Later on that night, about ten bass players hung out in the main room, trying to jam. I say trying because it wasn't a pretty thing. Of the players that were there, it seemed like a number of them were not listening to what the others were playing. Instead of finding space for their own part amongst the activity, several of them were just playing what they wanted to play. This would be somewhat of a recurring trend throughout the early part of the week -- I started to call it the "Look At Me" syndrome. Mary, one of the campers, tried to bring some order to the chaos, but it wasn't very successful -- people keep getting louder and louder, making what little listening that was happening even harder. I sat in with the session for a very short period of time until I figured out what was going on, then pretty much didn't do the jam sessions anymore.
