Hey,
Check out Peanut Butter Jam, Wafi rooftops, Friday's from 8pm. Loads of local bands and singers doing their thing and people are welcome to get up and have a go.

Went to a place called Bar Zar in jumeria village, the moment I arrived in Dubai. There was a pretty cool 3 girl band (vocalist, bassist, guitarist).
Definitely worth checking out. Cool place too! (and cheap drinks :D )

Well I'm into music for making a living, but can't play an instrument for toffee. The closest you'll get me to being musical is wailing at Harry Gatos!

No more info as I might give myself away and ruin the point of being anonymous.

Thanks for the advice guys. Chocoholic, I will check that site out. Sleepless, saw the band in Bar Zar and was impressed. Would like to have my own group though, maybe not even anything official, just jamming. Constantine, I'm a singer essentially but I also play guitar and teach music to elementary school kids. Fancy a jam session sometime?

DXBgoddess, glad you enjoyed Bar Zar :D
I've been on and off trying to teach myself acoustic guitar for the past year, but haven't had much luck :?
Do you give private or group sessions? Do you teach young adults or only kids? PM me the details if possible.
Thanks! :D
