At this year’s Domefest in Colorado, Spafford’s live take on “Plush” ignited a fiery back-and-forth across the r/jambands subreddit.
Some fans praised the nod to nostalgia, eager to highlight the band’s previous performance of the track on February 15, 2025, appreciating the fresh yet familiar vibe.
Conversely, others took issue with the rhythmic shift, especially the “untz-untz” beat that recast the classic song’s flow—one user even called it a “criminal” offense to the original.
This divisive rendition only stokes Spafford’s reputation for reimagining fan favorites live, fueling ongoing buzz around their festival sets.
