35 The Netherlands Open Musical Jam Sessions
Amsterdam, The Netherlands: [Blues/Jazz]
The Bamboo Bar at Lange Leidsedwaarstraat 66. Every Wednesday night,
beginning about 10 and going til about 2 AM. Anybody can play, players
range from beginners to really good amateurs. You need to show up early
or you might need to wait til pretty late (it's on first-come
first-served basis except for the first set.) Oh yeah, it's nominally a
Blues jam but you hear also some bluesy jazz (they think that's blues
here in Holland.)
