Also on Sunday, Drum Church devotees get together for another spiritual journey at: AD Barnes Park – clearing near Nature Center (or fall-back location – see below) 3401 SW 72 Avenue – northeast corner of Bird Rd and 72 Ave 10:00 am – 12:00 pm
Notes: If the shady grove (primitive camping area) near the AD Barnes Park Nature Center is not available, we can fall back to the picnic table under the tree by the canal, or, if needs be, the shelter on the other side of that canal (a good place if it’s rainy). Here’s the address of that fall-back shelter for the Google-mappers:
“6990 N Waterway Dr, Coral Terrace (Miami), FL, United States
[Address is approximate]“…
We play inside the forest! To get there, park in the first available spaces to the left as soon as you enter the park, and head into the forest from that side. Through the forest gate, the wooden deck is shaded and has seating.
Surdos, dunns, and other “bottom” drums are welcome; but other than that, hand drums only, please.
The AD Barnes Park people like what we are doing; but they do ask us to please not park in the clearing itself, but to park our cars out by the paved access road.

Then the following day – Sunday 28th Delou is having another drum and dance class at FIU
Buddy Helm has being playing drums for all his life. Traditionally trained in the drum set, he played with legends such as Tim Buckley and Peter Ivers, inventor of the new wave theatre, as well as many other Los Angeles bands. He is an educator and author of several books: The Way of the Drum and Drumming the Spirit to Life: Let the Goddess Dance. He attended Paralounge for two healing workshops. Here are some fragments of an interview that I was able to do.
I thank Buddy for the interview and the workshops he performed at Paralounge.
