PART 3 ~ WORKSHOP: "Yesterdays"
If time allows, we will run a workshop after the regular jazz jam, for those that are interested. Please help put tables and chairs back and clean up. We'll let the Pros and Jammers that have no interest in the workshop leave (those that do - stay). Then we will spend time working "Yesterdays" as a workshop tune. Please come prepared to play on it, we will start at slow tempos, bring questions or an objective you want to get out of the workshop or e-mail me, and we'll work on it for a bit. No expectations on level of play, just come and try it if you like.
