That’s not to say the traditional psychedelic rock genre went unrepresented. Denver band Dorian Vibe stretched out a long Phish-style set. A band of highly educated musicians, they played as jam band purists, and could have been the house band at Quixote’s, whose collection of Grateful Dead concert posters is surely unmatched. The keyboards, ample guitar solos and vocal harmonizing harkened The Dead. This band was seasoned, with the momentum to jam all night, and would have been great at Summer Camp, though one wonders if they’d be indistinguishable in a sea of similar Phish/Dead styled acts. - Jeremy Maxwell, Examiner.com
