Oh, you are such a gentleman, Ben.

 

 

It's not a party until there's a zoot suit!

 

 

I'll gladly help you out with dancing with all these ladies Ben.  I could even take a moment and teach you all some swing dancing.  I used to teach and compete in dancing competitions.

Great suit, and a great color! Swing dancing sounds fun, but I'm old. Can we start with something slow?

 

 

I actually really like that song. I love the initial riff, and I really like the part where it changes at about the 2 minute mark. The Grateful Dead must have liked it too, because they stole it for Terrapin Station.

Aw, shucks, Ma'am.

So, anyone feel like going a bit older style? Virginia Reel perhaps?

You'll have to demonstrate, Dar'Jen.  I don't know the Virginia Reel....

 

Kukaso and I can do a two-hand Irish jig if you all would like.  :D

We used to do the Virginia Reel in elementary school. I was terrible at it!

One of my favorite dances from years of Civil War Reenacting.

 

As long as I get twirled around, I'm willing to try any dance.

Teach it to us!

Shouldn't it have been a dancing polar bear, then?

I didn't know you guys did ceilidh dancing in the states!

 

Right let's go dancing but make sure everyone is in flat shoes or you'll break an ankle

Her nickname was GoddessBlue. She even had your initials :D

The dancing bear is so cute.

It's a Grateful Dead bear.

Somehow I never expected dapper and trash to ever be used in the same sentence.

Here is a reel!

 

Nice! That was a fun dance!

Thanks for coming!
