Los Alamos Slow Session

Play music together... slowly.
Where
my house (email me for directions).
When
Second Wednesdays at 6:30PM
What
We play a “set of the month” as slowly as necessary so that everyone can join in. Maybe we gradually get faster. You can learn all the songs in the set, or just focus on one: the idea is to play tunes in a group without having to worry about keeping up.
