Who can dance?


Not exactly a tech topic but dancing is an important aspect of music for a lot of people......including my wife.

Sadly, in our 30+ years of marriage I have never been what you’d call a dancer. Danced some in college for obvious reasons and with the necessary inhibition suppressor.

My wife likes to shag. And for those of you from across the pond it is not what you think......the shag is a type of dance that originated on the U.S. east coast and is associated with beach music bands. It is in the standard dance inventory across most of the south.

Well, as a joke one day I told my wife I’d learn the shag if she gave me the nod to get a drum kit. Well, I got a drum kit and I’m learning.......slowly........to dance to beach music. The shag also works for most R&B and even swing music.

Any of the rest of you music lovers know how to or enjoy dancing?

I’m the living model of two left feet. And last weekend we were dancing and I was pathetic and started laughing because all I could think about was Dr. Frankenstein’s monster in Young Frankenstein........Puttin’ on the Ritz!

Good for you N80 but I guess you had to hold up your end of the bargain!

Some great vids shared thx all.

3 left feet here but still used to give it a whirl in my younger days.

One just HAD to go to the disco and get out and make moves if you wanted any chance of going home not solo!
Yep, sordid motives but what can you expect from 18 year old Brits!

Thank Christ YouTube did not exist back then is all I can say or you lot would be howling in laughter!
"My wife likes to shag. And for those of you from across the pond it is not what you think....."
Seems like a complaint with some sadness. At first, at least.

Otherwise, if you have two left feet, then I have two left legs. Wooden, of course.
