The History

February 1993, San Marcos, Texas: a phone call is made to a couple of members of George Strait’s Ace in the Hole Band from a member of Clay Blaker’s Texas Honky Tonk Band, a group that had often played shows with George and Ace In The Hole. The inquiry was about starting up a country jam session at a small, but popular night club on the town square. The jam would provide a place for players and singers to hone their skills on a normally off night and give some of the Ace in the Hole guys a place to pick when not on tour. On Monday, March 8th, 1993, the Monday Night Jam began.
