Harford Hop 0 Posted June 28, 2009 Report Share Posted June 28, 2009 Hi Folks ! My name is Mike, I've recently returned to Djing at the ripe old age of 49 ! :spin: Why at 49 you may ask ? Well I used to do a bit maybe 10 years ago with my son for a bit of extra earnings etc. but packed it in when he lost interest and I changed my full time job. Then about 3 years ago my wife came home with a poster for Jive lessons, so we thought we would give it a go for a bit of fun, after a couple of lessons we were hooked ! To cut a long story short I have now begun organizing monthly dances at a local Social Club for our fellow dancers purely for enjoyment and non profit making as any profit made will be used to pay for a live band when we can afford it. The style of Jive is 1940's/Swing based on Lindy Hop, we were surprised how big a scene there is for this style of Jive but not a lot of followers near where we live in Pembrokeshire hence my idea of dusting off the Cd players ! Sorry to rattle on a bit but just wanted to say Hello ! :Thumbup: Link to post Share on other sites
