 Change in the lineup

Ahh–the second presentation of the Minglewood Shuffle is this Thursday (Jan 15) at the Mnglewood Tavern (25 Rogers St, Gloucester MA). You get seven talented acts playing 20 minutes each–it’s a Fishtown variety show–starting at 7:00. We’ve got Deb Hardy, Jake Pardee, Ric St Germaine, Sam Bayer, Allen Estes, Molly Pinto Madigan, and me–T Max. I’m hosting the proceedings too–so come on down and get a taste of Gloucester’s 2015 crazy winter magic.

Bluegrass Jam Sunday

Acoustic Jam Sessions Invitation
Slow Jam Tuesdays 7:30 – 9:30 pm  $15
Barn Jam (style wide open)  1st & 3rd Sunday  2 – 5  Free
Bluegrass Jam  2nd & 4th Sunday 2 – 5  Free
Bluegrass Jam! …. Do you love that high lonesome sound, that infectious toe tapping rhythm? Bluegrass Pickers you know who you are, so grab your instrument and come down to Dliamond Cove Music this Sunday.

The session will run 2-5 and is limited to 12 musicians’ seats. I’ve got room to have two jam sessions going at once which should help a lot! When you get more than 6 or 7 musicians jamming, it is usually neither satisfying for the musicians nor for any listeners. It just requires too much restraint. With two jams going at once, I can encourage enthusiasts of any ability to attend, and feel confident they should be able to get in on a session where they will feel comfortable. If you are having problems or have any suggestions, please let me know.

With a 12-seat limit, they’re sure to be snatched up quickly, so register today! If you reserve a seat in advance I will make sure you have a seat when you arrive. Musicians do come and go, so even if all seats have been reserved, come anyway and we will probably have room for you at some point.

RESERVE YOUR SEAT by emailing tom@diamondcovemusic.com
Listeners – please find a spot in the front half of the main room.
Customers – I’m open throughout the jam, but checking out new istruments is probably best done before and after the jam.
Musicians – I can’t offer loaner instruments for the jams. Cases must go into the rack or stacked just through door to 2nd room. Click to see proper etiquette.

It is unfortunate to be misinformed and I hope that if one finds an error in this posting, please bring it to my attention so it can be fixed as soon as possible.

Sincerely,

Joanne

Dear Friends,

This Thursday night, 1/15, from 7-10PM, at Katrina’s  I will be playing once again with the “man of endless songs” the multi talented

Inge Berge! I fell in love with the nylon string guitar he brought with him last week, hopefully he’ll bring it again!

It’s these moments that get me through the winter months…plus my new X-mas boots! Bringing some new songs

with me and hopefully I can play them for you!

As always I really do look forward to seeing you,

~
