HAVE YOU HEARD?! Brahm's Tams needs your support!

The community needs your positive feedback to Keep the Drum Circle Alive!
Tuesday July 13, 2010 was monumental my friends. The complainers out there are just so darn efficient. The one thing they are truly good at is consistently calling in, writing in and generally trying their best to get rid of anything that doesn’t fit into their mold of how things should be. So now the Vancouver Parks Board has a handful of negativity towards Brahm’s Tams and an empty hand of positivity. It is time we balanced those hands…actually let’s blow the negativity out of the water. There are dozens of complainers and hundreds of us who believe in community, free assembly and have experienced first hand what Brahm’s Tams is about. I say it’s time to share it with the Vancouver Parks Board, the Mayor, and frankly everyone else as well. Tell your neighbours and friends about your experience. Invite them to the circle as if it was your very own…because it is yours. It’s all of ours. If Stanley Park is the heart of the city, then we are its heartbeat.

I'm man enough to say that I shed some tears reading all the love and support that came in over a 2 day period. You honour me and each other. We are truly blessed. The meeting was long and some compromises had to be made, but 3rd Beach is our home! 3rd Beach is our home! Continue sending in the positive feedback, it's what they need. See you all next sunny Tuesday at the end of 3rd beach. Thank you all and thank you again. This circle is nothing without you. One Love.

Brahm's Tams Summer Solstice June 21, 2011

This year we had the honour of Summer Solstice landing on a Tuesday. This was by far one of the best drum circles Ever!!
At our peak there were 56 drums and hundreds of people. So many faces I remember and so many new faces drumming into year 5, all of them smiling back at me. What an incredible community gathering we have created all out of Love and mutual Respect. One comment I kept hearing was how much cleaner the sound was - how so many of the regulars were improving and that we were really listening to each other...it warmed my heart. Stanley Park is the heart of our city and we are it's heartbeat. One Love my friends
