3	The Venue
4	Playing Chords to about 130 tunes can be found on - http://www.catwhisperer.co.uk/django/ Tunes played at the club are on our playlist (Slide 5). Tips for those new to the music and jamming. A soloist will lead in with the melody and then signal to the next person to take over improvising. They in turn will signal to the next person and so on. The last soloist plays the melody to bring the tune to a close. Never play over a soloist as this causes confusion, always wait for your turn to solo. It is important to play at a volume to suit the soloist so he/she is heard. The sense of humour of our members ensures we will have a lot of fun.

Some people call me Larry others Doug which causes confusion at times. My facebook page Listen - Some of my recordings on acoustic and electric guitar.

We have anything from 10 to 17 musicians playing on club night so we will never get musical perfection – BUT – we will have a lot of fun trying. Come and have a jam next time you’re in Cornwall!
