 Don’t forget “The Eagle Flies On Friday” Jam-Every Friday-Open Genre

Hey Breck,
My pleasure, man, and thank you. In fact, I had posted on Facebook earlier this morning that I always enjoy the jam, the cheap beer and, most importantly, the great people at Sam’s. The lack of pretentiousness, the whole vibe of the place… ya’ll got something really special there. I love to hear the players; always learn a new riff or two. I’ll certainly be there when I can.
Merry Christmas, Breck.
