Looking for a way to start a band, join a band, or just play with some like-minded musicians?  Got an instrument you want to buy, sell, or trade? Try posting a free ad here.  (acoustic musicians and SFS members from Inland NW only, please)  If you're just interested in playing at a jam, first check out the SFS jam page.  Jams are good ways to meet other similar musicians, but mostly they have to settle on common ground, so a lot of your best music may never get played.  This might be a good place to connect with your favorite musical styles, or to float ideas for great musical/folk dance events in the Inland Northwest (greater Spokane area).  Just email the webmaster (webmaster@spokanefolklore.org) with  your contact information and whatever text you wish to include.  You may want to include what instruments you play, what general area you live in, how long you've been playing, favorite musicians or styles, etc.  Here are some sample categories and entries, but other folk music categories are welcomed.  If you are leary of stating your identity to the world, say so in your email and a contact nickname can be used.  We reserve the right to refuse any ads deemed unsuitable.
