London Jazz Musicians - may be of interest?

[Number6]

A fairly local pub / venue to me is starting up a monthly jazz jam night.

The pub is the Forest Tavern in Forest Gate, London E7 and it also runs regular monthly gigs too.

May be of interest to somebody.

Doesn't state if you can use music stands or not

It's Jazz.....surely they're not needed as the notes can be played in any order

But happens if they all play them in the same order, would that then be New Orleans and not as advertised.

Jack DeJohnette would do a whole gig on just a music stand.....

Surely the audience would walk out.....that is just so amateurish using a music stand.

Usually get into East London when we go back. I like jam nights (as an audience member) so thanks for the info.
