“Seasoned Jam”: Debbie Campbell, Patsy Kislek, Vicky Germroth, Susan Gatling, Lori Lineweaver, Becky Challam ((in-coming and out-going officers) and Wally Holthaus. SEVEN in attendance

January 19, 2019

 (weather was very “iffy,” with forecast somewhere between rain and wintry mix, heavy fog on Afton Mtn.)
“Seasoned jam” attendance: Scott Berg, Shannon Tate, Carol Ralston, Debbie Campbell, Tom Scanlan, Jan Scanlan, Lori Lineweaver, Patsy Kislek, Nancy Tracy – NINE  in attendance. New (or relatively new) tunes included: Barlow Knife, Chinese Breakdown, John Sintson’s #2, Ragtime Annie, Squirrel Heads and Gravy, and Sugar Hill, and maybe a couple more.
(comments I heard – “played tunes we had never played before,” “was fun”, informal,” “everyone had a chance to begin a tune”  “when someone didn’t know how to bring in the count, we spent a few minutes working on that.”)

“Learning jam” attendance: Anne (Cooper-Chen) new member, Shirley Webster, Dave Lineweaver, Dinah Ansley – FOUR in attendance.
(Comments I heard – “I feel so vulnerable, glad we can be in here.” “really needed to get back to music,” “my fingers are remembering what to do.”  My observation: new players were able to be comfort with one another, laugh together, and make comments back and forth to each other, forming a sense of camaraderie.  They all learned to play two tunes: Old Molly Hare and Old Joe Clark.  I meant to have this group join the smaller group, but lost track of time.  Will do better about that next time:~)

February 16, 2019 Wow! What a JAM. We played through the “fastest two hours of the month”, today at the Augusta County Library. Thanks to all who attended. We had a guest stop by to join us, Mr Tim Toth who wrote one of our most favorite songs, Fancy Gap Breakdown, as he was on his way home to Ohio. Thanks Tim, for stopping by and joining our JAM. If you want to play some sweet tunes and possibly meet a celebrity, come join us next month on the third Saturday when we play again from 2 pm till 4pm.
