Default 2 Questions

1) Does anyone have experience in dance choreography?

2) Anyone interested in doing a flash mob in the Villages at one of the squares?

I thought it would be fun to get a large group together. Thoughts???

You might enjoy seeing a version of a "flash mob" here, called The Freeze. Many frequent posters here including Barefoot, Fireboy, Cha Cha Cha, SamHass. The Vicar of Dibly, formerly Hyacinth, RokinRhonda, Johnny M, and one that has passed on to the Village of Heavenly, I know her real name but can't think her screen name, we called her Wiwi. Sad and happy memories here

. Bare, Redwitch, help with names. I think this was 2008.

The freeze was great fun. We had the band totally confused. Loved how they incorporated their confusion into their song. People would come up and blow in our faces. SamHass kissed one of the freezers (her hubby). Nice part is no choreography needed.

The Freeze was so much fun, the planning and then the actual "event". And the way the band participated. We laughed and laughed. It was 2008, back when there were only about 2,000 members of TOTV and we were a close-knit group. Many have since moved on to Facebook.
The video really takes me back. It was nice to see Wiwi/Island Girl in the video, she has since passed to the Village of Heavenly. So many happy memories, so much fun!

Yes The Freeze was great fun. I couldn't believe how long we held the positions. We had just moved here that summer, 2008, and loved being with everyone at the squares. I'm enjoying the remembrance and am game for a flash mob. Bring it on!
