compltely, utterly and wonderfully amazing - all of these dancers just make me so envious - incredible musicality, inspiring interpretations in physicality - these aren't moves, or patterns, this is just incredible. I couldn't be there this year, but I really hope to be at BluesSHOUT 2011
Yes, this is what I am talking about! I have long contended that the Blues was originally a dance music. But I didn't have any idea that this was going on. I didn't see any of this down in Memphis, I was down there for this year's IBCs. There were 111 bands down there that could have provided music for a troupe of these dancers. And I only saw one couple demonstrate what I see here. This is hot! Damn!
Yes! Blues music was party music... Dancing to it was disappearing. [ I was a BlueShout 2009 and was in the minority as a middle-age Black man... now any that a reversal considering the origins of the music. I did learn somethings! ]
I'm not even joking when I say I got chills watching this again. Every single one of you gave a fantastic performance and the crowd was right there with you in energy. Watching you all dance this weekend is starting to change my mind about contests :-)
Thanks a lot Christ0
