Not too many surprises in Davie. Cornbread played and Brian called. It was my first visit in six months or so. It was a nice change to have a relatively even balance of men and women at the dance. Davie often has more men than women, and I think it's primarily a function of location; not that it's a sketchy neighborhood, but that it's so far out west away from I-95 and hard to find in the dark if you haven't been there more than a couple of times.
Only a couple of people have read this blog this year, so I'm not sure whether I should continue it. Obviously no one is getting his/her news from here. I suppose I could liven it up a bit by being more snarky and naming names. I have a LOT I could say about certain individuals associated with the dance.
On a more positive note, I'd like to encourage anyone who reads this and is a good dancer to come out to the south Florida dances. And if you know people who are good dancers who have not been coming, encourage them to come to the dances. We have a bunch of good dancers in the area who think the south Florida dances are not very good, so they don't come, and it becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy, it's NOT a very good dance, mainly BECAUSE many of our best dancers don't come.
I have the hall and the band lined up for the April 30th dance, so go ahead and mark it on your calendar.
