It's fine to stand around and pontificate, just don't do it on the dancefloor! Go to the bar!

They all liked the music, clapped at the end or whatever, but kept perfectly still despite the dance music he was playing. With techno/electro/house I usually think it's the DJs job to get people to dance. I suppose if it's weird chin strokey musique concrete or whatever then it's more acceptable to stand around and have a bit of a shoe gaze (I always try to have a dance anyway, if I like what's being played). Must be a states thing, check out Cylob's "rave photo" page, he also talks about how nobody in the US dances at gig: http://www.cylob.com/rave_photos/ravephotos.html -skkatter On 07/12/05, Kent Williams <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > A party with a bunch of anoraks standing around is a party with no vibe. -- http://www.skkatter.net ##################################################################################### Note: Any views or opinions are solely those of the author and do not necessarily represent those of Channel Four Television Corporation unless specifically stated.
