio album, I’m convinced it’ll be one of the best jamband studio LPs, ever. #TapersChoice #music #jambands

Is Lilac Palace #TapersChoice’s Dark Star?

The first song on the first track is unlike any #TapersChoice I’ve previously heard. Really digging it.

What is Taper’s Choice best jam vehicle so far?

I’m torn between Doner Wrap & Lilac Palace?

#TapersChoice

We need more Taper’s Choice discourse around here.

What is your favorite TC jam from this year?
#TapersChoice

@ghostllama A tough call, but one I keep going back to is the Big Sur Running from the Rain. #TapersChoice

@maxellxlii90 Yeah agreed. I loved the first three with Harrington deconstructing and messing with live clips, adding some studio stuff in etc. I’ve still yet to see live. My son goes to college in LA so I may just need to coordinate a trip to visit him with a #TapersChoice run

Really hope they go into the studio and lean into that collage style from the first few Choice Tapes. Would also be nice if they came to Chicago at some point, but they seem to be exclusively bi-coastal. #TapersChoice

It’s been a handful of days, and maybe I’ve missed it, but I haven’t seen any #TapersChoice content which just seems … wrong
