I'd be down for a jam session. What do you play? I play piano, guitar, both rhythm and lead and penny whistle..I can hold my own on accordion in a pinch.. I have an oval A mandolin coming in but I haven't figured the mando out yet. Im in the Lillington area
I'm also interested in finding a jam session.
There is this as well:

Thanks for the info. I'm in Mt Holly NC (close to Charlotte) but may have to make the drive. Looking for a session just to sit in & observe. Started mandolin about 4 months ago so still very much a newbie. Looking to learn & absorb from others.
I am trying to host a regular jam here in Chapel Hill. Any takers?
Amateurs practice until they can play it right.
Professionals practice until they can't play it wrong.

Just got back from seeing David Childers play a set. I do believe he still lives in Mt. Holly.

There is also a jam at the Bynum General Store.

Phil beat me to it Patty. Come check out the Library sometime. It varies a lot in quality/atmosphere/etc. based on who all shows up of course, but my two trips have been fun so far. Last week we had 4 mandolins to 5 guitars!

+1 on the Bynum General Store jam mentioned above.
I have been going to that semi regularly over the last ~4 months and there is always a good, friendly crowd.
Dodson's garage in Hillsborough, where I-40 and old NC 86 meet. Every 2nd Wednesday @7:30, this week is on. Always a good time.
hmm, will try to make some of these as well looks like Bynum General Store is only 20min from me. I am still trying to get a regular thing here in Chapel Hill if anyone is interested.

Yes, he "opened: at a coffee house in Mt Holly a few weeks ago. Personally, I thought he was better than the "main event". Would love to sit in a session with him but seriously out of my talent range. Just sit & soak it up; think I could learn a lot just from watching.....
Too late this week but will definitely mark it on the calendar for next time
Thanks for the info..
Just found out about this one Monday nights at Common Grounds Coffee and Music in Bunn, NC.

Thanks for the info; got to Troutman for their session & enjoyed hearing them play & just observing.
Bass, fiddle, couple of guitars & set of harmonicas. Great sound & very welcoming group
Could tell they had been playing together for a while. Took time to answer my questions & didn't seem to mind that I was an obvious novice.
I'm going back (this time I'll be brave enough to join in; I actually knew a couple of songs & those I don't know, I can listen & learn...)
@patty
All that plus 2 mandolins and a quiet banjo tonight.
