I noticed there seem to be a couple of people who live around the Philadelphia area here. Does anyone actually live in the city itself? I'm a student living in the city and I would love to talk to some people who live in the city about meeting up. I don't have a car here, so the only way I can get around is by foot or public transportation. I know about the Mermaid Inn jam sessions, but it would be difficult to get out there without a car, of course. Message me if your interested!! Now I cross my fingers and wait...

If you have way of transportation, Ameranouche is playing in NYC this Friday, Feb 19th... at Drom - 85 Avenue A, New York, NY... show will start around 9 pm.
You might look up Barry Warren for Philly area... he lives there and is quite the player and deep in the gj circuit.
Best,

I would love to see more GJ at Chris' Jazz Cafe on Sansom street. I saw Dario Pinelli there but sadly it was on a Monday at 5:30 with perhaps eight people in the crowd including me and my friend... :roll: It's a great venue with lots of awesome jazz but rarely any GJ. A bonafide GJ quintet on a Friday night in that place would blow people's minds and do a lot for the perception of GJ around here.
Oh and I forgot to mention I'll probably be checking out Ameranouche at the PSALM, which certainly seems like an interesting venue. http://www.psalmsalon.com/#more
