I"M DOING A THING!!!!

General
YEEEEHAWWW!!!
I'm running a panel...... activity?
ANY WHO! I'm doing a thing! Here is what you need to know!
AS OF RIGHT NOW this is here we will be hanging out at:
Make sure to check your con schedule in case of any changes.
I'm bringing my Jimbe. Bring your own instrument or come to clap or stomp along.
This will be done in a drum circle style, so any one is welcome.
It may get loud depending on how many people we have, and so long as we are at least trying ( ;P ) to play together, we should sound decent.
For any one who comes in late, we aren't shutting you out!
So here is how you join in.
1) First you need to find a seat that's not taken. Now you don't have to sit. Some people will stand. Heck, I may even be on the floor to use it as my instrument. So any where is fine. Just find a spot.
2) LISTEN
This is important. listen to what is being done. Find the rhythm, or beat and recognize it.
3) Start playing. Once you hear the rhythm and beat you can add you own instrument to it. If you don't think you can keep up, or don't think you can add anything, just wait till you hear us change the tempo to something you can.
Yes. Even a free for all jamming session will have rules.
1: Be Respectful.
This is a given. Like with any art, it's important to be nice and considerate of others in the room.
2: Don't be an attention hog.
I get that you may want to show off and do a solo or something. That's fine! But try not to FORCE your way into the spot light at the cost of some one else. ALSO Don't drag it out and keep the attention 100% on you. Let others have a turn.
3: Be a team player.
This is a lot like numbers 1 and 2. But it also is about how every one is playing. The goal isn't to each be playing a different song with it's own tempo and beat. It's about working together to play the same impromptu music. Only when we play in a way that compliments each other, then are we playing music instead of making a huge ruckus.
4: BE RESPECTFUL!!!!
I'm serious guys and gals. Don't be degrading and mean to each other. I will not tolerate it.
I HOPE TO SEE YOU THERE!!
Make sure to check your con schedule in case of any changes.
