The purpose of the sessions is to allow novice folk musicians to practice at a nice slow pace (as slow as necessary). Learning on your own at home is good but sooner or later you'll want to step out and play with other musicians. The Old School Session is a halfway house between home and the pub sessions. You can practice the art of playing tunes in a session environment, have some fun, and hopefully learn a few things along the way.

There's no audience, just your fellow musicians. Even though there are a lot of tunes on the list, you only need to learn one to start with. Just sit out the tunes you don't know and listen. Your personal tune list will soon grow, and in time you'll be playing along with more tunes and putting sets together.
