Is anyone in the Memphis area interested in getting together for old time jams? We need fiddle, guitar and frailin' banjos, as well as other acoustic instruments.

Dulcimer Forums

Join in a monthly mountain dulcimer forum on the first Tuesday of each month, 8:00-9:00 p.m. CST. Jeff Hames hosts the forum, and myself and other mountain dulcimer players and instructors discuss dulcimer issues and ask and answer questions. The topic for February 12 is Ensemble Playing and Chording. Past topics are archived for viewing and comment.
Jeff will also begin hosting a Hammered Dulcimer forum beginning March 18, 2008 from 8:00-9:00 p.m. CST. The first topic is What to Look for in a Hammered Dulcimer. Use the link above.
