TomFoolery Posted November 25, 2004 Report Share Posted November 25, 2004 Hey Folks,I’m fairly new to this board. I’ve made a couple of posts but haven’t generally had a lot to say. I do enjoy the vibe on this site quite a bit, though – sounds like some really stellar folk. Now I’ve got a question for the Ottawa contingent…I’m assuming that a lot of you play music as well as appreciate it. I’ve been trying to assemble a few people to get a regular jam going. I think it’ll be pretty cool if it comes together and who knows where it could go. The line up would roughly be: drums, (hand) percussion, bass, guitar, keys, flute/clarinet, free-form (female) vocals, and maybe some trumpet (the keys player is multi talented). What I have in mind is some goa/funk/acid-jazz influenced jamming.I’ve got most of the people lined up but there are a couple of problem points. The flute/clarinet player lives out of town so jam frequency may be limited. The guitar player may be flaking out. The drummer has no regular kit (I’ve got a loaner lined up in the mean time) and we could use another percussionist. Not much can be done about the distance for the flute/clarinet player, so I think we’ll just let that fly unless it really becomes a problem. Do any of you guys play, or know guitar players or drummers who may be interested in this sort of project?The only caveat is that this is a bit of an experiment. I’ve only really jammed with two of the people involved so it may go somewhere – it may not…If you're interested or have any ideas I'd like to hear them. If anyone wants a serious chat about the details, pm me through this site.Even if nothing comes of it, thanks for reading Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bradm Posted November 25, 2004 Report Share Posted November 25, 2004 I play guitar, and would love to be part of something like this. Through most of 2003, I spent Tuesday nights at Cafe Dekcuf, taking part in their "Jammer Tuesdaze" open jams, and loved it. As a player, I think I lean towards trancy/jammy/funky/patterned stuff. I have gear, but no transport, though I do have an empty basement which can serve as a jam space. Aloha, Brad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
