We really need a northern, VA old time jam.

I go to a few Bluegrass Jams, locally. We've even started a BullRun Bluegrass Association that has monthly jams nearby. But, no old time.

I've been driving up to Brunswick, MD for Old time jams, but that's too far.

I know we all talked about this a little a few years back, but let's try again.

I'm thinking we could try again for Signal Hill Park in Manassas? Maybe 1st and 3rd Saturday, 2:00 to 4:00 pm?

For common tunes to start, we could use the Old Tim Jam site's top twenty?

Any thoughts?

Mary Cliff on WAMU also announces a lot of local interest music events. Online, dcbu.org has free jam listing and classifieds, mostly bluegrass oriented but they get seen by a lot of old-time pickers too. CABOMA (caboma.org) hosts jams in Northern Virginia too, not sure what the balance of bluegrass to old-time is at theirs but they could help you get in touch with more folks.

(and it takes me an hour or more to get there from Manassas). If I get any interest, I'll post something on the DCBU calender. thanks.
