So glad that "hiatus" is now just "temporary venue change". Yay Festa!

[Kelly]

Last week was fun!!:tonguesmilie: ...especially with the out-of-town guests!!! I'll be heading back on wednesday!....:shades:

[coastswing]

I'll be back in town on Wednesday and can't wait to go.....it's been too long since I've had my Wednesday dance fix.

[westcoastjunkie]

Yeah, it's Wednesday, and my tummy is all better. Looking forward to tonight. :D

[Khrystyna]

Festa: you swing hard, but youre great!!!

[westcoastjunkie]

OMG I had sooooooo much fun last night! After I got my beer and got settled in I pretty much danced every song. :D

Loved the music last night - lots of songs I haven't heard in a long time.

[coastswing]

:rolleyes: WHY OH WHY do I allow myself to miss this? I was looking forward to going out last night but (insert lame excuses here)..... I missed seeing everyone. Save me a dance for next week please!

You also missed a very yummy cheesecake that Paige brought for Rotchild's birthday.

So that was the delicacy that I saw in pictures posted from the night..... this isn't helping me feel any better for missing the dance. And who said this isn't a community :tonguesmilie:

P.S. Happy Birthday Rothchild!!!!

What a good night!! I love that when Festa DJ's, I want to dance to every song. Such a good time, it's always a shame when the night ends. Can't wait for next week!

[coastswing]

It was a great night. Nice mix of music and great group of people. I had a really nice time. Thanks again Festa for always hosting a great party.

Same here. My feet are still hurting from dancing all night (and Tuesday too) in high heals, but it was worth it.

[coastswing]

Is tonight the last night at The Blarney Stone? Will the dance be returning to Taj? Any status on the remodeling of Taj?


So who's going tonight?

[christina]

I'm. Coming. Out.

I want the world to know, got to let is show.

I'm coming. OUUUUT!

I am going out tonight, not to be confuse with Christina who is coming out tonight. ;)

[christina]

As per usual - the music was fantastic. Floor didn't seem as slow as usual which was nice too.

Keep up the awesome DJing John! Loved how many people were asking names of songs/who sang them and then writing them down to purchase later on.

[christina]

Is it possible to change the thread title to Thursday? Or should we just start a new thread now that this dance has moved nights?

[westcoastjunkie]

I got an email also that the dance has "officially" moved to Thursdays. No word on cross-honoring admission with Frim Fram but I read on another site a "pre-register on-line 10 times, get one admission free". Is this correct? :)

[westcoastjunkie]

This just in from John Festa:
