dance off

Last night was the second annual LA's 80's dance party! This year, instead of shaking at 4R, we headed out, to Union Hall. This is a venue in the slope that has it all, indie mini-concerts, late night djs, strong drinks (and PBR), encyclopedias, brunch, and oh yeah, bacci ball lanes!
But the 80s dancing was rather stellar. I'm not trying to sound proud, but I do believe, LA, C, B, M and I started if off. Of course, we didnt finish it, well, maybe B did, but the highlight of the evening was the dance off between two young men. One was wearing a sweatband and the other a wool sweater . . . who would you place your bets on? While we "molly ringwalded" and attempted to popandlock* these fellows swirled and moved, but neither commited to "the worm"
The next morning we reconveined at UnionHall for a fireside brunch. While the menu was varied and surroundings cozy, service was crap, so we left without trying a round of the bacci.


*did you know there is a website for 80s dance moves
