Enjoy The Roof ResponsiblyFor some, the best room at the Jam is the one without walls. We're happy to announce that the resurfaced roof deck has re-opened. We've also added a screen door and an all-weather "stepdown" to keep your feet dry. Please help keep the roof area nice by putting your cigarette butts in the handy ash can, and throwing out your garbage in the appropriate receptacles.

Crate V5Although it's a bit premature to start taking reservations, it now looks like our new Studio 4 will open before the end of September. We'll let you know exactly when as we get closer. In the meantime, gear for Studio 4 has already started to arrive. Everybody loves new gear.

 Extended Forecast

The BebutlesThursday(9/6): Jam Showcase at The Red Lion featuring three (coun't 'em!) bands making their first appearance. Catch the debut of Baggage, the return of the Obscure Blues Band, the debut of The Rebutles, the debut of The Mofos, and, of course, The Rolling Bones. It's gonna be a night to remember.
 
 Law & Order

Please note that invitations to play in Jam Showcases are made to specific bands for specific time slots. You may not transfer the invite to another band, trade your timeslot with another group, or redeem the offer for cash. I'm just saying.

 Education

Michael MarkusIt's almost Back To School time, so we thought we'd add several instructional programs in late September/early October: A Vocal Workshop (courtesy of our dear friends at Liz Caplan Vocal Studios) and a Hand Drumming Workshop (with the wonderful Michael Markus). We usually set up these kinds of events by popular demand, so if you're looking for something else, just ask. If there's enough interest, we'll make it happen.
