SUMMARY:The Jam Down By Riverside (potluck)
DESCRIPTION:Tickets & Donations\n\n\n\n\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				We ask that participants contribute to the costs of the event by making a donation to Down By Riverside\, Inc. \n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				PLEASE NOTE: This JAM  is from 3 – 6 PM. This is 1 hour early to avoid conflict with the Superbowl. Normally the jam will run from 4 – 7 PM on the Second Sunday of the Month \nThe Jam Down By Riverside is a direct descendent of the now defunct Blues Jam at the Porch Sounthern Fare & Juke Joint\, which was a descendant of the Johnny D’s blues jam. The jam is for building community and building skills. We welcome people of all ages\, abilities\, styles and instruments to join in the jamming. We do not have a strict Blues Only jam rule\, but probably 85% of the repertoire is blues or blues-derived music. Please come to play or listen. \nWe’re putting out a special call to teachers and their students to join us and we’re specificly trying to facilitate connections between people with more experience and folks with less experience. \nWhat to expect:The Jam is first come – first served\, meaning you get into the pool to play when you arrive and sign up. There will be 3-4 different groups per hour depending on attendance. More people = shorter sets and more sets\, so more people are able to play. The host will put different bands together based on the abilities and instrumentation available from the attendees. Each group will have a bandleader (often the lead vocalist) who will call songs\, solos\, starts\, breaks and endings. \nThis is a potluck event bring food to share or bring you own eats. We will have beverages for sale for your convenience. \nDo bring your own instrument\, cable\, sticks\, microphone\, and small harp amps.Do not bring your own guitar amp and expect to play through it unless you have talked to a host in advance. \nVolunteers will provide the following backline for players: drumkit\, bass rig\, 2 guitar amps\, 2 direct boxes\, microphones\, monitors\, PA system. We are taking donations of various equipment for backline. Please inquire about a donation. In particular we are looking for a small drumset and <15w guitar amps or modeling pedals. \nWe will ask for donations to offset the cost of the event and to show support for our organization. \n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n			\nShare this:\n				Share on Facebook (Opens in new window)\n				Facebook\n			\n				Share on Bluesky (Opens in new window)\n				Bluesky\n			\n				Email a link to a friend (Opens in new window)\n				Email
