Bluegrass Tuesdays jams continue at The Smoot Standard and the patio at Naco Taco in Central Square in Cambridge, but we are shifting the start times forward by a half-hour. Bluegrass Tuesdays regularly scheduled jams will now be meeting on the following schedule:
6:15 pm – Beg-to-Int Bluegrass Jam (email tony…@gmail.com to join)
7:30 pm – Kelley’s Intermediate Bluegrass Jam
7:45 pm – Ed’s Slow-to-Medium Instrumental Jam
8:00 pm – Wayne’s Intermediate-to-Advanced Bluegrass Jam
Thanks to Chris Parsons (chef/owner of Lily RIP’s), our jams now meet every Tuesday at these two restaurants (rain or shine). Naco Taco is owned by the same folks as Smoots and is another sister restaurant of Lily P’s. The Smoot Standard is located at 313 Mass. Ave. in Cambridge, MA 02139, while Naco Taco is at 297 Mass. Ave. Smoot’s kitchen will be open until 9 pm, and drinks will be available late from JamBassador Jack.
Food and drinks are available at both locations, but I cannot stress this highly enough: DO NOT carry alcohol between the two restaurants. You can purchase alcoholic drinks at either location, but you must finish your drinks there – you CANNOT carry them down the sidewalk between the restaurants. I’m asking everyone to please remind each other of this very important rule – thanks!
As a reminder, we are still looking for the next home for Bluegrass Tuesdays, and we need your help! Please visit www.BluegrassTuesdays.com for a complete description of the kinds of places we’re looking for. Suggestions have been coming in, but we still need more, thanks!
