    There used to be a jam every Tuesday night, but now the venue closed, so we will have to find a new place to play. Who knows if things will pick up again when things are safe. We usually get 5-11 people every week. Right now, I just invite a couple people to jam (with proper physical distancing) in my front yard.

    NERD ALERT!

    But very useful!

    I'm surprised how little douce as Ambiance is called. I love that one.

    In Toronto lady be good is always called. And always played easy faster than I like it. :(

    China Boy is common up here too.

    Last jam I went to (it was a short one) we played these tunes (in no particular order):

    • Honeysuckle rose
    • All of me
    • Minor swing
    • I can't give you anything but love, baby
    • Shine
    • On the sunny side of the street
    • I'll see you in my dreams
    • Autumn leaves
    • Dark eyes

    There's one more tune that I am blanking out on the name of, and now that I look at it; the list seems a bit short.

    Geese, I'm in Madison. I'm way long in the tooth now but trying to come back. Years ago, might have been 2012 or 13, can't remember, I went to DiJ and came back geeked to play so I started a jam group. It's still going strong, though I haven't been involved for several years now. If interested, PM me and I can pass along some info. You might be in that group, lol.

    I'll add you to the list when I send out the details for the next front yard jam.

    Um, yep. I'm not a dumba$$, I just have a completely fried memory. Sorry.

    I realize this might have read differently than I intended - sorry to occupy space with this everyone - it's a bit embarrassing to me, and a helluva lot frustrating, that someone could tell me something and I'd have no idea we even talked. It's just all part of a condition I deal with.

    geese, if it wasn't evident, in no way was I directing anything your way. It goes without saying I treasure everyone on this site.

    Paul,


    Don't feel bad. I have a co-worker that joined us in the Fall. Apparently, he had come to talk with our group about 9 months prior to that. People kept telling me that I should remember him since he came back then. I have no recollection of that talk nor of meeting him in general. Even when I saw him, I thought, nope, never met this guy in my life. Guess I did. Slightly embarrassing to me but oh well. No judgement zone here.

    One song that seems popular everywhere around the world is :Made For Wesley. It’s sad for the composer that most people attribute the song to Jimmy when it was his bass player who composed it for his son haha.
