--Previous Jam-- Everyone wins at a jam because everyone gets to play, but at the last Online Jam Mojo Red won a little more than everyone else. Mojo Red received the most votes. Therefore, the two people responsible for the Bluesharp.org Funk Jam, Rick Beall and Mitch Weiss, wish to extend a hearty congratulations to Mojo. Great work! For a whileWill Vogtman was a major threat, but Mojo stayed in the lead.
--The New Jam-- Well, Bluesharp.org is pleased to announce a new contest, and this contest has some new twists! To see just what they are, you will need to visit www.bluesharp.org/jam.html . I will only say that you will be quite surprized.
You enter the jam by going to www.bluesharp.org/jam.html and downloading the backing track. Your record your harp against it, and then upload it. Every time a new song is uploaded, everyone can vote again. The final decision concerning who did the best overall will be decided by the judges. The judges will be heavily influenced by the voting patterns. This jam runs until May 31 2002.
There will be two judges in the jam, myself and a celebrity judge. This time I've enlisted harp teacher guru Jon Gindick. Jon wrote the backing track for the contest, a song called "I'm Here", and he is going to be hanging out in our forum giving playing tips.
