    Wishin I was still in Colorado, but I have recently moved to Missouri. So I'll make the best of it...

    If anyone is in the area check out any of the Schwagstocks... or other events held in Camp Zoe deep in the Missouri woods. They tend to have great drum circles till dawn when there is music.

    It looks like you just missed your Birmingham community circle earlier this week.

    Check Hippieinmyhead's link from page 2 or just click here

    The Birmingham community circle is the second Saturday of the month. The link above has location and email info.

    It's only 2 more months until the big Paralounge regional drum gathering November 18th-20th at Spirit of the Suwannee Music Park in Live Oak, FL

    www.paralounge.net
    www.musicliveshere.com

    the drum gathering happens the weekend following the Down on the Farm Festival in Quincy, FL...about an hour or so away. We'll be hearing two nights of Govt. Mule, among others while there.

    www.spanishmossproductions.com

    That gives you at least three chances to get out with others, and drum b4 the big p-lounge gathering.

    Hope to see you there.

    Though I have never made the 350 mile trip to the Montana Kidz drumming circle in Bozeman, Montana, I believe it is a full moon friday night drum circle, the circle's epicenter lies somewhere between the local drum store and Montana State University civic center.

    I have all intentions of finding a drum before I show up at a circle or start one...One day timing will work out and I'll have a drum at the full moon circle...

    Every Wed night around midnight, there's a drum circle at the Last Concert Cafe in downtown Houston. A pretty decent jam band plays, and between sets, there's a drum circle. It varies each week how many people are there, but it's a blast.

    i love drum circles, and go to pow wow's all the time just to listen to them and play my own drum. drums are so primitive and take you back to the beginning of time

    i can't figure out how to start a new thread, but wanted to post this very important date:

    Earth Awareness Day
    Sunday, December 11th
    3PM local time

    Earth Awareness Day is our opportunity to come together as a global family and unite in our efforts to halt the environmental decline and heal the planet. Jane Tinworth, a respected healer from Devon, England, (who has been featured on a BBC special on healers of great skill and integrity) is calling forth a Global Prayer on Sunday, December 11th at 3 p.m., local time. The intent is to send healing energy to the planet, with a particular focus on the North and South Poles, as well as the Oceans. You are welcome to do this in your own unique way. The following are some suggestions from Jane, if you want to gather a group of people together. Please invite friends and people on your e-mail lists to participate on Dec. 11th at 3PM in whatever way they would like, and ask them to spread the word.

    Thank-you for your help in connecting your hearts and prayers together with people around the planet,
    honoring and blessing this sacred Earth.

    this is a great link that includes all updated drum circle information includes dates times and location and it's broken down by state. obviously this is not all of the drum circles but this will get you started.. BTW if anyone in the Mass (boston area) wants to join me some sunday night at one of the local circles your more than welcome too.

    you are going and you don't know what it is?

    I take it you are not a drummer.
    Its a community (anyone can play) circle, usually, where a few decent (hopefully) drum leaders set the base beat, and the players improvise from there.
    Many allow/ feature/ encourage dancing.

    Watch and figure out which is the case at yours.
    Some will charge a buck or two to offset rental costs in buildings.
