720P-HD “Bluegrass Nuggets”
WHILE PANNING FOR NUGGETS I FOUND PURE GOLD PICKERS IN A PARKING LOT! THEY CALLED IT THE OCOEE PARKING LOT BLUEGRASS JAM.
Jam sessions are for players to interact with other players and make music in a freewheeling environment, without having to be concerned about pleasing an audience. Some jams are impromptu, one-time occurrences, while others are weekly events that may happen in a private setting or in a public venue. Jams may focus on a particular style of music or even a particular instrument, and every jam has its own culture and etiquette.
As you watch, keep in mind this is an OPEN JAM. It is not a rehearsed performance. Each picker, in turn, chooses a tune, and he or she sings or plays it accompanied by all the other pickers. Everyone gets a chance no matter the skill level. The Jam meets every Friday evening at 6:30 in the parking lot behind the Pizza Hut at 15840 West Colonial Dr., Ocoee, Florida 34761.

TECHNICAL: Apologies for the grainy, dark appearance in sections of the video. This is the result of the pickers gathering farther from the usual parking lot light. Much of the video was shot in available darkness. This didn't affect the great sound. You'll notice a high-pitched buzzing early during the daylight portion of the video. This temporary interference is caused by locusts in the tree above the pickers.
