The Leading Blog

Town Dancer blog has been the surprise of this year. It is still up ahead of all the rest of our blogs and only with SOS (my blogging.) This may not be the greatest blog in the world but  on Oahu but it is certainly beyond the accepted expectations. And when you think what it could do with a few more information contributors. Wow!

"We did not change as we grew older; we just became more clearly ourselves."

Whatevah, Town Dancer blog is doing very well. And many of the readers aspire to the dance competition style of dance and doing very well in the exhibitions too. They have every right to it. The social dance clubs in town seem to be well saturated and the long standing top five are no longer the top five. There have been some changes there. And the Creative Researchers And Producers are losing their old punch.

Only one of the dance studios who could have some information for us, get it into Dancing Nights blog via Richie Fun. The others do not know anything about us or don't care. Meanwhile, I will do everything I can to promote whatever information they give me. I get routine flyers too late for posting and direct talk to our readers is what makes social media, not advertising. In blogging it is much more effective.

The neighbor islands are waking up slowly. I am getting more routine flyers but nothing concrete that would be for the reader/dancers of this blog. I do get some beautiful posters now and then but too late for posting. Beautiful colors and a good example of what can be done for our fellow dancers on all the neighbor islands.

Live music seems to be increasing and the interest in dancing to the "oldies but goodies." It has always been there but the young are always for the new. Latin Music in being "introduced" more and Oahu already has the reputation of having the best Rumba dancers in the Pacific. This seem to be developing more in West Oahu with the rise of Kapolei as Second City.

"Morning Dew" by Melveen Leed

I am recovering my health a little and I must find out what kind it is developing in the West and perhaps it is danceable. My ability to hear is getting worse. Kapolei has some Live Music occasionally. When they get a couple bars with dance floors, that will establish a little late night stuff in the West. This can, in turn, only lead to a Night Club open until at least 2 AM. I used to pass by there on the bus sometimes at 10 pm and everything was closed tighter than a drum.

"We are dancers and we believe that we learn to dance better by dancing. Whether it means

to learn to dance by practicing dancing or to learn to live by practicing living"
