I captured this from my balcony, local egyptians having a street party because of a shop opening in Sayeda Zeinab - a local (or baladi, shaabi as they say) area in Cairo. Check the dancing at the end!

    you lived there, wallahe? that is great! which part of it? that is so great! i miss it a lot, and yeag it IS loud like crazy 24/7... i still hear the morning "Bikyaaaa!", hahaha :D

  • I have alot of Egyptian Friends and they DO NOT dance like that! LoL I think that this guys were just very drunk! (that music was so anoying by the way) :D

  • @mimiamor88

    haha, yeah this is not really common, that's true :)

    but osos1991 said it right, the poor communities do have these kind of bizarre "acting" dances - and i don't even think they are drunk...

    the music IS really bad, and i had to listen to it ALL NIGHT there, argh...!
