Welcome to Cal Raijin Taiko, the Japanese drumming group at the University of California, Berkeley
Hello there!
Fall semester is just a FEW DAYS away and that means the start of a new school year and with that - a new batch of taiko players! Yay!
Cal Raijin Taiko will be holding tryouts starting the first week of September and will progress throughout the month. The first
day of tryouts will be...
Tuesday, September 2nd, 2008
6:30-9:00PM
on Upper Sproul
Please dress in comfortable clothes in which you can move around well, preferrably along with some sort of tennis shoe or sturdy footwear - no flipflops.
Taiko can be quite a workout so you may want to bring a bottle of water. Come out to the first day for more information about the following practices
and the tryout process [plus its so fun and there's so much to learn!]. We'll provide the equipment for tryouts, so all you have to do is dress accordingly
and show up! Practice starts exactly at 6:30 so be on time or early! (that means no berkeley time for taiko). Check back for more updates!
In the mean time, we'll be tabling on Thursday so drop by and say hi! Come see our Calapalooza performance on Thursday night, 8:15pm on Upper Sproul!
And just as a reminder, we are at taiko[dot]berkeley[dot]edu
