Amsterdam Coffeeshop Directory Forums

Are there any coffeeshops or other places in the Dam that play "Jam Band" (Grateful Dead, Phish, etc.) music? I here mostly more house music or the like are played at coffeeshops, except for places like The Doors and Pink Floyd.

Have never heard any jamband music in any coffeeshops. I think the best you can do is the classic rock at 420. Not the tired old formula Zep/Floyd/Doors/Stones classic rock, but a much better, more eclectic selection with lots of Zappa.

Gray Area might be your best bet, but it's so tiny getting a seat is a problem. Lucky Mothers used to be the the place I listened to a whole Dead show there once, sadly it's now closed. If you want Jam Bands check out Jam in the Dam at Melkweg in March.

Zappa @ 420. Awesome music, awesome surrounds, heavenly!

In a few coffeeshops I've had them put on CDs I've brought, so maybe take some grateful dead with ya & try your luck
