I have to ask...when I watch old clips from the 50's the jives look so different, even the different couples on the floor are doing different moves and variations..... every one of these that I have watched have been the same moves/steps done very well but there all the same.... every single one!! What happened to the jive???
@MsKathleen2009 Hello Kathleen, The styles of jive have evolved and changed a lot over the years. If you are watching genuine old clips of jive, then they would have been doing the jitterbug, lindyhop and swing jive. Those were the original jive styles from America, and still done today but much more on the current 1940s scene. There is also the modern French jive, but people on that scene jive to modern music and are very rarely into the whole 50's lifestyle. Thanks
does any one know the name of the little blonde in the front in the black dress and red petty coat i danced with her at southport and not seen her for a while and would love to get in touch
@Chris62007 This brilliant weekender is on twice a year every year, so please do make an effort. Each Hemsby weekender is numbered we have just had Hemsby 44 in May 2010. It gets a lot cheaper the more people you can share your chalet with. You can either eat in and around the camp, or go self catering to save money.
@PonytailRuth Thanks for filming this, I am so proud to be Salv's Mum and he had only had less than 10 lessons from Kav then too as he is a natural rockabilly! Next time he may enter with his girlfriend (we all know who!) can't wait to see that!
@RockabillyJenny ,You have every right to be proud of your son Salv. I love to see the youngsters following in our footsteps regarding the love of this shared rock and roll lifestyle. I don't know who the lucky young lady who you mentioned? I was hoping Salv could be my toy boy dance partner for just ONE jive! at the next Hemsby in October..... ha ha x
@rockinbird Cool A few Lessons with Kav paid off then but cool Salv is a natural and next time he is entering with his girlfriend (we all know who!) Tennessee is not girlfriend but good friend -so watch this space! Proud to be his mum!
Well done to you, as this shows how multi talented you really are for a 13 year old lad. You were great, taking lead vocals in the jam session at this brilliant weekender too. Sorry I ran out of video space, as I could not film your winners exhibition dance.
Super vidéo...Bravo....

I saw you dance and can only say CONGRATS ! You seem to be a kind of multitalent.
It was really fun to see all the kids and teenagers at Hemsby, dancing around and having fun. Thats a big difference to the Rockabilly Rave.
