SwingOrama Forum: Events: Old stuff: Meeshi's swing mixer - Sat April 29

Hi all
I'm new to the dance scene, but I've been reading swingorama for a while and really enjoy the music. I'm thinking of trying out the swing mixer on Saturday, however, I'd be coming alone!!
Female only....pretty scarey for me. Anyone want to buddy up with me, and not make it so scarey?
I could meet you prior to the dance. I'm going to go to the beginners class at 8:15.
Appreciate any feedback. Thanks Everyone
Deborah

Hi Deborah,
I'd like to offer my services. I've been dancing for about 5 months now, but did the whole, female turning up alone thing, and yes it is scary. Everybody I've met has been really, really freindly, but it's still a daunting proposition in the beginning. I've *just* started learning how to lead (the guy's part), so I could do the lesson too. Do you want to meet in front of the dance studio beforehand?
E-mail me at NatalieR@actionio.com and we can sort something out :-)

Is Meeshi really calling it a "Swing Mixer?"

By Ron on Monday, April 24, 2000 - 01:04 pm: Edit

Yeah, but don't get your hopes up, you aren't invited.

By Reuben Brown on Monday, April 24, 2000 - 01:28 pm: Edit

I wouldn't have gone anyway.

This is just further proof the guy is gay.

Maybe this will be his coming out party... finally.

It makes perfect sense, he is too nice to be straight.

Aside from obnoxious comments on our bbs, we're a pretty nice group of people and are happy to welcome newcomers. We try really hard to make people feel at home. That's not to say you shouldn't meet up with people first, but don't feel too uptight about coming by yourself!

By Laurel Nishida on Tuesday, April 25, 2000 - 12:06 pm: Edit

Meeshi seems like a flaming heterosexual to me. He's just in keen touch with his feminine side. All of you guys should try it too - I bet you'd like it. Hmm, I should try it too. I just wanna shake my ass like Meeshi...

By Arthur on Tuesday, April 25, 2000 - 12:20 pm: Edit

I've tried it - and I like it! Shake those hips! I was told that I moved my skirt very well although I did make "one ugly b*tch!" =)

By Natalie Roy on Tuesday, April 25, 2000 - 01:08 pm: Edit

I'm afraid I take Laurel's point of view on this one, especially the booty shaking. Maybe that's why more girls then guys are coming into the scene!

By Twirly on Tuesday, April 25, 2000 - 01:32 pm: Edit

Arthur, honey, I thought you looked adooooorable in that outfit - very tasty! ;)

By Arthur on Tuesday, April 25, 2000 - 02:09 pm: Edit

Thank you, Twirly dear.

By Natalie Roy on Tuesday, April 25, 2000 - 02:20 pm: Edit

I think it was, the moves, more than the outfit, that caught most peoples attention, c.f. my comments at the Yehoodi meal

By Laurel Nishida on Tuesday, April 25, 2000 - 04:36 pm: Edit

Arthur and Twirly, take it outside - you're making me vomit! I personally thought Arthur looked like Carol Channing.

By Twirly on Tuesday, April 25, 2000 - 04:47 pm: Edit

Oh, go eat some chocolate! :)

By Arthur on Tuesday, April 25, 2000 - 04:48 pm: Edit

Don't be jealous. =) And another thing - could Carol Channing move her hips like mine? I think not! ^_^

By HopMichael on Tuesday, April 25, 2000 - 06:48 pm: Edit

Arrgh! Now PDA on the internet!!

By Laurel Nishida on Wednesday, April 26, 2000 - 01:08 pm: Edit

Okay, any excuse to eat chocolate! I'll try to keep from hurling it - hee hee. You know I love you guys.

By Ron on Wednesday, April 26, 2000 - 02:23 pm: Edit

Arthur, now that he's dating a San-Diegan, becomes a virtual San Diegan by becomming a regular poster on our forum...

By Arthur on Wednesday, April 26, 2000 - 02:26 pm: Edit

and...? ;)

By Ron on Wednesday, April 26, 2000 - 02:45 pm: Edit

... and welcome, PDAs and all!

By Arthur on Wednesday, April 26, 2000 - 02:52 pm: Edit

Why... thank you! Thank you very much! (in an Elvis-type voice)
^_^

I'd like to thank my manager, my parents, and all the little people I stepped on to get here. =)

By Natalie Roy on Wednesday, April 26, 2000 - 04:50 pm: Edit

Can someone enlighted a somewhat dense Nat as to what a PDA might be?

By James Moore on Wednesday, April 26, 2000 - 05:01 pm: Edit

Public Display of Affection

By Arthur on Wednesday, April 26, 2000 - 05:04 pm: Edit

Oh, it doesn't mean "Personal Digital Assistant"?

=)

BTW, welcome Deborah! Save me a dance when I'm actually in town! ;)

By HopMichael on Wednesday, April 26, 2000 - 05:13 pm: Edit

Yes, welcome Deborah! If you want to meet some of the usual suspects on these boards, check out the Firehouse on Thursdays in Hillcrest. I think you'll find it a friendly and welcoming place!

By Reuben Brown on Wednesday, April 26, 2000 - 07:00 pm: Edit

Oh yeah, that's another thing... I like Meeshi's city choice for holding a swing venue. The proof is all over the place! hee, hee.

By Natalie Roy on Thursday, April 27, 2000 - 08:23 am: Edit

Thank's James

By Andy on Thursday, April 27, 2000 - 12:15 pm: Edit

Rueben... you seem a little infatuated with Meeshi as of late. A little harmless flirtation, perhaps? finally coming out of the closet? homelife not so fullfilling?

ps Hillcrest is not a town or city, it's an area. plus, we can give you tips on where to go when you finally come out of the closet. ~8^)

By Reuben Brown on Thursday, April 27, 2000 - 01:37 pm: Edit

Dude... I've been out of the closet for a long time, what are you talking about? I'm so infatuated with Meeshi because as soon as he comes out too, I'm going to ask him out.

By Arthur on Tuesday, May 02, 2000 - 02:44 pm: Edit

How was it anyway?

OK. Lots of beginners, which is a good thing, really. There was ice-cream and cookies.
