Please don't tell me that you were that guy! The tall, blonde-haired guy at the front of the crowd that kept turning around andf saying, "Geez! Why is no one dancing!?" Then turning around and not dancing yourself. I really hope that if you are complaining about people not dancing that you were just tearing it up and cutting a rug.
To tell you the truth, I was busy watching Mills' techniques. Once in a while, a killer track would pop on and i just couldn't help myself but to move my ass like the true rump-shaker that I am, but for the most-part (I hate to dissappoint you, but...) I was watching, admiring, and learning from a true innovator. And, to further add to my list of reasons why people werent moving at the front, it was friggin packed! How could anyone even move, let alone dance! We were shoulder to shoulder. People were tearing it up 10-20 feet back. That's just the way it always is at a packed venue where people want to watch the artist. Too bad people couldn't watch and dance at the same time!

My girlfriend Allison & I were up neard the front around 3:30 when Jeff went on, and we were astounded at the number of people just standing around. I felt as if I was gathered around an accident scene, with everyone leaned in & rubbernecking, pointing cameras, but otherwise giving no indication that there was *music* at the party. After the joint got cleared out, it was obvious that there was a core of people really enjoying the music, but earlier in the evening I was talking with some guy & we decided that we knew why Jeff Mills doesn't play Detroit > too often... > > -P > > > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
