Welcome to General Chat - GAW Community Area
This General Chat area started off as a place for people to talk about things that are off topic, however it has quickly evolved into a community and has become an integral part of the GAW experience for many of us.
Based on its evolving needs and plenty of user feedback, we are trying to bring some order and institute some rules. Please make sure you read these rules and participate in the spirit of this community.
Rules for General Chat
-
Be respectful to each other. This is of utmost importance, and comments may be removed if deemed not respectful.
-
Avoid long drawn out arguments. This should be a place to relax, not to waste your time needlessly.
-
Personal anecdotes, puzzles, cute pics/clips - everything welcome
-
Please do not spam at the top level. If you have a lot to post each day, try and post them all together in one top level comment
-
Try keep things light. If you are bringing in deep stuff, try not to go overboard.
-
Things that are clearly on-topic for this board should be posted as a separate post and not here (except if you are new and still getting the feel of this place)
-
If you find people violating these rules, deport them rather than start a argument here.
-
Feel free to give feedback as these rules are expected to keep evoloving
In short, imagine this thread to be a local community hall where we all gather and chat daily. Please be respectful to others in the same way
🤣 I took ballroom dancing and can do the basic cha cha. I lived in very small town and the local dance teacher was a celebrity. Took ballet and tap K-12, skipped a couple years when I was older. She taught ballroom and most people took it in 6th or 7th grade. I learned ballet and tap but can't keep time with the music. All & all it was good for me because I was moving. By the time I was in high school 81-85 dancing was what ever you liked. We had a dance every Saturday night (fundraiser for senior class trip). We were dorks in between the parting. The DJ played anything from top 40 to Skynyrd. When "soul train" type music came on we did the dance like on the show.
It's amazing how different music was from your age to mine. I've never heard of the bands you mentioned.
"Eclectic" that's the reason for my username. I say Elvis recorded Moody Blue for me. I'm everything that song sings about. My poor hubby. Nice chatting have great day☺️
Brian Setzer was with the Stray Cats before he went on his own. Check him and the others out, you might like them.
Was a delightful chat. You have a great day, as well! :)
