GUEST,fiddlesticks When a session gets Hijacked (87* d) When a session gets Hijacked 27 Jul 01


the other discussion about this seemed to be getting pretty personal, so what are the answers?

Most people start going to a session because they love the music and want to play it. Is it a crime to want it played WELL?

When the sessions get popular and the atmosphere gets fun, it attracts people with far less commitment than the original ones had. I'm not saying they're bad people, on the contrary, they love the music, Some even join in although they're not ready to play at the established level. Soon the chatting with friends gets really loud. At first it's imperceptable but soon you can notice that the good musicians are having to play louder and louder just to be heard. You can't play well when you're just pumping it out.

Other than the original group who just wanted it played well, moving on, what's the solution?
