    Hi,
    I play guitar and harmonica and I am looking for like minded acoustic musicians who would like to meet up every couple of weeks or so for a good auld jam.Nothing too serious, just a relaxed session where anyone can play a song and everyone joins in. I'm thinking guitar, fiddle, banjo, mandolin players, anything really! and the more the merrier!
    I love playing all sorts of genres from the blues to a bit of folk, trad etc.I have a varied taste in music from Blind Boy Fuller, Neil Young, Dylan, Clapton to Crowded House. I wouldn't rule anything out.
    I know a place to jam for a reasonable price if enough people are interested.

    I'm in Tyrrelstown myself.Sounds good but I don't even own an electric guitar never mind play one(properly that is). Cheers but it's an acoustic jam that I'm really after.

    Any night would suit me, I work shifts so I can make it every 2 out of 3 weeks.

    The session in Clonee sounds good.Is it only ballads that they play?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7 Bass and Vocals
