This isn’t theory. It’s exactly how DAMJam (Danbury Area Music Jam) grew into a
ongoing successful music event in Danbury, CT.
Lessons, mistakes, triumphs — all shared to save you time and stress.
DAMJam went from 1/2 dozen to 25-30 regular attendees and a mailing list of hundreds
The camaraderie of the successful jam led to many folks socializing outside of the jam
Some Jammers even started bands together
The Jam became an important part of many Jammers lives
It's not just playing music — which is certainly fantastic - but the ability to get out of the house, away from the computer and television and have a reason to go out and socialize with others is a fab-tastic benefit.
