Who: You & Us!! 😊
Hello! We want to play music with YOU!
If you have a basic musical ability (play an instrument, know your chords), We welcome you to bring your instrument; guitar, bass, drums, keyboard, ukelele, voice, and more – for a night of playing songs together. We’ll finish out the night with a jam.
Point of the event is to have fun and make music together. There is little expectation beyond that.
Format of the event: we’ll play relatively easy songs which are 3-5 chords. We’ll have a list to choose from for this event, and we’ll cast them on a screen / or have on poster-boards, so everyone can see the chords and lyrics. We’ll draw numbers from a hat @ 7pm and that will be the order of those wanting to lead a song. If you just want to play, then just play!
Genres include but not limited to Rock, Pop, Folk, Blues. Typically, we’ll be mostly in 4/4 time to keep things simple. I’ll start off the 1st song to get us warmed up, then we’ll take turns leading a song (optional if you desire to).
Note: we’ll play mostly “clean” in terms of sound, but some basic pedals / effects are permitted such as Wah, Compressor, Reverb, Delay, etc. Ear plugs will be available.
Also Note: respectfulness of everyone’s ability level is expected, kindness is appreciated. This is for fun, and there is no expectation that the songs will sound like the original nor do we really desire for it to.
Keep your alcohol and drugs and pets at home.
We’ll take a break about halfway through to socialize and munch on snacks.
If you have any questions, you can reach me by email: MrDaveStewart@gmail.com
Hope to see you there!
