Hi Everyone! 👋🏾 Our last event was quite the experience! 🤨 Let's talk about the next one. ✏️🗒 Another new museum for us! The recently re-opened Frick Collection is back! Established in 1920, the Frick Collection is home to 14th- to 19th-century European paintings, European fine and decorative art and much more! This is also a party so there will be drinks, light bites and live music! 🎶 🎵 The Frick Collection is free only the first Friday of every month with some exceptions so I'd like us to go in August! ⚠️ I can only book 20 tickets, so please DO NOT RSVP unless you are sure you can can come! If you RSVP and you are a no-show on the day of you will be removed from the Meetup group and all associated chats as you're taking up a space that someone could have taken. This is only because we're limited to 20 tickets! ⚠️ Hope to see you there! 📺Our IG @NYCCONNECTS

[NOTE - You may join any session, whatever day they take place - there is no formal grouping. If it's your first time, please reach out via DM here to confirm, and share what instrument, etc.] Open to acoustic guitar, electric guitar, bass, keyboards and vocalists. In this guided jam, we will play a large variety of songs from beginner to intermediate level at a location in Manhattan, midtown west neighborhood (near Port Authority). You can usually borrow an instrument, please confirm availability ahead. Rather than music lessons (and those are also available), what we supply is a playground for "talented amateurs" from beginner to intermediate level a chance to play with other people. We don't require a week-in, week-out commitment, but sign-up is first-come, first-served. We play most popular music styles (pop, rock, country, jazz, soul, folk, etc) and we'll try just about anything. As a group, we will work on specific songs we're focusing on, as well as try new things off the cuff. Bring in whatever you want! We will build week over week on certain songs. The leader is happy to share material to help participants advance their abilities. The location is at 43rd St & 9th Av, Manhattan, at 400 W. 43rd St, Apt 8S. 6:30-8:30 pm. $20 for an hour, and $30 for the whole night. Intro rate if you're a first timer: $5 off (so $15 or $25). Drop-in/drop-out situation fits flexible schedules. Led by Colin Taber, professional guitarist/singer http://www.colintaber.com
