shag club is fun!
 
this is not a singles club but there are always a few tables of singles at the shag club dance each thurs night at bradenton rec center....even if we do not dance, it is great to watch the talented couples who do and to visit with friends. bring your own snacks and beverage (water is provided). party starts at six, $3 at the door to pay patrick the dj, and goes until about eight forty at bradenton rec center on pinellas place....we could really use a few guys at least for the slow dances :) some of the married guys are very gracious to take us for a spin on the dance floor occasionally. i am on door duty this week so say hi!

those married guys are lucky we dance with them.
maybe I should change my name to
Snickers..:thumbup:

yes, snickers :) we must appreciate the married ladies who don't mind loaning us their hubbies for a dance or two. many clubs are not so accomodating!

It sounds simply Shagadellic but I think my wife would give me anitfreeze if I went to one of those.

Most of us baby Boomer males grew up in an era when " dancing " was anything but .
I recall what great dancers my parents were in the traditional sense . My late dad was a " blue-collar guy " a pipe -fitter by trade . However I can vividly recall my parents moving the furniture and rolling up the rugs so they could practice their dance moves to the tune of a record played on an old Victrola .
I still remember how at my sister`s wedding everyone clearing the floor to watch my parents jitter-bug . Unfortunately I did not inherit those skills .

well, jim, you are still welcome to come and chat! dancing is becoming a lost art replaced by jumping around rhythmically or not so much :) i love to watch good couples.

Some of us "married ladies" enjoy "lending" our husbands to the singles to dance - don't be afraid to come up to the guys either and ask THEM to dance!

yeah, that way you get to dance with other guys too. good dancers always have more fun mixing it up with different partners.

sounds fun, love to dance but am single. How would I find the single people at the dance.

Nov. 4 was yesterday. Did you mean this Wednesday, 11/6?

Are they all aware of what the term "shag" means in the vernacular of England?

LOL we never know what time or day it is here!! the change in daylight savings time probably threw everyone completely out of whack! every day is a holiday! yes, we mean this wed nov 6 at 7pm!

K.C.Boyd 11-04-2013 07:41 PM

Thanks but that will probably not work for me but still will like to try the shag club or whatever it is on Thursdays.

chachacha 11-05-2013 04:00 PM

well, kc, if you attend at bradenton rec center on thurs nights at six, they can surely point you toward the singles, who usually congregate on the right side of the room, closer to the dj....music gets going at six thirty....byob and snacks.

My brother and his wife are life long shaggers. Often attend local dances and travel for those out of town. My wife and I have attended a few but are not regulars.
