Every weekend for nearly 40 years, a huge drum circle has assembled on Hippie Hill in San Francisco's Golden Gate Park. There are always a wide assortment of instruments, people and ages. Families picnic while women in flowy dresses hula hoop beside them and groups of friends kick a hackey-sack around.
I guess on Fridays they relocate to the Conservatory of Flowers

We relocated to the Conservatory of Flowers due to the rise of drunks and deviants at The Hill, which tend to bring chaos to the circle. And in response to 'aliamshala' : I agree that a "traditional" or tribal drum circle should not include anything but purely acoustical instruments; however, with the diversity of The City, we musicians just want to create music (which is the same purpose of a drum circle in the first place). Thanks for sharing with the world 'iamgreg007'!

this is not hippie hill.this is the conservatory of flowers. and as far as the comment of guitars in a drum circle, the old guy playing guitar in this video is limp, maybe a better guitar player would be more well suited

Electric amplified instruments RUIN drum circles...... I guess thats why REAL drum circles set guidlines to this effect.. I have played at the hill many many times in the past 40+ years,,,, And electric battery bs has ruined the vibe which can electro fy the mine body spirit,,, Dont get me wrong,,,, I love the sounds,, But not at a drum circle,,, Be well
