Dancing

Hi Everyone,

I was wondering if anyone out there is in to Dance - I AM A HUGH FAN. 

Since i was five, i have been going to ballet, disco, jazz and musical threatre dance lessons and loved it. Also, i have been to many venues - Royal Albert Hall, Butlins, Pontins, Blackpool (all in UK) and Disneyland Paris (France, obs). 

Also, what do you like about dance? i like it because it gives me freedom to be who i want to be and not worry about being different.

So, what lessons do you do? Have you been to any famous venues to dance with your dance school? 

Let Me Know!

  • Hi Mistress Belle,

    I gather Mike Oldfield had you dancing, it's just one of those tunes. It must be 1976 I started infants school and I know often at school assembley Mike Oldfield's In Dulci Jubilo and Portsmouth tracks were sometimes playeed, they stuck in my head, tho I'd never heard of Mike Oldfield, until he remade the Blue Peter theme (tho I used to watch Tiswas too), then he released Moonlight Shadow , and I thought "That's the Tubular Bells dude". Oh yes everyone had an LP of Tubular Bells in the 70's, it wasn't really until later on I discovered more of Mike Oldfield Tubular Bells, Hergest Ridge and Ommadawn are what I consider the Holy Trinity of MO albums, I do like some of his more recent releases , the Songs Of Distant Earth Voyager , and also Music Of The Spheres his classical album.
    I knopw maybe headbanging doesn't count as dancing as such, but it's moving your head rythmically to Heavy Rock or Metal, check out Judas Priest (that's one band I'd lie to see live) Check out  live videos on youtube. I tell a lie there I haven't seen Queen, well I've seen 3/4 of Queen, tho I haven't seen Queen with the Late Great Freddie Mercury, tho I was there for his TributeConcert!!! I was 15 when Queen played Wembley and Knebworth in '86 and wasn't allowed to go .
    A look through my music collection may reveal a few surprises, I love Rock, Metal , Blues, to Prog, Glam some Phsychedelia and Classical, Tho I do like the Electronica of Gary Numan, and also Kraftwerk I love how Autobahn soars and soars!!! I do have some folk and Reggae. About the only music I really cannot stand is Country/Country & Western, and Leonard Cohen (so morbid) . Tho Johnny Cash was Country tho the ukulele group play Ring Of Fire and Folsom Prison Blues, so enjoy those songs, tho I think so many of the bands artists mentioned don't strictly fall into one category of music.
