jam-tuesday: Add jam setlists & stats for public consumption
I've been keeping these to myself for a while, and finally got around to
asking Matt if he'd be cool with me publishing them. I think it's a nice
thing to highlight on the site, and something I'll want to refer back to
in the years to come :)

+.Sh NAME

+.Nd setlists and notes from weekly jams
+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+For the better part of 2020 and carrying on today,
+my brother Matt and I have gotten together every Tuesday evening to play music.
+It started as a way to stay sane during the COVID quarantine,
+but it quickly became a tradition and a highlight of the week.
+No matter how stressful work was,
+or what was going on in the outside world,
+we could leave it all behind as we played some of our favorite tunes.
+.Pp
+At some point (woefully late),
+I realized it would be fun to start cataloging what we played.
+Now that I've got more than a handful recorded,
+I thought it would be fun to share!
+.Pp
+The setlists and some 'greatest-hits' stats are all plaintext files served up here:
+.Pp
+.Lk https://alexkarle.com/jam-tuesday/
+.Pp
+There are no recordings (at least publically),
+but there's a stray note here and there to "set the scene".
+.Pp
+Oh, and, unless otherwise noted,
+I'm on guitar and Matt's on keys
+(and if only one instrument is specified, it's me switching).
+We both (attempt to) sing.
+Sometimes we even harmonize :)

+Jam night with a twist! Not only did we continue the trend of Matt on
+guitar while I play bass, but Matt took bass on the some of my hit bass
+songs (Lauren, That I Miss You)! He nailed it of course.
+
+Banger of the night: Aunt Leslie--when Matt figured out that A Sua Voz
+had the same end chord structure ("My mind just melts away") and started
+the horn part on keys, it just clicked and came together spontaneously!
