Thanks @Jim_Krozz for hosting.

I have been posting my thanks on the blog pages, but just in case, thanks Jean and Jim for hosting the last couple of vom nights I had a blast

Well, the whole idea of playing in front of people is close to terrifying to me, but it piques my interest to participate in one of the VOMs, even if as a quiet sideline lurker with guitar in hand. I hope that will be acceptable. I am going to start following all the blogs.
I think the idea of VOMs is good because those of us to can’t get to anything local are given a chance to participate with people from all over. I sure hope they continue after the pandemic allows us to meet in person. For folks like me, it might be the first step to being brave enough to do something in person.

Hi @darcelle , it’s a great first step to simply attend. Attendance does not require you to play. We may ask if you’d like to play, but you can easily decline and we won’t prod you further than that.
Hopefully what you’ll discover by attending is that we display all levels of playing ability and the feedback is non-judgemental and super supportive. If support is all you can muster at this time, that is perfectly acceptable, however if you should gather enough courage to play for us, it can be life-changing, as others have attested to.
If for nothing else, just know that you are welcome to attend any of our VOMs.

@Real-Vic-G . . . Attend I did, today! I didn’t play, but I certainly enjoyed the time I was there.
Thanks to all the VOM hosts for the work they are doing to keep these going.
