  • Everything from Fine Arts to Rock and Roll to a string group to movies, dance shows, and many permenant collections in a number of museums. Some to the best venues are Ruth Eckerd Hall, Ice Palace, and the New Ford Ampitheater in Tampa. If you can't find something to do you just are not trying.

    tailgating?

  • One of the best parts of going to a game is the tailgating. In fact, the team web site encourages it. I cooked enough food to choke a pig, loaded my cooler with beer, and brought beach chairs. I envisioned hordes of fans mingling and eating before the game. Sadly, when we pulled into the lot there was nobody tailgating. We tried to start a tradition, and many people looked at our food with envy, but nobody joined in. Very sad indeed

  • St. Petersburg is all about early bird specials - so don't go to dinner at 8pm. You may find the restaurant is all closed up and done for the night.

    Sunday Night Drum Circle

  • Updated By tampa_shawn on August 18, 2008
  • Saint Petersburg Page by tampa_shawn
  • Treasure Island Drum Circle is an absolutely wonderful way to watch the sunset and participate in some local culture.

    It happens every Sunday – starting approximately an hour before sunset till 10 PM

    The event is free and open to everyone….make music, dance, or just listen.
    Drums, Tibetan Chimes & Singing Bowls, Quartz Crystal Singing Bowls, Shakers, Rattles, --- All Sacred Instruments of the Earth are Welcome! Modern drum sets played with sticks don't fit in very well
    . . .
    BRING your hand drums, any percussion instruments, violin, tuba….Blankets & chairs

    Do NOT bring candles, incense, glass bottles or other flammables

    In case of rain the circle will relocate to the pavillion at the park on 104th ave across from Fun Center(about a block east of the regular location)

    From downtown St. Pete, go west on Central Avenue(over fifty cent toll bridge), then, when it dead ends into Gulf Blvd. turn left. Go a couple blocks south of Central Avenue on Gulf Blvd. to 104th Ave. (Public beach parking lot on beach side across from Treasure Island Fun Center,)

    In case of rain the circle will relocate to the pavillion at the park on 104th ave across from Fun Center(about a block east of the regular location)
