Field notes
The host assembles each lineup from availability and instrument fit, with spots offered first come, first served among suitable players. The proposed setup lists a drummer, keys player, bassist, and up to two guitarists, with an optional auxiliary instrument and vocalist. The page distinguishes list enrollment from a confirmed session and says contact details stay with the host while only names, pronouns, and instruments go to assigned players.
