old time music jam

patrick I'd be interested in playing too, though I probably can't commit to doing so every week. I have guitars, a mandolin and a banjo that I could bring.

old time music jam

Me too. I play fiddle and am always interested in getting together to jam. I know lots of tunes, but have difficulty coming up with them without prompting. I'm probably about intermediate.
So count me in!

old time music jam

Hello SusanKay,

Thanks for responding about the old time jam. You are the first person to respond to the note. I don't have a time, place or frequency to do this thing. I thought once enough of us showed interest we could decide amongst ourselves. I was thinking it would be great to be able to use the Montague Grange. I don't know if it would be free or not at this point but I plan on checking into that part. That's great that you can round up a fiddle or two. I'll stay in touch after giving more people time to respond and check on Grange availability.

Wes Green

old time music jam

VERY interested. I play OT guitar (intermediate level on straight-ahead tunes). I could possibly stir up a fiddler or two. Do you have an evening in mind already? How often? - Susan, Turners Falls

old time music jam

Looking to start an old time music (not bluegrasss) jam. Hopefully there will be intermediate players like me that are interested along with skilled players. I was thinking of a regular get together if possible at the Montague Grange. I am working on my clawhammer skills any other banjos,fiddles,guitars,bases,etc. out there in need of jam time?

Cindy Green, family dance caller

mik Dear Family Dance Communities:

Cindy Green is seriously ill. As of Friday she was moved from the Cooley Dickinson ICU to Kindred Hospital Parkview, 1400 State Street, Springfield, MA 01109. She is in Room 512.

This is a long-term acute care and rehabilitation hospital. She is too weak to talk on the phone, but cards are welcome.

An outpouring of cards could help as well as boosting both Cindy's and Grace's morale. Also if anyone has anything that is funny and could help Grace distract herself periodically that would be helpful.

Thank you for holding these two dear women in your prayers.

Anne Flaherty (mother of Miette and Ivy)
