Its good for about once a week or so... Don't think I'm rolling to DV either this time, it conflicts with power to the peaceful here in SF and I don't want to drive up for a short weekend. Some of my best gatherings have been the small ones, as people pull together and step up more than when there is a lot of heads present. paul Tue, 08 Sep 2009 01:55:00 GMT http://djembedunun.tribe.net/thread/215a0e1e-6422-4425-9cb0-1907db779b61#01ee2eff-7d90-43d9-bae3-707f90fae951 P 2009-09-08T01:55:00Z http://djembedunun.tribe.net/thread/215a0e1e-6422-4425-9cb0-1907db779b61#f85a7b13-3645-429f-83ed-db2b7f29c61c hey dundun villager! haven checked tribe in about a year.

Two gatherings are planned for sometime around next summer -- one near Port Townsend, probably in July, & one near Twisp in E. Wash., timing to be determined. I'll post more details as they become known.

Southern Oregon in the house! Represent! Can't wait til the spring gathering! Hoping to bring down a big posse from So. Or. this year. We have a lot of dundun family out here in Ashland/Williams/Takilma/Medford. Neither of my drum teachers will come because there are no hotels nearby. You'd think after living in Africa all these years they'd be up for the rustic livin'. Weeds out the crowd, I guess.

Been to DV camp, a couple of times, and a bunch at Rainbow. Much respect to all of those players who have inspired me... Now, I'm livin in Santa Cruz, where there are some awesome classes goin on for dancing, and the drummers, many who I've seen playing at DV, are there, RAGING it... I am going on Common Vision Fruit Tree Tour, where we play west african rythms, and plant trees with kids at urban schools in CA! Hope to be learning a bunch this year, been studying a bit of rythms from Owa's book, "West African Rythms", a nice compilation I picked it up at DV last summer.... Peace out!

Andrew that sounds like a huge drum circle ! Personally our most powerful circles are with only three or so djembes w/ one lead player and three djuns or course. I play the djuns and really am one of the only who builds and plays them in the philly area, that I know of, regardless lets keep expanding limitlessly into the organic rhythms !

Hey Lance, this is paul from the SF's east bay. I'm undercover spreading the rhythm revolution. I think the common vision crew and a few others are in and around. I cant remember who all at this point. by the way, some of the pics for this tribe were from the last DV gathering. I didnt put anyones face (not a good security issue) but I wanted some dunun action represented. alot of the time people all all "djembe-djembe-djembe" so I thought I would balance it out a bit. paul Tue, 03 Jan 2006 21:29:06 GMT http://djembedunun.tribe.net/thread/215a0e1e-6422-4425-9cb0-1907db779b61#6136423d-2759-49e4-8280-b0f5906bcc91 P 2006-01-03T21:29:06Z http://djembedunun.tribe.net/thread/215a0e1e-6422-4425-9cb0-1907db779b61#32d94fb5-79fc-4c0e-aaa1-bbf06b49828d Just wondering if any members of this tribe attend Dunun Village...
