Most "blues jammers" are middle-aged guys with really nice Strats and good amps and kilobuck pedal boards who sit at home working out every lick on "Cold Shot" or "Crossroads." There is no band for these guys, so they jam.
They also have lives. So a weeknight jam that starts at 10 PM is not going to be well attended.
But there is an alternative for these types. Jam Crib has open jam sessions Sunday through Thursday starting at 7 p.m. and you can play all you want. Not the typical wait around, play 3 songs, then sit back down format.
But you don't have beer and cheap bourbon

www.esession.com/bradjones - hire me for your session from anywhere in the world.
hear there can be a pretty tough crowd out at the a&o.
i know some dudes that go there a bit and theyre pretty rough dudes.
not exactly, i mean yeah there are a few roughians but there are also yuppies and normal beer drinkin a**holes, too. and if you aren't someone causing trouble, people will look out for you. i've found most people are friendly, although everywheres got its wierdos.
actually last night was a first... somebody got their guitar stolen. so they stopped the show and everybody, and i mean EVERYBODY in the bar got involved in trying to find it or who took it.
so yeah, it ain't so bad.
The A&O is on High St. and if you have never been there you should resign your post as a Fort Wayne 'bar goer'...One of the hidden 'destination' bars in this town, but has been there forever and has stood the test of time.
Not a regular place for me, but I know where it is, and have been in there a hand full of times.
Typical situation that just because some people have never been there it is discounted as a contender for Whammy consideration? I also never knew you had to 'buy an ad' in order to be part of the Whammy's...I thought that was an open competition to EVERYTHING in Fort Wayne...please clarify...

If you want to know what I am working on check out these sites:
And running for the Republican ticket is an open competition, but you don't see Ron Paul with a chance of it.
for sure, probably very good for america, but not a chance in hell. its funny though, the people that actually know who ron paul is and are supporting him. its not just people like us, i've met some nascar loving beer drinking a00sholes who love him.... not to offend beer drinkers cause i'm one myself.
