SwingDJs

I've never had any nightmares about DJing or dancing. I've had a couple of good dreams about dancing, though.

Don't know what that means.

I doubt that exposing a scene to better dancers for a weekend makes for better local dancers - unless it's partnered with instruction. I think many scenes are having exchanges because it's cool or it's fun or it's expected of them. Kalman I would slightly disagree. There are many occasions when new...

I was going to say something really snarky, but I won't. Dress up for Y6A, though. Kalman You just couldn't help yourself, could you? :) FWIW, I'm really starting to feel like a broken record in this debate.

Good luck and congrats Jerry!

I agree, very good idea, but I've never done it before. When I've talked to organizers I've usually just passed along email/phone info and done it that way.

Tina

Awesome stuff. I'll finally get to hear Westen perform!!

Tina

Remember K, it's all done in love.
