Howdy friends! I hope you can join us at the Five & Dime Ale House for the Baltimore Old Time Jam this Tuesday, August 6 from 7-10:30pm. The jam will be co-lead by Ken & Brad Kolodner. After a month of non-stop travels, I'm very much looking forward to co-leading the Old Time Jam this Tuesday. Let's jam! Bring your instrument of choice to join in or simply soak in the scene while enjoying great food and drink (50% off food and $3 Oliver pints after 8pm). All levels and instruments are welcome. We'll kick things off with the slow jam from 7-8:15pm followed by the fast jam 8:15-10:30pm. See you Tuesday!
