Dude, they were a Dead cover band. That's the point I am making. They melded into a slightly different but same thing...

The Hipsters were the wave of wannabes that were also responsible for bad music and unwarranted pretentiousness.

I think it would be interesting to find the point in time when Townies shifted to hipsters.

I don't know that many bands start out playing 100% original stuff from the get go. Almost everyone starts with a lot of covers to get their foot in the door. But they evolved pretty fast and developed their own sound pretty quickly. I guess I just don't hear much Dead when I listen to them. I definitely see where the improvisation (even though Panic doesn't improvise near as much as I like) lead people to keep comparing them to the Dead long after they'd ditched that sound.
