Pine Plains Views

A Video Celebration of Rural Community

Wednesday Jam

E-mail

Local folks who like to play bluegrass, they have been getting together on Wednesday nights for over 40 years. They never had a name for their group so I just call it The Wednesday Jam.

When I came across them they had been playing in Pete and Cindy Howe's kitchen where I took these videos.  I like their music, I like them, but I am really wild about the diverse make-up of the group.  As I develop this site I hope to introduce you to these musicians in their other roles.  But for now, enjoy their music!

How about an encore? Joe Clark.  Let's see who finishes first!

Fantastic. In keeping with the heritage along the Appalachian Trail running N to S in the U.S.A. May the music and the people who make it....live on!

Why

I came to Pine Plains a few years ago by choice, not by chance of birth. But the small-town rural community I chose is changing. The farmers have, for the most part, sold to people from the city and fields are becoming lawns.

I am making this journal to preserve what I can of a changing way of life and to share it with the community. On a more personal level, I am making this as a way of holding on to the reasons why I came here.
