Welcome back you all..................


Wednesday already and I owe you some thoughts about whats been happening up here at our drumming lives and more, yes. We had our friends from Austin, Texas arrive late Friday night at the Gallery. I was supposed to met them there but it was way too late when they arrived and I worked the next day, so I was kinda bummed to think I would miss them after all that positioning on the phone for several days before. Next day I heard they were staying another day to see everybody , so, I was elated! We ended up going to the bar that night and having a mighty good time and seeing all of our friends who we haven’t seen in quite a awhile, plus catching up with all the things we needed to catch up with. We almost closed the place down and I was feeling pretty good about showing our friends a good time just like the old good times we knew so well!
Drumming was really good and big. Things are changing in a good way since Gary put a fence up to keep all the people out of slickee that need to stay out. All the trashers and people from the valley who don’t respect the place. They don’t belong down there and can go and trash somewhere else. Its starting to be nice and quite again down by the river and this also has a lot to do with how the drummings go. Jon talking to the crowd mid way into our drumming about leaving litter at the drumming site and not drinking at our drummings. We aren’t against drinking but its not a kegger dudes and its not a big party either, its drumming and please participate with us and see why we have been doing it so long and why its really a pretty cool thing to play music in the most primitive way. We had many dancers and we are always thankful in a big way for that. Thank You all for coming and drumming with us.

Thankyou to Jon, Rene', Gary, etc. for taking steps to keep the drumiming circle a safe place....admit I hesitate to come sometimes during summer months when too many "unrulies" show up...
