An ongoing story about the Kaweah River Drum Circle which meets every Sunday Night at the Cort Gallery in Three Rivers, California. We have become a tribe after 23 years of drumming together and meeting many like minded friends.

Our Big Fire last night worked just great! We were warm and cozy. Sometimes people bring things to throw in the fire to burn, old bills, documents, art work, and furniture. No shredder needed, just burn baby burn. It’s that way with letting go of stress too. Jose came up last night and released all the stress he had built up over the holidays. All the stress of bringing up a family, and the all the things that go with a high stress work environment. He started dancing around wildly as if possessed by some other being. He Yelled at the top of his lungs, and stared up straight in our eyes. It wasn’t scary though, because we could feel it too. We were relieving our stress by just watching him relieve his. This went on all night, I guess this is what speaking in tongues is like, because he was. We drummed a mighty drum groove that filled the air above Three Rivers with our Sunday night signature. All the while the gallery was dark and locked up, the trolls up in their room. We noticed that the Jolly Roger was flying up above the tower, how appropriate
