Jazz Jam etiquette

  • Come prepared! Know your tunes and keys. 
  • Please choose tunes available in iReal. 
  • Paper charts discouraged – 1-2 pages max taped together, we are outdoors, windy! 
  • We’ll call people who signed up in advance first, to sit in on one tune. 
  • As time permits, we call up people for a 2nd (or 3rd) tune.
