What you need to know:

1. Arrive between 1:30 and 1:50 (we start playing at 2:00)
2. Street parking on only the right side of Ridge View Drive
3. Entrance is through the garage
4. Food is not available so eat lunch before you come
5. Bottled water is available or bring you own drink
6. If you can, bring a tablet and a music stand. If you can't bring those items, we have some to lend. You don't need to bring a guitar stand because we have plenty to use.

Please pick two or three songs from our online songbook at bit.ly/cjsongs

You can either lead the song or ask someone else to lead it if it is from the online songbook.

If you want to play a song that is not in our songbook, bring a dozen printed copies so that we can play along with you. Keep in mind that successful jam songs...

• match the skill levels of the group which is beginner through beginning intermediate
• are easy to follow on the sheet
• are very familiar or that other players can pick up on easily
• use common chords (A, Am, A7, C, C7, D, Dm, D7, E, Em, E7, F, G, G7)
• use between three and five chords
• have a slow to moderate tempo
• don't have complicated solos, difficult riffs, or key changes
• are songs that you are able to lead and sing; don't assume that anyone else will know the song you bring
