    All I want to do is dance.

    What do you think? Is there too many of them? Or am I a lone party pooper?

    p.s. maybe I could cope with the odd 1 or 2 Fancy Dress Fresstyles a year.
    If 2 freestyles clash on the same night, I will always choose the one without the fancy dress theme.

    If there is only 1 freestyle and it is fancy dress, I will do something else. Sometimes, I will even stay in with PMC and the telly.

    Aye. At a themed evening, it seems many people turn up in theme 5 mins before the judging, stay themed for the judging, and then go off to get changed into something more dull. Cheating, really.

    Maybe because its a dance evening - so they want to dance and what they are wearing isn't practical to dance in?

    I think some people go to great effort with their outfits (eg UP ) and they usually dance for a while in them before changing into something more comfortable.

    I applaud the minority of people who get into the spirit of fancy dress and dress up for our entertainment.

    As long as there are people prepared to go to all this trouble then long may theme nights continue.

    Re: Is it Freestyle or Circus?

    I honestly don't understand what the problem is. People talking about not going to nights, if they are themed nights.

    Or do they stop you coming in at the door if you're not in costume??

    If it's a themed night, and people want to dress up, then fair enough. I like to sometimes, if it's a theme I like. If people don't want to dress up, and just go in "normal" clothes, then fair enough, do that. What's the problem?

    Really don't understand why it would stop anyone going along*. Surely it's another case of live and let live?





    *Provided of course that the theme stuff doesn't cut too much into the dancing time!!

    True in some cases, I can sympathise. But people in practical costumes tend to do the same.
    Don't mind me: I'm just bitter at the loss of women in hawt costumes.

    Always been dead set against fancy dress after some childhood trauma. But went to halloween party, Blue eyes as a which and me as her familiar. Only down side was a moment when I was lead by the tail momenteraly. Bit of a yowel put that right. Oddly enough I had fun. strange.
    Was difficult dancing with those who had tall hats/hair.
    Great night

    Praps I should explain why I avoid fancy dress evenings:


    1 I can't be bovvered

    2 I feel guilty if I don't go in fancy dress and skulk around avoiding the organiser.

    3 One never knows until one walks in the door if one is going to be the only idiot (apart from the crew) in fancy dress.

    4 One never knows until one walks in the door if one is going to be the only idiot NOT in fancy dress

    5 I'm not wearing that false nose again. Not after the incident when the condensation dribbled up my nostrils during the seducer.
