As I mentioned in another thread, I just went to my favorite fiddler's picnic of the summer, three days & nights of jamming with old time fiddlers, bluegrass pickers, country singers, etc.

One of the things I started to observe was just how odd (from my viewpoint) some people's body language/behaviour is when they're jamming.

For instance, one singer/mandolinist kind of leans forward, his butt poked and his face jutting forward as he strains to sing and play. Perhaps more alarming, is the way he intermittently sticks his face up next to yours as you're singing, trying to blast a harmony into your ears at exactly the wrong moment.

A banjo player I know sort of stands with one leg twisted around the other as he plays his breaks. A couple of guitar players hunch over their instrument, looking like, as the old saying goes "a money buggering a football" !

I realized that I probably have some quirks too. Just not aware of them yet. What are some of the oddities you are aware of, or have seen at jams or on stage ?
