Advanced Jambot Reno Invitational Pub Jam
Advanced Jambot weekly at Ceol Irish Pub...What is a Jambot? This jam is very unique. You've probably heard the terms, "Beginner" and "All Level" used to describe jams here in our area. We have a lot of them, and they are "just right" for many pickers.
But, advanced players deserve to have a jam of their own, too! Well, thanks to the Friendly Jambot, we now have an Advanced Jam here in Reno -- the Reno Invitational Pub Jam, every Thursday, at Ceol Irish Pub!
The Jambot randomly selects 5 different players each week. Players must be well versed in Bluegrass music and able to play -- from memory (or improvise appropriately) -- any tune called. No song sheets or music stands, acoustic instruments only. Providing solid rhythm, playing lead solos, singing leads and/or harmony, and understanding "Jam Etiquette" are all desired skills, and the Jambot uses a very sophisticated algorithm to find players that match two or more of these criteria.
