Tonight my father-in-law and I went down to Lafayette for a bluegrass jam. Lafayette is a little south of Mallet Creek. A couple of weeks ago I took him to Homerville for a similar kind of jam but this one was much bigger.
In Lafayette there is a large stage with a very nice sound system. Each of the rooms had musicians playing Bluegrass and Old Time music. I had a blast wandering from room to room. I took a ton of pictures and sang every song that I knew and learned a bunch more.
Late in the evening my banjo instructor went on stage with some great players and after a few songs did a great frailing (clawhammer) version of Shady Grove.
I took a lot more pictures. The quality isn't as good as I'd like as I didn't use a flash. If you are interested you can check them out by going HERE
