Rain Chant

Chris and Rob made great use of the sound system last night! Using the microphone to emphasize the deeper drum gave their playing a different dimension. I attempted to join in by keeping the beat with a maraca-type shaker -- very cool mix of African and Indian sounds. It was resembling a pretty cool rain-chant -- although I'd hate to think that tornado-ish weather last night was on our account.

Let's get other instruments to add more flavor to the pot!

Jerry brought a few of his pieces of artwork. He refers to them as "Junk Art" because that's what they're made from -- scraps and parts of left-over metal, wire and rods -- to result in sculptures.

As Donnie mentioned, Jerry's work is especially cool because he takes the time to actually create the thing that we all might see in a scrap of metal... "Hey, that hunk looks like a hand!"... Well, Jerry actually finds a way to MAKE that hunk into a hand. "Junk Art" Very cool! Pix to come soon..........
