The Oscars, the Emmys, the Grammys...the Jammys? The Jammy Awards celebrate bands who riff, skiff, and improvise in the tradition of the Grateful Dead. The climax of the ceremony involves a crowded multi-stage jam. Unlike most other award ceremonies, the focus is not on ball gowns and borrowed jewelry. Also, columnist John Podhoretz, the election in Spain, and the feud over Linux.
