Monthly Acoustic Jam

Hey Everyone, The next jam (May 15, 2010) coincides with the Stringband Rendezvous at Clinton Lake. Therefore, after great deliberation between Greg and myself (those who usually host the event), we decided that pretty much all the regulars will be at the Lake rather than in town. So if you want to jam this month, you are cordially invited to attend the Stringband Rendezvous (www.stringbandrendezvous.com) on the 15th. There is a nominal attendance fee, but it goes to a good cause (i.e., paying for the campground use, etc.) Please visit the website for details... bands will be playing again this year including many of those you all belong to... so see you there. Please call if you have questions!

Roland (816) 868-3724

Common Jam rules condensed:
1. Announce the key and chords being used.
2. Allow room for breaks for everyone around the circle who wants one (that is opportunity to pick out the verse or chorus) and let folks know what the break is (verse or chorus if there is a difference).
3. When someone is doing the break/taking lead, please, please strum softly so we can all hear what that person is doing.
4. Avoid noodling between tunes when the next person is trying to get their song in their head.
5. Have fun and laugh a lot.
