I have guests over most Friday nights since 2013. The core of which started as myself (guitar), Karl S (keys) and Billy Schep (drums). We went under the name “Garage Underground” as the studio is under the garage. We have had various guest of the years that “sit in”, those that are advanced players, and those more intermediate. We never really care where the guests land in that ability scale as we are primarily here to socialize and share the evening.  
Karl S. past March of 2021, so the “Core” shrunk to Bill and I. AKA “Two Men and a Machine”
“Garage Underground” was no more. We moved on to “The mighty Mancave Art Players” since that time when we are joined by regulars and special guests.
Jim W. has been contributing guitar/song writing since 2018 +/-, and Diane has joined on bass since 2020 as well.  They both contribute on an every other weekend average. 
No one need worry about not showing up, as It's always been a no pressure here mantra. We have all been in numerous bands over the years that can suck the fun out of playing under such circumstances of a working band.
