here? Come on. I’m here. We don’t need anybody else now that I’m here. But who pays attention to me anyway? You wouldn’t expect to see 500 people marching up Fifth Avenue drumming, singing and dancing, would you? Not without a permit. And an argument made at the scene to the police — that this was impromptu and it just happened that all these people showed up so who is it that would sign a permit application — really is besides the point. A thousand people (cutting the difference in half) is a thousand people. And if they make a lot of noise or block access, that’s it. That Monday, the cars for the drummers and their friends completely filled the 200-car lot at Sagg Main and then spilled over onto Sagg Main Street for a half a mile and completely down and around the dead-end road of Sandune Court. Had emergency vehicles been needed to get through they would have not been able to, according to the fire marshal, who also showed up. And so that was that. The police tried to be nice about it. It was nice they let it go on for as long as they did. But what could you do. Here’s a thought. On earlier evenings at Sagg Main, I bet there were as many as 300 people out on the beach enjoying perhaps 10 different activities. Should no more than 50 be allowed without a permit? No. It’s no more than 50 in any one group. There could be six permits for the beach, each for a different crowd of 50. So others can have fun, too. Personally, I love fun. And I think that what
UPDATE This past Monday, August 11, the drummers were back, and so were the police. The police helped the people park, and when the lot was full, politely turned the rest away. They were a big help, the police. And they did the right thing. Want to go August 18? Get there early.

ought to be done is that this whole lot of drumming should be divided up into groups of up to 49 people. Sagg Main is just one among hundreds of beaches up and down the Hamptons. Going east from Sagg Main is Fowler’s Beach, then Peter’s Pond Beach, then Town Line Beach, then Beach Lane Beach in Wainscott, and so forth and so on. To the west we have Sagg Inlet West Beach, then Ocean Road Beach, then Mecox Beach, then Cameron Beach, and so forth and so on. What everybody should do on a Monday night at 5:30 p.m. is assemble at the Bridgehampton High School parking lot. There should be wooden poles with the names of the beaches within 10 miles in each direction on them, and people should assemble, up to the required 49, under each of the signs, and then they should all head off to those beaches. Before summer is out, we could have 2,000 people at 40 different beaches, all with torches and drums and beer and bonfire makers, and at most 49 to a beach and boy, could this place rock. Legally. I’d come. And I do believe, God would • hear us.
