We're coming up on a full year of clubhouse meetings held every 3rd Saturday each month fallowing our 2nd St. Louis Cigar Box Guitar Festival. Club meetings are fun and important in developing community involvement into homemade instrument & music.
We've met several dozen new friends, some who just happened in off the street and discovered us. Drummers, guitar maestros, singers have embellished us with tasteful hours of entertainment. It's been a very positive supportive group that willingly accepts everyone on any level whether beginner or advanced.
Meeting give us the time to relax while sharing our huge variety of instruments that make their way through the clubhouse. Learning each others methods and swapping parts and materials.
You need a place to meet. Preferably indoor with electric outlets, but not absolutely necessary. It helps to have someone that leads the group in order to keep things actively moving along. Introductions, icebreaker topics like builds or events.
Next, ask who'd like to start a jam and lead off. It usually doesn't take more than that before the group comes to life.
We're blessed with the http://www.hwy61roadhouse.com that gives us 3 free hours of club house meetings with table/chairs and a stage. It's every 3rd Saturday from 9-11AM Free drinks and loads of fun.

Again we play our guitars today
A different sound is how they're made
As we build them to the day we die
Then it's by by American pie
