Drum circle

Last wenesday I went to a west African drum circle in a little village hall in surrey England. It was the first time I had been to one of these. I've been to lots of pow wows with that rythmic beat of the drum, that lulls me into a sort of oneness with my creator. This west African drumming was amazing. To be one of the drummers in this circle was a real treat.I had a lot of trouble keeping in time with the other drummers. Eventually I caught on, still need years of practice but that didn't stop me enjoying myself. At one point I was giggling at myself, I felt like I was 12 years old,with the whole rest of my life ahead of me. I will definitely go again.
