When I was little I used to dance all the time.

Billy Idol, Basia, The Beatles, Paula Abdul, Natural Estates

I don't think that I was under the impression that I was a particularly excellent dancer, rather it's more probable that I never thought about it. As a kid I understood something better than I do now.

Dancing is for dancing.


Despite my admiration for professional performers, I refuse to surrender my claim to the titles of artist, musician or dancer. You perfect petit allegro while I do the twist and in the end I think we'll both end up alright.

Some of you reading this might be under the impression that since I would be considered an "amateur", any skills I possess are long due for some serious critiquing and therefore not worthy of anyone's time. Well, sir, to you I say "okay". Cause you're not really who I'm dancing for, are you?
