Everyone--

The next DC Bluegrass Union VFW Bluegrass "Vocal Workshop" Jam will be Monday, October 29, from 7:00-10:00 PM, at:

        Veterans of Foreign Wars Post 350
        6420 Orchard Ave., Takoma Park, MD

The VFW Post is at the corner of Orchard Ave. and 4th Ave., just a few blocks from the intersection of New Hampshire Ave. and Eastern Ave.

Whenever a month contains a fifth Monday, which happens about four times a year, there will be a special "Vocal Workshop" Jam.  These jams are exactly like regular jams except in two respects:

1.  No instrumentals will be played (only vocal tunes).
2.  Songs chosen must have three-part harmony on the chorus, and participants may not sing along freely; instead, before the song, we will choose one person each to sing lead, tenor, and baritone.

Be sure to bring your instrument as usual, and feel free to attend even if you don't plan to sing, as songs will contain instrumental solo breaks as usual.

Those who find these rules too restrictive are of course free not to attend these special sessions.

As always, the jams are free.  If you know anyone who might like to come, please pass this message along to them.  Thanx!
