    Unhappy

    How about in Glos, near Northleach - or in Kent, near Maidstone?

    Assuming you're after bluegrass jams, there's a monthly session at Kemble Airfield (home of the Didmarton Bluegrass Festival) near Cirencester. First Friday of every month.

    Don't know about Kent, but you might want to look at http://www.ukbluegrass.com - plenty of info that may come in useful.

    Thanks

    The jam takes place in the OGRI clubhouse. Further info at http://www.ukbluegrass.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=224

    I won't be there this week, but I'm sure I will be again in future. Will definitely be at Didmarton anyway!

    The Ogri Clubhouse?! #To much! #I belong to a virtual motorbike club that once was named Ogri, but Paul Sample got all bent out of shape when we contemplated T-shirts with the club's name on it, made us stop.

    Pity about the date, for we'll be arriving just before the second Friday, leaving just after the last Friday.

    Gene, when exactly are you coming to Glos? Might be able to point you in the direction of other events in the area...

    Landing LHR early early on the 12th, going to Northleach, staying with friends there. Got a wedding to go to on the 14th. Will then be off to Maidstone, Kent maybe on the 18th or so. Unfortunately, bringing no instruments along this trip.

    There'll be other times, though. We stay in Northleach most trips over, or else Kent, down in Lewes, just N of Lyme Regis.
