I've always been a dancer, its part of the thrills of young.........well, you know. In the early days of Yate I used to manage to hop off the stage and have a dance to my own tunes (well, numbers were a bit on the low side and Kojak gave me a bonus! LOL). Even today, I couldn't imagine djing and not having a dance during someone else's spot, its not natural.....

this is something that i have noticed for many years.

you very rarely see a big name DJ on the dancefloor.

would the music being played be more dancefloor friendly if the DJ's were dancers too?

i am only being light-hearted here so i dont expect any logical answers :)

Shane

Easy most of them can't dance, well hardly be described as dancing, its like saying who would be a goalkeeper.? usually because they can't play outfield.

There is also the elitist few, who don't want to mix the masses, but leaving them to one side, the majority can't dance, these are often seen at the end of the nite, shuffling around totaly pissed.I seem to remember Frank (dewhurst) used to dance during his DJ sessions and he was not bad, but he was/is the exception.

DJ = UNCO-ORDINATED.!

Lets hope we dont see the Bicknell stairs shuffle tonight;) and Mark will you have PTSD from the last time you visited Middleton ??

In the circumstances and not to make light of this i'm working Sunday and will not be attending Middleton, i did give it a mention or two on my Solar show over the past couple of weeks and i really hope it's a huge night as i'm sure it will be, good promotions such as this deserve to be a success.

I dont want to embaress the man but I saw Dave Thorley dance in the modern room at the Nurenberg weekender and he was brilliant....that guy can move...it was the first time I`d seen Dave dance ever!

Chris

Dave used to dance loads.. he needs a lot of room, wild arms and legs! Not seen him for years though so couldn't comment about recent times.

I had him dancing around in my living room on christmas. That was some kind of frightening! Because it's a small one with my records in. :)

Saw him in Nuremberg too, he's still a pretty good dancer.

Hi Shane.I only DJ .I am hopeless at dancing.I may be alone in this answer.I "think" I play a good dance tempo for those who are confident on the floor ,as a lesser known DJ.Logic ,to me = good ? :lol:wink.gif ,

Keb Darge is one hell of a dancer! I'm 30 something years younger and would kill myself if I tried flinging my limbs around like that, all inverted and shit!

I been known to dash out the booth to dance to my own records from time to time..all depends on how many of them free drinks I got in me.

Well if Shane and Joan had gone to Groovy Grooves last night they would have both been satisfied by seeing Mr Hennigan do that turbo shuffle of his all over the dance floor (well in one corner for half a record but I think this does constitute a top DJ dancing).

Keb was a tikwando (sp?) champion I think, which is why he's really good at the twirly stuff.

Keb is simply superb :D Haven't seen it for years but he is on a video from I think one of the old Yarmouth weekenders dancing to the Temptations - Come On Back To Me Baby, superb display :yes:

Does Butch have a dodgy knee? :D

Back in the bad old days of the 80's at Bilston All Nighter (ex-mining village to cross reference to the political topic I am going nowhere near :yes::D ) Butch danced to about 3 records in a row during my spot, which made me feel great as it was one of my first main spots to a non-local crowd,

I was feeling fairly chuffed until Butch went on after me (for one of his first big allnighter spots I would suggest) and proceeded to deflate me totally as I listened to his choice of music and realised my 60 minutes paled into insignificance!!

General point is in the 80's most dj's danced, Guy H is one of the best and most co-ordinated dancers around, surely no coincidence that before and after these days, when the scene is much bigger very few dj's dance, Would suggest that may be a lot to the self perception of many of these djs!

Cheers

Jock

Collectors / Punters who come from the dancefloor make the better dj's anyway in my opinion! If you like a dance yourself - then you know what makes others want to dance too! :ohmy:

It looks like most of the djs dance at sometime then...The thread would have been better with what djs have never danced...I think even Stevie Z must have seen the dancefloor in his youth....The punters like to see dj dance and join in..Keith Money can do the lot,play tunes dance and drink the bar dry whistling.gif ..Beat that...

Keb's dancing was incredible - I remember seeing him dance to "Job Opening" once and he was like a fireworks display on ankles - your eyes simply couldn't keep up with all the moves.

It wasn't just the acrobatics he was good at either - all that martial arts practise had given him amazing balance and precision, so every little move was spot on - an absolute joy to watch.

I say 'was' only because with all his Funk stuff keeping him busy I haven't seen him dance for years - I imagine he could still do it today, but I never see him on the dancefloor - shame.

All the best,

Nick
