Lincoln Lone Stars

Sorry, there won’t be a class on Tuesday 23rd March. Back as normal on the 30th.

Did the first extra class of the year on Saturday 27th February where I taught 3 new dances –

C U AGAIN (Jonathan Williamson) This dance won the Linedancer magazine choreography competition and I can see why. An upbeat but fairly straightforward 64 counter that received a round of applause! Well worth checking out. Music by Miley Cyrus.

UPSIDE DOWN (Kate Sala and Robbie M Hickie) Although only 48counts, there are lots of “&” counts so plenty to remember. The class found it a little tricky at first but it got a good response. Music by Paloma Faith.

 WISHING ON A STAR (Paul McAdam) Not a very good response to this 32 count offbeat cha-cha. Quite like it myself but only a handful got up when played at the end of the night.  Music by Paul Weller.

Thanks to those who attended, both from my own class and from further afield.

The latest Linedancer Magazine Awards, known as Crystal Boots were announced last night in Blackpool.  The winners are shown below. Well done to all.

Have added a few pictures from our latest skiing trip in Austria – just go to Menu on the left hand side and click on Gallery.

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.

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.
