![]() But seriously, some pop tracks are to a waltz-ish beat, aren't they? I vaguely recall something - was it Samantha Mumba's "Body to Body"? Certainly, "ashes to ashes" sounds waltz-y to my untrained ear... So you could argue that waltzing to those types of track is more in line with the music than MJ-ing to them... ![]()

Don't know it it's any use to the Nosequins crowd and others -- if you're interested in a MJ dance where you might be able to dance some non-MJ dances -- there's a 1940's dance at Greenham Common on July 2nd that's likely to be rather good (from previous experience). Drop me a PM if you're interested in details. SpinDr. |

Rep Power: 2 Rep.: 15 | Re: Non-MJ dancers at MJ venues? There are, or have been, pop songs to waltz beats - I was listening to somethign by OMD the other day and realised it was a fast waltz - Viennese rather than modern, and another track by a local blues band the same. I've done ballroom at ceroc dances - space depending of course, and we often have mixed dances here - the stationary dancers head to the middle (mj, lh, rnr mostly) and leave the outside track for the ballroomers. It has worked on very small dancefloors - maybe 10m per side - but it does require some discipline - mainly for people to realise that the dance floor is CROWDED and they should NOT get up to make it even more so!! |
