I really wish I could have attended the inaugual International Lindy Hop Championships this past weekend. Alas family stuff kept me away, so I’ve been eagerly awaiting results, reports, and videos. By all accounts I’ve heard, thus far, it was a huge success. Congrats to the organizers and everyone who competed.

Of the early vids that I’ve seen so far, here’s my favorite:

Dax & Alice have a very relaxed and musical style that I like a lot. Everything they do just flows easy-breezey into the next motion. Routines that have “cool moves” are pretty common, but this routine actually has cool movement, which seems much harder to find these days for some reason.





farewell olympic games…

…until we meet again in Vancouver. It was tremendous fun watching you, but geez, what the heck am I going to watch until 2010?

hmmm…….

I don’t really think his nickname is The Black Night, but the Monty Python fan in me wants it to be so bad. His real nickname is probably something like Kyle “The Guy Who Used to Beat Up Monty Python Fans in High School” Maynard.
