@Bridgehouse thank you so much! I have hung around on the edges of the forum for a long time now as you know but have always largely felt a bit like I was on the outside looking in as it were only due to my novice status not due to anything anyone here has said or done. I have always been too scared to post very much because I didn’t feel I had much I could contribute to a bunch of such experienced guys and was afraid of making myself look a bloody idiot ! However, I am really hoping that this will change that as it’s a huge confidence boost and I am just so stupidly excited!
I will start to put some thought into song choices! What kind of styles tend to go down best at the jam’s?
Thank you so much one and all for all your support, help and encouragement!
Don't feel you have to choose to fit in - choose what you like. We will work around it. Chances are a bunch of people will jump on it and think it's a good choice.
Variety is the spice of life.
I'm also a jam virgin so happy to cower in the corner with you!!!
But in all seriousness - playing live with people is the absolute best way to have fun and learn. More than happy to have a natter at any time - but the emphasis is on having a great time with fellow musicians and the lightbulb moment that goes off when you pause for breath mid song and take it all in and realise something along the lines of 'holy cow we're playing pink Floyd/Hendrix/right said fred etc' is just epic
Can my hubby come with me? Not in any kind of playing or singing capacity, just as driver/roadie/ sparky/dogsbody? Or would he have to be a paid up attendee??
you definately would not want to hear him sing, he is the true meaning of the phrase ‘tone deaf’. Lol
sorry for silly questions!
Other halves playing and or contributing etc should pay at the “other rate” unless they want a studio session slot a la @Route66 - but she’s a member now so pays in her own right
so I wasn’t planning on signing up for next years one, as I don’t know what the future holds. But I’ve come to the conclusion f*** it, sign up and see how I feel in 8 months time when hopefully the prognosis is better.
so so count me in, and it will give me a little thing to aim and practice for.
i’ll paypal When I get home this afternoon

I will be there as well as @drumswithpoopot and @bill_the_bass who you all met last time.
as it’s the covers set it may be a benefit to see how it’s not always necessary to play a song exactly note for note, and it’s more about just the playing and groove... not only that, seeing as @bill_the_bass is standing in for our regular bass player, it’s not always necessary to learn the song at all and it is ok to intact play something compleatly different
if you fancy it, Dm me and I’ll give you the details...
I'd have loved to have come to Woking but I haven't found a way to tell the Mrs that I wont be attending our two daughters 1st and 7th birthday party because I'm going to an internet guitar forum jam session.
Any suggestions welcome.....
