Re: [Harp-L] Why Blues Jams are Important

[Elizabeth Hess <TrackHarpL@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hear, hear.

My local jam folded when the establishment where we used to meet  
closed its doors.  It used to the the high point of my week.  I didn't  
realize  *how much*  it was the high point of my week until I lost  
it.  I inquired at a likely alternate place and emailed the former  
host with contact information, but nothing has come together.  I try  
to find jams wherever I travel.

God bless all blues jam hosts.
