The Politics of Dancing

OMG Nat & I had a great time last Thursday night at The Speakeasy.
In fact, when we got there; the place was about full but everyone was just swaying to the music and getting social with their drink on. OK, here’s the Blow.. Nat & I Cracked that dance floor wide open.. Yes Modesto Famous, We actually danced there, not grinned & nor did we ever do the Bump. LOL. It was all about freestyle dancing with some good Retro Beats.

Nat & I don’t go out dancing much just because we don’t move to RAP and we are all about the 80’s Retro.. Just like my Station.. www.thequakedj.net Anyway, the last time we went dancing was back in November and it was in the city of SF..
We Could Have Danced All Night Long!!!!!!!
Nat & I aren’t shy, we jumped on the open dance floor & others fallowed.. DJ CHOPSTIQS greeted us with an 80's Euro Set and I ate it up.. No wait, I macked it up.. In fact, the floor went clear for a moment and I could tell, many of the Speakeasy patrons weren’t accustom to seeing 2 people actually dance without being sexual at it. LOL Friends, their is an art to dancing.. I guess some of us forgot it in all that backing things up and booty grinding. LOL In reference, I think it’s also known as “The Politics of Dancing" “The Politics of oooo Feeling Good"
OK so The Speakeasy..
The atmosphere was awesome and we got loads of friendly smiles.
One of the nicest compliments came from a young gal who said, “Hi Five to you both" I love the way you guys dance, you defiantly are showing us up. LOL TBTG I feel great and I could have danced all night long..
PS New Order is King!
I love Modesto
Solid!

Sounds and looks like ..

Looks like a blast! Does Speakeasy typically do a "retro 80s" thing on Thursday or was that just a random thing?
I have been looking for decent place to have a drink and hang out that plays tunes I like, and I love 80s new wave & europop. (And, yes, NO rocks in large amounts! )

Full Circle

Like in waves bro, this replays itself like the music scene does.. It happens every Thursday night. Although, you may want to get there early like at 10:30:PM By 11:15 there is a line curving around the block and the patrons have to wait till some Speakeasy goers move on to get in.. It’s way positive and about the best place to hangout on a Thursday night.
If ya have a chance, pick up the July Issue of The Modesto View.. I did a piece on it and the positive vibe they are serving over there.

Wings of love

Tomorrow, I will be spreading my wings of LOVE & heading to Bacchus. DJ Honey B is a great gal & she is all about the one love. Me too! It’s Reggie, its on & I’m just wanting to escape myself from mental slavery… Don’t ya know, none but ourselves can free our minds..
According to the late Mr. Bob Marley Me, I’m cool with that..
One Love, & why not..

Well, just got home from lifting all day at the gym, going to hit my home gym here and spin for an hour.. Spin Bike that is,.. I just put up a mirror ball up in there & I’m dying to spin in the cover of darkness with my beats on and the ball a-turning.. Who knows, it just might make me feel like I'm actually going somewhere with all those little lights moving all around me.. LOL
