Swing Dancing in Davis Square?
May. 15th, 2008 06:17 pmI'm a swing dancer (lindy hop, blues, etc) and I say there should be a free, weekly swing dance in Davis Square. Perhaps each Friday afternoon, early evening, or saturday afternoon, or perhaps Sunday morning? All that would be needed is a boombox that can be turned up relatively loudly and a few couples who like to dance.
Perhaps some of us who are more experienced could teach a lesson during the event?

Date: 2008-05-16 11:32 am (UTC)- Swing City (http://swingcityboston.com/index.shtml) between Porter & Inman Square. The Love Dogs are playing tonight
- Boston Swing Central (http://www.bostonswingcoop.org/) in Central Square. The Back Bay Rhythm Makers are playing tonight
- Swing Dance Depot (http://www.swingdancedepot.com/)in Watertown. Roger Ceresi & the Rockin' All-Stars are playing tonight
Admittedly, none of these places are IN Davis, and there is a cover ($10-15 depending on venue & whether you're a student), but for that you get a live band, a decent dance floor (so you can wear proper shoes for spinning), and a roof (very helpful when it's raining).
