And a ready made dance floor set up by the one and only (at no extra charge :wink: )

All I would need (as said in Dance Poll thread) is about 10 great leads, Lily B as the 'warm-up' girl (everyone loves Lily) and she's a good mate to have chill-out chats with:grin:

My dead mate would be John Lennon, then we would never run out of conversation.

AND of course Pammy's fridge (which is always open) and hopefully always full :yeah: complete with DavidB who can double up as a great lead and an amazing chef :drool:

Don't forget your air guitar cos it will be a while until you're good enough to play with Satriani's - it won't take much room anyway:wink: .

People :-
5 Dancers
1 complete beginner lady - no dance experiance or pre-conceptions.
Michell (?) from Aberdeen - dosn't come to Ceroc that much any more, but was a taxi dancer when I first started; she knows so many different styles and is one of the very best dancers I have ever danced with.
David & Lilly - nice to dance with, lots to learn from. (either/both)
Someone that I could 'debate' dancing stuff with.

1 Film Star
bruce lee - interesting to learn from.

1 Music artist
Someone who could sit around a fire on a beach, play the guitar and sing songs. Michelle Shocked, Sheryl Crow, Eric Clapton... someone like that. (Sanata and Sting were taken)

1 Non arts (music media etc.) celeb
Billy Connoly - good humor wile being "windswept and interesting".

1 Famous person from History (dead or alive)
Leanardo Da Vinci - artist, engineer, philosopher, designer... an amazing mind that saw the causality behind everything.

1 Other person (Wife/pet Idol etc)
A gourmet cheff - poss Jamie Oliver, more because of his style than his cooking.


Music :-
10 tracks (5 dance 5 non dance)
Can't say - can't think on any ten tracks that I would want to listen to over and over and over again. I've got a musician anyway.

Films/TV/Books :-
5 (in total or of each) of your fav's
Book: Laurel K Hamilton: Guilty Pleasures. (one of the best written books I have ever read)
Book: Compelte works of Arthur Connan Doyle. (I like the way that "Homes" thinks)
Book: Harry Potter - Philosopher's stone (Authors always take more time and pay more attention to detail on the first book. Editors are also a bit more ruthless.)
Book: Complete works of shakespear (never got round to reading it all...)
Film: LOTR trilogy - so much to see in every scene that it would survive multiple viewings and intense scrutany.

Tupac Shakur is or rather was an American, rap/R & B artist - so many good songs. Worth trying to find some and have a listen - dependent, of course, on whether you like that style or not - I'm guessing not Chicklet or you'd already know who he was :wink:

And from a purely aesthetic point of view - he was gorgeous :drool:
