Dos Gringos Jam Session/Workshop
Starting next week, March 5th, 2007, we'll be hosting a jam session at Dos Gringos, in Carbondale, from 6:00 until 8:30. The session will, hopefully be a bi-weekly event. At 6:00 the "house rhythm section" (Tim Fox, pn.; Mark Gray, bs; and Bob Levey, dr.) will play a short set. At 6:30, high school students will be invited to join the session for a set. After the students (7:15?), adults will be invited to join the session until 8:30, or so.
Here's a short list of tunes we may choose from (the following files are PDFs. Sorry, you'll have to supply the transposition):
Bernie's Tune - Theolonius Monk
CTA Jimmy Heath
All Blues - Miles Davis
The Jody Grind - Horace Silver
Just Friends - Klenner and Lewis
What Is This Thing Called Love - Cole Porter
Whisper Not - Benny Golson
We may be able to keep our "workshop atmosphere" at this venue... we'll see. Hope to see you all there!
