From 5strings3picks1banjo on 2/12/2020 5:35:54 PM

Where is our New Zealand community and where is everybody hanging out? This group is very quite.

Is there another site I should be visiting to find people to jam with and events that are coming up.

This is very worrying that I am coming home and cannot find any help and nobody here can tell me anything about our New Zealand banjo community. Will I be picking my banjo alone on the front porch and nobody playing lead on guitar?

Kind regards

	5strings3picks1banjo says: 2/13/2020 2:09:15 AM Thanks Wayne I will note that link. It's a long way to drive for jam though haha. You seem to be our only New Zealander posting here. I don't know how i'm going to survive in Rotoma just outside of Rotorua. I guess I have a lot of work to do to create a Bluegrass folk music group. Maybe I will jam in town and hand out flyers. I can lead with guitar until I find a guitar player
	KiwiClaw says: 2/13/2020 11:27:09 AM Hi. We have a Facebook group dedicated to old time music in NZ. I'm pretty sure the membership is not exclusively old time...there will likely be a few bluegrass pickers in the wings. Feel free to join us and post a jam enquiry. The group is called old time music in New Zealand. Cheers. Liam
