“Dream as if you will live forever; Live as if you will die today.” J. Dean
READ THIS: It’s a Jam so it’s a song consensus among the players on stage at the time. It’s a Jam, not a band or personal showcase(See Open Mic below). We’re not asking you to be a ”pro” but, please, this is not “American Idol”. Learn your instrument then come learn to jam. We don’t mind helping someone who is learning how to jam with others but who will take direction (tune it up–know the key—turn it down–listen to the band, etc) . Don’t blow the audience out the doors. Volume doesn’t make it better, only louder. Do not hop up onstage without talking to me first.
PLEASE READ: SIGN UP SHEET NEAR THE DOOR. First signed up, first served. Find me, Breck, or a house band member, when you come in. If you show up past 10:30 you may or may not play depending on how many have signed up ahead of you. Bring what you need to play(a guitar and an amp?). Leave your amp in the vehicle if you want but be prepared to bring it in if needed. Amps may be shared by the graciousness of others but guitars are as personal as a toothbrush. The house band will open the jam up with a few songs.
IN HOUSE EQUIPMENT: Drums, PA w/speakers, mics, bass amp & guitar, CASIO PX-400R DIGITAL PIANO w/ 88 Full Size Keys.
HOUSE BAND this Monday: Jeff Grant on guitar/vocals, Jack Funn on bass, Dick Ross on drums.
SINGER-SONGWRITERS/DUO’S/BANDS:If you want your own stage time alone then Tuesday night is OPEN MIC with Mike Welch and Ross Stone–now the Open Mic hosts–and with their technical expertise they will make you sound good. Come check it out. 8:30pm.
Sam’s: 282-0083. 2115 Allred Dr. 78748(In the woods across from HEB center @ Manchaca & Slaughter. South @light @McDonalds on Slaughter. First left (fire station on left). “Up around the bend”;club on right.) Go slow–watch for deer.NO COVER. Smoking permitted. No cigarette machine in club. Beer/wine/soft drinks/set-ups available.

Every Friday. 8:35-11:57 Open Jam–open genre(except rap/metal/grunge). Usually a lot of classic rock and blues are played but you never know. Depends on who with what instrument walks in the door. And if you know him–it’s Eddy’s birthday–81 years young. Come see the Leg Hound Ladies Man himself (Eddy) burning up the dance floor!

She is going on a church mission to benefit some of the lower economic areas of Maui. Pulled pork/bean plates and other culinary delights will be sold. $1 raffle tickets for nice and wacky things will be sold. Come out and get lei’d. Wear your grass skirt or other Hawaiian theme outfit. Music will be a coalition of great players from around Austin. A horn section & harmonica players will be an awesome addition. One band is called Kindred’s Kombo. Mike Kindred on piano and organ, Dale Clowers on guitar, Kenny Coffman on bass, and Dick Ross on drums. This is going to be killer! Check this out!!! http://www.loudhousemusic.com/mikekindredhandstand.htm
They will be playing in-between two sets that Nykky Dante & other great players have put together. It’s going to be a real fun night!!!! Come early, hang late.
