You've been to some different Old Time jams than I have, Justin. I'd be hard-pressed to show up at an old time jam with my F-style around here, and a buddy who plays a sort of loose, melodic style of clawhammer banjo gets routinely jeered. You either stick straight with the melody or you let the chords ring or you start feeling the ear burn. Good to know there's some who have the right mentality out there....

In my experience old timers are much less likely to make a comment or scowl about the way anyone is playing. When you go to a bluegrass jam and play clawhammer, that's when there is trouble.
