I think one of the hardest things about starting out in banjo, or any instrument, is finding other people to play with. That being said, It would be nice if we could post some jams in the general area. I know that would help some people out.

Thanks for joining!

	bahruse says: 7/27/2013 4:38:19 AM Mt. Ida AR has a show every Saturday night during the summer that starts at 7pm on the courthouse square. Sometimes they jam before the show, but there is a local jam from 5 to 8 (bluegrass, gospel, country and some bar songs) int the corner grocery store in Shirley Arkansas about 13 miles away. Buy some of Miss Lauri's pie or chicken fries if you want to show some appreciation for her hosting. There is a little grill there.
