Workshop partipants need to be ready to play by 8, so arrive by 7.45. Please prepare a given part from the tutorial. We welcome mistakes, but only from courteous, aware and repsectful players.
Jazz Jam Performers don't be afraid to bring us something unpolished. Our priority is to grow the community of musicians playing video game music.
Audience members (everyone) show love and support to the whole community, regardless of their skill. Our community is about passion for video game music, we have no room for snobs.
Game ON!
