Bring your instrument and your Celtic tunes and let's see what happens.
The Kansas City Irish Center is located inside Union Station. Parking is free for musicians in the parking garage just west of the station thanks to the Irish Museum.
The Irish Center is on the lower level of the station just at the bottom of the escalators. We play mainly 'pure drop' Irish traditional tunes every third Sunday of the month. Occasionally we play for the Driscoll Irish Dancers - check the Irish Center website for dates: http://www.irishmuseum.org/
It is a great space and a great organization.
Location
This can be a power session with up to 15 musicians sometimes. Very common to see 6-10. We play mainly 'pure drop' traditional irish tunes. ***The craic is mighty***
The Gaf has good food, drinks and a very supportive landlord.
There is always a good crowd of punters, including a bevy of lovely ladies who come for the tunes, drinks, dancing and who generally like to get out of line.
Location
The Heart of America Old Time and Bluegrass (HABOT) association runs a monthly jam at 6pm October through April in Kansas City's Northland. See their web site for contact information and directions.
This jam is a huge affair with room after room of players playing away at bluegrass, country, old time, fiddle tunes and pretty much anything acoustic instruments can muster. It at the atmosphere of a picking festival. There are groups playing at just about every skill level, and a bluegrass show in a main performance space for those who don't bring an instrument.
