Okay, this is a little old in the threadmill...but I
wanted to comment on a few things about the Bardot
a-go-go at LAX this past Saturday.
Was it just me and my companions who thought the
carpeted floor was odd for dancing? No talc on that
"dancefloor," for sure! That, in addition to the
narrow dance area just made for a limited dancing
experience. Why wasn't the "lower lever" (ie, the
part where the one could go right up to the cool
slanted windows) used? The place just wasn't used to
its fullest capacity.
About the music...I thought there was an interesting
selection. There was some great songs being spun, but
some transitions between songs were too abrupt. The
sometimes odd juxtapositions of a classic '60s era
French gem with some bland contempo electronic Frenchy
pop was too much of a contrast. Don't get me wrong.
Contrast is good. When it's done right, it can keep
dancers on their toes, so to speak. But I think the
pairing of songs seemed quite random that particular
night.
The crowd and the clothes: I think whoever said that
some of the girls looked like they got their outfits
from a day-after-Halloween-markoff sale was right on.
More plastic '60s( 'a la Austin Powers) rather than
stylish clothes. Many of the guys, though not as
flamboyantly dressed as some of these ladies, were no
better than the ladies because they were quite
under-dressed. Perhaps this has something to do with
the much older crowd there???
all best,
