Newbies requesting dance venue information please
 
For future info:
Just wondering, are there dance venues that play current toons to dance to? Such as hip-hop, more contemporary styles such as Jonny Lang, Anderson East, Selena Gomez. Robin Thicke and the like.
Thank you! Bill & Dani

LOL i guess this answers the question!! Anyone up for opening a club ??

At first I was going to say, Orlando. However, there is one local entertainer "Petrina" who sings contemporary songs, she no longer does the squares, usually the country clubs, private parties, the Waterfront Hotel, etc. Check out her website.

The Villages, Entertainer Entertainment - Petrina

At first I thought it was a joke, but maybe OP is from the Dakotas or perhaps Vietnam or one of the other countries that have been untouched.

I never heard of any of them.

Good question for the "Line Dancers" they'll even dance to the tune of The National Anthem... :1rotfl:

I do understand your question, but I am not aware of a specific venue that plays more modern music. About the "newest" music I can remember hearing was from (gulp) Madonna, Elton John, and Billy Joel. It is possible that Margarita Republic might play pop tunes later at night, you can check with them.

Ha, ya got that straight

We saw a group of French Canadian Snowbirds actually get up and dance to "The Battle Hymn of the Republic" when we lived down in Ft Lauderdale

It was request night...I was going to request "Amazing Grace" just to see if they'd dance to that too, but my wife took my wallet away

To answer your question: it isn't likely you'll find one in golf-cart distance to the Villages, and most people who are members of this forum wouldn't likely know of anything close to what you're looking for in surrounding towns/counties.

The reason for this is - the vast majority of members of this forum are over 60, and most of the rest of us are over 50. We didn't grow up with those bands, we never danced to those bands, the local radio station doesn't play their songs.

HOWEVER - Jonny Lang isn't exactly contemporary, nor has anyone ever accused him of being hip-hop. Not sure why you included him.

This part of Florida is mostly older folks whose most recent foray into "modern" music is the disco era of the late 1970's into the 1980's.

Pay a local band enough and they might do a private party for what you want

Our granddaughter is a national instructor for Hip Hop, and 6 other classes. Has great music, and videos she has made with Twitch. Also is also captain and Choreographer for dance team at college.

Has plenty of time on her hands since her premed classes and her cadaver labs have been put on hold.

She might be the right age (19) for the music you’re looking for.:a040:
