In Nashville at the Gibson factory, but you must have a pass too.

BTW, this is the same day that summer NAMM is open to the public http://www.namm.org/summer/2011/articles/all-are-invited-summer-namms-wanna-play-music-day

I did get an email from Gibson saying I was invited to participate in the jam... sounds interesting, but I dont know much about it...

Tony, if you could, tell me more about it.

In the past there were artist seminars/ demos, with Gibson the factory open. Later in the afternoon a jam was setup with different musicians, you didn’t have say on with whom you played with, or what songs to do.

I’ve done many, many blues jams, and since I sing & know a bunch of songs, most times everyone has to follow me on stage, that’s why you see me at the mic.
Then there are the national acts that play for the concert.

But, also in the past, Gibson fed everyone, and there was a free, yes, I wrote free, open bar. This year the Hard Rock Café is selling food & drinks..

From 2008
