I just got this notice in a myspace bulletin, and I'm sure this will be popular with the nearby Davis Square residents (Union Square is close enough).
Union Square Hoedown
On August 13.from 5-8 pm Union Square Main Streets will be a hosting a square dance on the Union Square Plaza. Caller Dennis McCormack will be providing instruction in Traditional and Modern American Square Dancing and then will lead you through the music.
Show up anytime between 5-8 , lessons will be ongoing and dances will stop and start periodically. No partner no problem. All ages and experiences welcome! The event is free.

When I think of Somerville, I think of Square Dancing.
Edit: People can meet for Square Dancing and then hop on the bus back to the Square for the Burren meetup. Maybe we can have the meetup in traditional square dancing clothes? Hmmmm...I like this idea.

Date: 2008-08-06 03:24 am (UTC)Please no. I don't know if I will ever adjust to the fact that people who -don't- live in remote rural areas will do square dancing. It's something I associate with the farming families I grew up with, and for the love of god I thought I had got away from that world!
I love dancing, but I will not be square dancing.

Date: 2008-08-06 03:37 pm (UTC)I agree with the whole be there for an hour thing. I can only take so much of "My wife left me, and now all I love is my dog and my truck" songs. After all, The Buuren calls.
