    Yep! And i did a search and found a pic you posted last month. I am coming with my friend Shelly and her husband. He is the one in the black utility kilt there. Am also bringing a friend of mine who will wear his kilt as well.


    Edit.. I also play thew bodhran. Only for a few months so far, but it is my favorite drum so far. I play quite a few. We have a drum circle every wednesday in Wahsington Square.

    Great! I'm hoping for a good turnout this month, and the band has promised to feature thier repertoire of Scottish songs for the occasion....

    My wife would love a bodhran lesson! I bought her one a couple of Christmases ago.

    Have a great time, guys. I hate to miss it, but family obligations force me to.

    I think Vic and Anne are going to miss it, too. They said something about being on vacation.

    I'll be there in November. I'm thinking of buying a bonnet for the occasion.

    EEk! Have not been playing for long, but maybe I will bring mine along and show her what a DO know. She is more than welcome to come to drum circle anytime. it is more tribal in nature, but I have learned the best way to play, is to play with others

    My friend and I (he will be coming saturday as well, with kilt on) made a website. BinghamtonDrum.com .. not much there as of yet, but we are hoping to bring the drumming community closer together. Anyone with a love for drums, no matter what type. For now, we just advertise our own little circle. I also play an ashiko, a djembe, the congas, bongos.. and a few others. LOVE drums.. Just recently I have been practicing the bodhran to celtic and scottish music. I have no idea where I can sit in somewhere, but they work well in a drum circle too.

    If you're talking about Rob Wandell, he's the guy I bought the bodhran from - one Christmas season when he was set up at the Mall. Small world...!

    Rob is not the friend who is coming.. but yes! Small world.

    Rob is a very good friend of mine.. he made a few of my drums. I got my bodhran there on credit. I work in his store and get paid in credit, and sometimes I run the drum circle.
