Jersey Jam 27
Jersey Jam 27, Saturday, February 9th, 2008 at my house in central NJ.
10am - lunchtime (typically 3 or 4 hours) with our now legendary pizza finale'.
It's NOT a formal open event in a public venue, it's just me inviting some folks to my home, as a way of making new musical friends. We have a small group of regulars and new folks stopping by from time to time. Most of us play guitar, though other acoustic instruments are welcome. We're usually willing to try all styles of popular music, and while still consider ourselves beginners and want the jam to be beginner friendly, we're happy to have more experienced players sit in and inspire us.
This is an informal, beginners-level, casual get-together, hanging around in the basement making music.
No pressure, and ABSOLUTELY NO "I'm not good enough" excuses.
You just need an instrument and a song in your heart. And a music stand is helpful.
If you're interested, join the 'Jersey Jam' group here on folkjam.org and let me know!

Ugh, I've been having DSL issues since November and I finally had an appointment to get it checked out today. After waiting for 12 straight hours I found out that the Verizon tech wasn't coming. The only day I could reschedule was this Saturday, otherwise it would be another few months.
If he confirms tomorrow I'll have to miss the jam. Sorry everyone, I know the date was moved to accommodate me. I was really looking forward it. If the appointment falls through I will be there Saturday (unless they don't tell me until Saturday night).

So we have at least three folks coming, and Lou may bring a friend. Who else in in for the 9th?
I STRONGLY encourage all to think of some songs you might like to do and bring chord sheet copies if possible!
We tend to play a lot more that way!
If we're going to look stuff up online, someone else will have keyboard duty this time!
Here's a few that we've done in the past that I thought would be fun to do again:
Jambalaya -- Hank Williams
What's Up? -- 4 Non Blondes
El Paso -- Marty Robbins
(I intend to keep trying El Paso until I get the meter of the lyrics right, so be prepared for a long day....)
See you then!
