2 guitars
2 synthesizers
1 cello
1 saxophone
1 trumpet
1 electronic drums
My friend knew them but he had never played with them (he played the synthesizer btw) and i didn't know anybody but we ended up playing like 5 songs and the other ppl in the workshop gathered around and cheered us like we were doing a rock show when we were just musicians messing around. 
it was a really basic jam with basic progressions so we could all follow it but the trumpeter was pretty good and elaborated a bit and the Cello girl just rocked it she was really good.
They streamed the show online through youstream i think. |
Nice. Thats an interesting mix of instruments, and those are some of the best ways to jam. I once started playing my acoustic all by myself at a campground with no one around me for at least a football field away in each direction, but ended up with about 4 guitar players, 3 singers and some bongo's with a full bon fire and party going on around it by nightfall. It was one of the best jams I've ever had.
Today seems like a good day for a ride after work.
