[Harp-L] Re: [HarpTalk] Playing at Jam Sessions

["Derwood Blues" <Derwood.Blues@xxxxxxxxx>]

Here was the best quotes so far:

"Otherwise, it will sound like a blues jam..."  "Rick Davis" <
bluesharpamps@xxxxxxxxx>

and the second:

"Jam Sessions? - Forget it. Unless a group of seasoned players hit the
stage, it's every man for himself. YEEHAAW"  IcemanLE@xxxxxxx

Is not the point of a Jam session to Jam, Try something, See if it works,
Impress you friends, Impress that girl at the bar, Pretend you are good,
play your instrument ...

Now sitting in or playing to back someone up at an open mic is different. If
you are good enough to be self-righteous about players at a jam get yourself
a band and don't go to jams.
