We shuffled a little
closer to the stage past some really tall fellows. They laughed at us shorties
saying as long as we did not block their view they were happy to make room for
us.
Then two men only about 5ft6 to 5ft8 shuffled to right in front of us.
I am 5ft2 or there
about and so was the MeetUp gal. The men did not speak to us or even to each
other but after they stopped moving and looked around they silently shuffled to
be behind us instead of blocking our view from the front.
Finally the band
came out and the crowd went wild. As predicted as soon as music started the
crowd, with us in it, moved. We swayed to and fro. It was almost hypnotic and a
little stifling. Then there was jumping and wiggling.
I would not have known what I was missing from way back
in the corner of the establishment.
People did not seem to mind my sweater. It
was after all, soft to the touch.
At the end of the night as the crowd dissipated
I started looking for my buddy so I could at least say goodbye to her as well
as make sure she got out of the grip of the conga guy who had grabbed her
around the waist.
I found her quickly
as people thinned out. I happened to glance down and see someone had lost a
shoe in all the melee. I thought this was funny.
Looking up I looked around and
a guy was hobbling on one foot saying he had lost his shoe. I thought oh great
looks like he’ll get it back quick.
Then I looked at the foot he was standing
on and back at the shoe near me. They were not a match. I thought this was hilarious!
I had not seen any
other shoes and I kept walking. I came home on a high and with a small crush on
the bands lead singer. What am I a teenager all over?
Current day television viewers
seem to think that Dancing With the Stars is all the rage. My women counter parts want to try
and get their significant others to take dance classes.
There are even some singles
groups that host adult dance events. None of that interests me. I like music
and I even have rhythm there is just something about these tame events that
just did never seemed grab me.
Get in the pit and try to love someone...Kid Rock
