all things jamming

I live in Riverside, and have played bluegrass and traditional country for 35 years. Also sing lead, tenor, baritone, and write originals (see: www.box.net/bluegrassoriginals for some demos I've posted there).

Interested in joining bluegrass & traditional country music band of experienced people.

Thanks!

Reportedly a good time was had by all Saturday Night 11/14/09 at the Old Riders of the Bluestem Prairie Jam/Party.
It was fun to have so many of the Manhattan area jammers (and Ted) join us for the evening. They sure added a lot to the musical fun. We had 13 music players (not all at the same time) but most of which played most of the evening. The snacks were pretty darn good too -- thanks ladies.

I live in Okmulgee, Oklahoma. I am retired and have recently switched from guitar to the dobro. Yes, they're still dobros to me (small d). I don't care for the term "reso". I have a decent solo catalog and can usually play most breaks and fill-ins, and am trying to learn more. My playing sound is similar to Clarence "Hound Dog" Jackson/Tut Taylor style. I've been to a local jam where no one knows when to change chords, which will seriously mess up a picker's concentration. So I am looking for a recurring jamming session within 50 miles. Thanks for listening.

I just came back from another great Rhytm and Roots- Labor Day weekend festival at Ninigret State Park in Charlestown R.I. I purposely buy a camping ticket so I can jam and dance after the festival is officially over. On Friday night, 1A.M. the jam started with Joe Allen(cajun accordian), members of Magnolia (cajun band), other members of other cajun/zydeco bands , and others, like me who love the music and just love to play. I played my bodron (celtic drum) and triangles. Others played fiddle,various drums, bass guitar, rubboard, guitar, mandolin, sax,etc.

Hello Folkjammers,

I would appreciate locations of jam sites in southern Pennsylvania and West Virginia from September 9 to September 21. We are taking a car camping trip and hoping to hear some old music.

Hey All,

I kinda stumbled acoss this site, when typing in "bluegrass" in my browser. I'm currently involved with an internet collab group, so maybe I qualify for jam muso ? My intent was to post up a press release for our latest single, but it's kind of off topic. Anyways, my name is Geoff Wood fron Sydney, and I'll just say hello, and if anyones into a country/rock blues/shuffle number with harp/mandolin jam style, please drop by, have a listen and say gidday.

Press release and links are here.... http://www.prweb.com/releases/2009/06/prweb2587164.htm

cheers, Geoff from KAW Creation
