Do it. You will have a great time. I also prefer their older style of jamming but still don't miss a chance to see them when they come around.
I've seen them twice. Last time I saw them I was pissed the whole show. The music was okay. Their old stuff is great. Their new stuff sucks major balls.
Plus the scene is disgusting. Young kids strung out on all the wrong drugs. Don't respect anyone except themselves and their buddy who is rolling so hard they are practically not human anymore.
Just remember how much we all hate it when people judge Phish solely on their fans, don't get caught in the same trap with other bands.
That being said, next to Phish and Furthur, Lotus is probably my favorite touring band right now. Yes they have an electric side but most die-hard Lotus fans aren't fond of that direction. Recently they have drifting back into their older style of jamming, i.e. funkier, more prog-rock based, older tunes, and what not. 2010-2011 saw them going in a questionable electronic direction and in 2012 they have gradually moved away from that shit. I recommend anyone with the opportunity to go see them, they are tight as ever and really get the feet moving.
