Nashville's longest running rock & roll jam
by Kenny Utterback for the Music City Examiner
The "Play It Again Jam", Nashville's longest running rock
and roll jam, went on hiatus for almost a year, starting at
the end of 2007. Having lost their lease, the promoters of
the jam (Gary Allen, former drummer from Charlie
Daniels' band) and Pat Adams (of Tennessee
Concerts.com) had to search for a new venue for the
bi-monthly event.
For a short period, the jam regulars were topping the bill
for Music City Nights, while it was showcasing at the old
Mocambo Club location on 4th Avenue. When the venue
took a sharp turn toward mostly presenting upcoming
country music artists, the rock and roll jam didn't seem
like a good fit anymore, to the jam's promoters. So, the
search resumed for a better match.
It now appears that a great little club on 2nd Avenue
South called Windows Off The Cumberland, which
already deals in rock and roll, has partnered with the Play
It Again Jam promotional team to host the jam two nights
a month (the old 'Jam' format) starting in March. Jams
have already been held at the club, in December and
January, with another scheduled on Sunday, February
22nd. Photos and videos of these sessions can be seen
on the Tennessee Concerts website. To learn more
