The Jam Session outside stage is for performances by exhibitors' endorsers, drummers competing in a drum set solo contest , and a jam session house band of Nashville Professionals for drummers who want to sit in and jam. It runs the same hours as the exhibit hall, 10 to 5. If you have a performer you would like to showcase at this stage please call George and discuss. There is no renumeration for this; we provide the venue, the crowd and the gear, you provide the noise.
