I was wondering, what's the current best way to find musicians to play with? I'm talking about finding a band-member, or a few people to jam with, etc. or even a sessions musician to help you enhance your solo stuff. Back in the day the best networking was done at gigs! I've picked up two band members directly from a gig in Razz Rhino

Whats worked for you? This could be a useful thread for everyone out there, so please share your experiences.
