There are at least 2 churches in this area named St. John's (the
Methodist church at 27th and St. Paul and an Episcopal church on
Greenmount). I'm guessing that it is St. John's Methodist on St.
Paul. Is that correct?<br>

Save the date…</div>
<div>For the 11th Annual Rhythm Festival, known this year as the
“Rhythm Gathering.”</div>
<div>The 11th annual BIRDS Rhythm Gathering will be held on October
1, 2005, at St. John’s Church. <br>
It will start at 2:00pm with a drum circle jam outside of the church,
and go through midnight.</div>
<div>Part of the philosophy of a “gathering” rather than a festival
is more of an intimate feel, and also a true gathering of the Baltimore
area community of drummers to participate in the festival
themselves—not just attend. This community is a unique drumming
community: it is rich, diverse, and draws people from many surrounding
areas.</div>
<div>During the day, we have a Dunun drum workshop with Urban Foli,
Jaqui is back with Drum for Joy!, Zaipo will be rocking the house with
his African dance workshop, Ken Krampton will be working with the
children for a kids workshop, and more. Workshop prices will be
available soon. All day long there will be marketplace vendors (drums
for sale!), a Kid’s Corner sponsored by Port Discovery, beverages and
food from Yabba Pot.</div>
<div>The evening will kick off at 6pm with all of you onstage,
showcasing your local stuff to the community, and then the evening
performances start at 8:00. We will be joined by Egyptian Sun Belly
Dancers, and to top it off, Urban Foli will end the evening performance
night with a BLAST as we then move into the community drum jam until
midnight. Mama Kibibi Ajanku of Sankofa Center for Cultural Enrichment
will be enriching our stage again this year with her presence as master
of ceremonies during the open mic and performer portion of the evening.
Admission to this is $10 for the whole evening. Bargain!</div>
<div>If your group is interested in performing on stage during the
open mic portion 6:00pm-8:00pm (there are 12 minute time slots for
performances) please E-mail <a href="mailto:tammi_waffle@yahoo.com">tammi_waffle@yahoo.com</a>
with your group’s information/description/what you stand for, and cc
Mark Cello at mchello@ bellatlantic.net for your sound needs for your
portion. We will work out a schedule and mail it out to those
interested.</div>
<div>How is the Rhythm Gathering different from and the same as the
Rhythm Festival?</div>
<div>1. There will not be a street festival with the street closing.
The gathering will happen on the “lawn/parking area” of the church
during the day and inside the church (workshops).</div>
<div>2. There will not be an outdoor stage during the day, but the
drum circle will take place all day outside on the lawn/parking area.
There will be some food vendors and a few marketplace vendors.</div>
<div>3. The evening concert will have 2 parts: a “planned” community
open Mic and scheduled performers. Would you like to be on stage?
Please contact us!</div>
<div>4. There will be the usual ROCKIN drum circle after the
performance, the usual until midnight!</div>
