Of late I have totally fallen in love with playing again, done a little bit of gigging with pickup bands and definitely feel like doing a lot more with it (maybe even getting paid for it once in a while!).
How do go about getting yourself out there, making it known you are available etc. I prefer the idea of ad hoc groups rather than commuting to one band or musical style, kind of how it seems to be with the jazz fraternity - there seems to be a large number of musicians who can play together in almost endless permutations, the variety of which I find really appealing.
I may not (ever) be competent enough as a true jazzer, but I do feel I have something to offer, and I am up for most things - the question is "how do I get in there?"
