Jazz/Blues Jam

Jazz head

I'm a guitarist with 15 yrs experience. I also teach guitar and I'm currently producing my debut record. I've lately begun to take jazz lessons. I can improvise to jazz standards, while my teacher comps. However, the lessons are only 30mins. Cant afford to pay for the full hour. I want go find people to play jazz or blues with. If you are interested to jam (nothing serious) just meet up and work through some standards, well then give me a shout. Located in Dublin 7

I started out playing Take the a train - and I'll see in my dreams. I'm transcribing solos from Miles Davis - kind of blues at the moment. I'd like to start playing more with other musicians as I can really feel myself improving when I play through changes with my teacher. But the lessons aren't long enough. I really like Django's version of I'll see you in my dreams but haven't got around to transcribing it yet.

Thanks for replies.
Great to have a bass player onboard. Will need another guitarist and drums would be good also. Dont know if Gitane is still on for jam session?
