Instrument choice—not a promised set list—is the key planning detail for the Nov. 21 Workingman’s Dead Jam: the listing offers two additional guitar RSVPs, while players seeking drums, bass or keys are directed to a waitlist.
The listed players are Michael on drums, Phil on bass and Bob McCarthy on guitar. The organizer has opened two additional guitar RSVPs, allocated first come, first served; players looking for drums, bass or keys are asked to join the waitlist instead.
That makes the roster an important part of deciding whether to attend as a musician. The event listing says people who sign up should show up; a no-show will receive a payment request.

The posted song pool ranges from “Cold Rain and Snow,” “Bertha” and “Feel Like a Stranger” to “Terrapin Station,” “Althea,” “Shakedown Street” and “Eyes of the World.” It also includes “Peggy O,” “Jack Straw,” “Ramble On Rose,” “Sugaree,” “Stella Blue” and a Bob Dylan song whose title is still to be determined.
The organizer explicitly frames these as songs the group might not play. They give prospective players a sense of the material under consideration, but no particular title or playing order is promised.

The group describes its sessions as monthly meetups at Smash Studios that have continued for more than 10 years. It has no house band, welcomes players of all skill levels and is not organized around forming a permanent lineup.
The group also says it rarely repeats a song in consecutive jams and does little circling back to redo material. That points toward shared playing through a changing pool of Grateful Dead tunes, rather than rehearsal of a fixed program. The group profile says the studio provides amps, drums, microphones and keyboards for its sessions; that general description does not confirm the equipment setup for this date.
