Can’t Get Enough???

07.02.10

For those who like to keep up with all the latest dances, I’ll be running an extra class on Saturday 27th February at Canwick Village Hall.  Starting at 7.45pm, I’ll be teaching 2 or 3 new dances over the next three hours with some social dancing and requests in between.  £3.50 pay on the door, but if you are intending coming, please let me know beforehand so we have a rough idea of numbers, either by e mail or by putting your name on the list at the Tuesday class.  If there is anything you are desperate to learn, let me know now!

2009 Dances Taught

03.02.10

Latest dance(s) taught…..

03.02.10 MARTINI MOMENTS (Francien Sittrop) A 64 count intermediate dance with a couple of restarts and a little tag but don’t let these put you off as they soon fall into place and are easy enough to spot from the change in the music.  A nice track too, and a little different from the some of the pop tracks we’ve been dancing to recently - I love the tinkly piano. I think the class really enjoyed this tonight.            http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cEtcwgbWQrY

Lots of dances coming out now from the Crystal Boot Awards last weekend and we’ll be making a start on some of them next week!

Thanks

29.12.09

Thanks to all in the club who donated to charity instead of sending Christmas cards to each other this year. Each box, (one for the St Barnabas hospice and one for Macmillan Cancer Support) had just over £11 pound in. Kate and I made each one up to £25 and sent a cheque off to the respective charities. We’ve had a very nice letter of thanks from the Macmillan for Lincolnshire office.

Songs I quite like No 2.

28.12.09

Haven’t been that keen on previous songs by this artist, but I do like the repetitive nature of the music that accompanies this song. The video has a rather strange start but the song starts properly at 28 seconds in.

Songs I quite like No 1.

27.12.09

Paolo Nutini recorded “Live In Lincoln”. This track 10/10 (ten out of ten) has a distinctly reggae feel. A total contrast to his recent single Pencil Full Of Lead which was another of my favourite tracks from 2009. Wish I had discovered Paolo before he came to play at The Engine Shed in Lincoln!
