> Hi HMP
> I played in different groups for many years in my younger years, from a
> jazz/rock group (Spyro Gyra type music) to being the production and sound
> manager for a national modern christian group.  I now only play solo but
> expect that the social norms haven't changed much.  I  know that getting 
> in
> the mainstream of musicians is the way to rub elbos so to speak.  Jamming
> with other musicians is an excellent way to show your stuff and meet other
> musicians (and have a good time too).   Many local music stores have jam
> sessions at their stores after hours on a regular basis.  They also 
> usually
> have a message board where you can post your desire for hopeful 
> like-minded
> musicians.
>
> I would recommend that you also join the music email list with this list
> serve as I know there are several musicians there who currently play with
> groups.
