I think this whole argument has gone on too long and is now completely
undirected. I think the original comment was made by someone that if you
drop in a great track with a great mix and nobody dances you might be a
upset. Then it descended into a long debate about if you should dance to
dance music. "Dance music" is a phrase that can refer to *a lot* of
different types of music. Personally what some people would consider
their dance music I would consider [EMAIL PROTECTED] and I certainly wouldn't dance
to it.
I think the original comment was a fair one, after all if nobody danced
in a night club and instead stood watching the DJ it wouldn't be much
fun (you may as well watch a live feed on groovetech). However, people
are completely entitled to react in whatever way they feel appropriate,
as long as it doesn't involve their elbows digging in my ribs ;)
I think the result of this long debate will eventually be something
particularly insightful like, everyone must accept people like different
things. Some people like dancing and some don't.

I realise there is a term "dance music", used by general consensus
for music played in clubs/bars/... for people to dance to. Fine.
I don't have any problems with that. The argument was rather about
*having* to dance to dance music whether you actually like to dance
or not. And my point is that call it what you like, you don't *have*
to dance to it - in which case for *you* it's *not* dance music.
i think this whole argument, that you have to dance to dancemusic is
crap, why?
just because you listen to jimi hendrix, doesn't mean you're made of
stone... or, do you have to smell funky, when you're into
parliament/funkadelic?
