Looking for people to "jam" with

Looking for people to "jam" with. (me: Guitar player, rhythm/ lead) My influences and what I like are all over the place. I'm looking for people who can play that know how to listen!! If you understand the following then we may be a good fit. (I didn't write it but the guy who did couldn't have said it any better!) ------------------ " People who think the jam thing is boring aren't doing it right, or seeing it done right. Just vamping while people take turns soloing is not "jamming" as I see it. When me and my guys go on extended romps, we go everywhere we can conceivably take it. It might start out as funky/bluesy take on a Miles Davis head in 4/4, and before it's over, it's hit country, rumba, polka, and all points in between, then the drummer will switch up the groove yet again, and it'll make the bass player think of some other song entirely, so he'll quote the melody for a couple of bars, and we'll be hip deep in that one. Sometimes things get trancey and loopy, but for the most part, if we're on a trip, we're actually going somewhere. People like it. They come to see it, and we never have trouble booking gigs. I never got how anybody could be "bored" by the Grateful Dead, or the Allman Bros., etc. If you are listening, they never stop moving. Too many of the young jam bands I've seen in clubs don't get that. I call them vamp bands. There is an art to jamming well, and you need players who know what's up, and can really pull it off, which mostly involves actively LISTENING to what's going on around you. It's not just about soloing for ten minutes."
