A flashdance by any othe rname is called RAID. Some kind of acronym for something about dancing. My friend and fellow dancer, Raime, dreamed this up of her own volition, comletely apart and seperate from our kicked bucket of a mobile dance party. Her post is below. Since we are utter professionals at this, i figured we could help her out with providing the RAID army. Anyone down?
Cheers

Ramie's Post:
It has been WAY too long since LA has seen some proper guerilla dance action. Its time to have our own Dance Dance Revolution. This is a call to action.
Here's what I am thinking. We'll start off easy. Short, spontaneous, mobile dance parties, staged in shopping malls, on street corners, wherever dancing does not usually occur, and perhaps some places where it does. I am thinking of starting out using 80's tunes, but I could be persuaded into other genres. We'll build up to some choreography....think Busby Berkley on acid, faux Fosse, and interpretive dance to cheesy Journey songs. Think of Michel Gondry's video to Daft Punk's "Around the World". No formal dance training required, in fact, having two left feet might be a plus!
and we'll call it....RAID. Random Acts of Irreverent Dance.
contact me if this is something that interests you.

Re: A Dance, Anyone?
Tue, March 7, 2006 - 11:50 PMIt has been WAY too long since our Last Dance. My circle of Anarchists & Artists are just much too small these days, but you have me and my dancing...boots, that's for sure. Lemme know when.

Re: A Dance, Anyone?
Fri, April 28, 2006 - 1:40 PMThis sounds like a good idea. Need more people though, maybe crossposting it to one of the techno, rave groups?
In any case, I'm there for the guerilla dance party.
