If "waxbanks" thinks last night's main sets were so great, why wouldn't he enlighten us on their merits?

I think pointing out that a jam does not leave the structure of the tune actually is descriptive and helpful in a review of the show.
ok, tired as i am, i'll bite: how is it helpful? are you less likely to listen to the show, or parts of the show, based on the percentage of 'type i' and 'type ii' jams? aren't you going to spin the entire show once, regardless? are you interested in the music (separate from enjoying it, i guess) at a level below 'typical/atypical'?

this isn't about pzerbo, either; same goes for every other writer around here, including me. what's helpful about knowing in advance whether a given tune is 'in the box' or 'out of the box'?
