Yep Robin, The jam is certainly one of the pure joys of playing music and its more or less how i managed to get to grips with what little i have on the mandolin. When i started to give good time to the mandolin i mostly jammed with a friend who played on guitar theni was lucky enough to be invited to join in with a local group of musicians when they played a midweek table session. This is where the lack of volume on the cheap mandolin i had at the time proved to be a bit of a boon as i could get to grips with the songs without disturbing things too much, i learned a lot from those sessions, some good habits, some bad, but in general those sessions were a blast and i'd definitely say they helped me over the hump with regards performing or singing in public... though i still get a bit ropey with plug in gigs... but drop me in the sort of acoustic sessions like you decribe here i am in my element.
