DANCING

When I was younger, I went out a lot. I mean a LOT. I grew up in a small town that had nothing going on as far as a night scene. Luckily, we were about an hour outside of Dallas. Which I wasn't allowed to drive to haha. But I did. I went to clubs and couldn't believe the music and the people and everything that was happening. I went to college in another suburb outside of Dallas, actually pretty far to drive and we still came to Dallas to go out. The clubs in Dallas were incredible. There were so many places to go and we could see (hear) incredible artists from all over the country and world. I'm really lucky in that I had no idea that it WASN'T like this for everyone, everywhere. Even then I loved dancing and letting it all go. Anything that was bad didn't really exist there. I met tons of people and even to this day some of them are in my life. I'm no world-class dancer by any means, but I dance with abandon.

I genuinely don't care if I look like an idiot, I just have to get it out. And I do. Even today, when I go out I just let it go and dance and FEEL that moment. I will have to write more about that past time in my life, as there is tons to write about from back then. I'm lucky there there are still a few places in Dallas that have great music and a totally open environment. I don't think that anyone who hasn't experienced that sort of freedom can truly understand. The Top 40 type of music and dance-floor is fine for some, for me it just doesn't work. Hearing some "DJ" plays songs straight from the radio is boring to me. I live for hearing new, interesting, undiscovered music. Or music that is a revisited classic, something brought to you in a new way. When that beat is on, you can feel it and for just that moment, everything makes sense. Where else can you let go and lose yourself? I promise, I am not on drugs.

Having a good beat to shake my legs... that is a good time. Do yourself a favor and if you live in Dallas, go to:

Anyone who wants to go out with me sometime is more than welcome, but you have to keep up with yourself. Oh, and if you hear of a good music event, LET ME KNOW!!!
