SUMMARY:Bluegrass Tuesdays at Lily P's
DESCRIPTION:Jams and concerts every Tuesday at this Cambridge institution\, going strong for over 25 years! Check the web site to join the mailing list and find out who is playing this week. https://bluegrasstuesdays.com/ \n\n\n\n5:15 pm – My Beginner-to-Intermediate Bluegrass Jam continues to meet nearly every Tuesday\, but you’ll have to email me at tonywatt@gmail.com to be sure. This is a “teacher-directed” jam where we never know what songs we’re going to play\, but we’re limited to no instrumentals and no very fast nor very complex songs. \n\n\n\n6:30 pm – Kelley’s Intermediate Bluegrass Jam meets every week and is suitable for those who have some experience jamming already and can play songs and tunes\, recognize chord changes\, and play well with others. \n\n\n\n6:45 pm – Ed’s Fiddle Tunes at 80 BPM Jam now meets in the hallway behind the kitchen\, right by the stairwell to the garage. This jam focuses on classic bluegrass instrumentals played at very reasonable tempos. \n\n\n\n7:00 pm – Wayne’s Intermediate-to-Advanced Bluegrass Jam typically evolves out of Kelley’s Intermediate Jam and then moves out back unless the weather is nice enough to play outside. \n\n\n\nPlus\, jamming throughout the restaurant until all hours! \n\n\n\nFor more information about any of these jams\, please visithttps://bluegrasstuesdays.com/jams.html and email me at tonywatt@gmail.com if you have any questions.
