Can You Dance?

edited June 2007 in Not Sports Related
Went to Medders' wedding reception on Friday and met up with a few faces from here (clique blah blah). Obviously the time came when we had to chuck some shapes and I always feel awkward dancing to stuff I don't usually go for. Gave it go anyway and looked like a prize plonker but have given up attempting to come away from these things with credit and try to have laugh instead.

The question is what are your moves?

Mine is a kind shouldery wiggle with an off balance foot shimmy. Think of the video to Thriller! Less the talent of course.

    I'm defo in the Dad Dancing category whereas my missus used to be a podium dancer at Cream so normally just watch her as I look like a prize plum when shes going for it
  • I went to a mates 25th wedding anniversary a few weeks back,his wife rang me a few days later with details of dance lessons
  • My dancing makes Mr Bean look like Fred Astaire

    mate, i have the rhythm of an egg! worst dancer of em all! I cant even sway to music without cocking it up!

    I hate dancing because of it, i dont/wont/shouldnt/couldnt dance. When/if i ever get hitched to the ginger one, we will have to make a Ross and Monica style routine to avoid people coating me for looking like the iron giant on ecstasy!
  • MCS brilliant mate

    I decided I was not pulling it off when CAFCbourne looked at me and pissed himself!! The DJ could have been better though.....
  • I don't mind dancing when there is a girl with me and they is actually something to concentrate on to dance to.

    If i was on my own i would try to hard to listen to the music and make a tit of myself.

    If out with the lads then dancing like an absolute fool seems to be the norm.

    Ha ha - I did the slow dance (a kind of partner toe treading come where do I put my hands spinning thing) and then someone called for "The Lady in Red" to be put on - exit Sco pronto!

  • You gotta pick the right tune to dance to. Anything that allows you to wobble your body slowly is suitable. Anything too fast and you'll find your mates having to get a crane to lift you off the floor.
  • Never seen you looking so lovely as you did tonight...............

    Haha quality Sco!!
  • MC Hammers can't touch this... no one can touch me.

    As soon as i hear that 'dah dah dah' i drop what ever i have and hit the dance floor. I have been known to dance on my own on the dancefloor to that while everyone looks into their drinks a little embaressed for me. Shame I was away on Friday as you'd have felt quite good about your dancing, as my routine is like the 'praise you' video, my mrs would be cringing and trying to tempt be off the dancefloor in the same way you would try to tempt a nervous cat out from under the bed except in my case with peanuts and beer.

    It's much easier to have a laugh than do it properly and look an idiot.
  • As soon as I open my eyes after a heavy session, my first thought is "did I dance?". If I can assure myself that I didnt , then the world seems a happier place. If I did, then I spend the day cringing ...........

    Henry, I've seen that too is it a song lyric ?

    Dan, I know exactly what you mean, the missus is a professional dancer, West end shows and stuff - she now teaches Tap, Jazz, Modern and Ballet whilst the seventeen year old daughter is at College doing a musical theatre degree.

    I just don't do it !!!!

    People like you and me are just not made for dancing far too big. Dancing is for lady boys

    I do recall finishing the night dancing to the prodigy, and wondering how on earth to dance when wearing heels and a dress. thankfully there weren't so many people there then, and those left, were drunk.

    Not sure about lady boys but nature has dealt us a difficult hand dancing wise.

    My son kept winning a CD at the school discos for being the best boy dancer. Standing behind all the 11 year old girls dressed up to look 16 (scary - glad I don't have a daughter!), keeping his head down and watching his moves.

    Now he gets too self-conscious about it cos his mates don't dance. Tried to tell him to keep up the dancing as it would come in handy when he was 14/15. "why, Dad?" " It just will, son, OK"

    Isn't that one of the lines WSS uses as he offers to escort one of the bridesmaids back to her room? ;-)

    Don't think so. It was in some hippie-ish clothes brochure that came in the post.

    My daughters current Beau, is also a dancer she met at College. Nice lad, about 6' 4" fit as a butchers dog and definitely straight in a world very much dominated by by young gay men. He was telling me that he felt the same when younger, was bullied at school etc and discovered at about 14/15 years old that whilst the "hard lads" would get home from school and hang about outside the shops, or go to footie training with lots of other "hard lads" he would go to his dance classes and hang around for a couple of hours with fifteen or so of the fittest girls in town.

    Needless to say he loved it and by the by has just won the role of Danny in Grease in the West End.
  • Love dancing me, gutted I missed Medders do. Anyone who knows me will tell you I love to bust a groove, think my record for dancing without a break is around six hours...yes not even a loo break.

    I've never seen someones feet move so rapid!!

    Me i'm the 2 stomp switch foot with a nodding thrown in as well!! or useless as most would put it!!
  • Love it.

    Can't dance to save my life, but love it.

    Regularly the first nob head on the dance floor but don't care if i've had a drink and having fun.

    Parties are like life. You either stand on the sidelines and watch everyone else getting on with it, or you throw yourself right into it and make a tit of yourself.

    And i am that tit :-)
  • I remember the dancing competition up in Ayr with the CIFC lot.

    Quinney won it hands down with his David Pleat impression ...
