New jam night in Norwich

I've seen a few posts here from musicians looking to jam, meet other musicians, form bands, and from people in general looking for social events. So here's a new event my band is putting on!

NIM Open Jam is a new monthly free-entry event at Gonzo's Two Room, starting on the 24th of February, from 19:30 to 23:00.

Facebook event page's text:

Bring yourselves, your instruments, your voices, and your souls (where applicable) to Norwich Improv Mafia's new monthly open jam night!

Expect a wide range of styles, including jazz, funk, hip hop, reggae, salsa, noise, dancing, etc. Whether you want to join in, soak up the creativity, or just fund this endeavour by buying drinks, you'll be in for an unforgettable experience.

After the house band gets things started, we'll start inviting people to join in. We'll have a sign-up sheet; put your name down early to guarantee a slot. Any genre or direction is valid. Just keep your ears switched on and listen to your fellow jammers as we all enter the unknown.

Equipment provided:
• Microphones
• Keyboard
• Drum kit
• Speakers

Never met someone through reddit before, so if you do come please say hi to Tom (the keyboardist)!

Music, of course. Obviously you meant the music sort of a jam night. Why would anyone get excited about the idea of a jam night about jam? Madness. Well I can't play anything so have a lovely time everyone.

I'd actually be all over a night all about pairing different jams with different scones etc.

Thanks! We're hoping it will be a monthly thing. So, this Thursday is the first, the next one is on the 17th March, and as long as the venue is happy with the turnout we'll be able to keep booking them every month. Hope you enjoy the experience!

Best of luck with the Gonzo night!
