-- Need Ta Input!!! Think About It

Personaly I think no dancers would be werid. Even though many may not notice them, or care weather or not they're there that's because you ALWAYS see them. I think the dancers go hand in hand with the music. Only thing that bothers me is when they're up there dancing, not really paying attention off in their own little "i'm hot and fucked on coke" look just sort of bobbing around. Oh and when they look like men. I hate that too.

Des does it right though, I've seen her dance twice I think. Once in LA and once out in SD for Markus and Armin. Her, as well as the other dancer with her, looked like they were having a blast. Basically if they were wearing normal clothes you'd never know they were go go dancers

Sorry.

j/k I like the dancers. At worst they're eye candy. When they're good (like Des) they add to the atmosphere. As long as they look like they're having fun, they're cool with me.

yeah, i'd have to say the majority of the dancers i recall have that coked-out blank stare, try not to make eye contact with anyone, their rhythm is on/off and they hardly ever smile unless a pro photographer is pointing a camera at them. that's probably how they all become part of the background to me. desiree on the other hand is the exception, you guys are pretty lucky to have her for a dancer, she genuinely loves the music too which is awesome

I went to see Diggers/Tenaglia in SF at Ruby Skye and there was something about the go-go set up that was awesome, the lightning hitting them, and how they danced on the high ass platform on top of the stage with props. That was pretty cool. I dont have any pictures but I'm sure some of the club websites may have some.

But to be honest, I do tons of clubbing.. edm.. non-edm and lately.. the go-go dancers suck. They just pick any skinny girl off the street that can shake her ass .. put her in some booty shorts and let her go.

i.e. One time at a certain trance club in LA .. (i had mention this in another thread) but man.. there was this go go dancer.. and man was she awful! I couldnt focus on anything except her b/c the go-go platform was right next to the stage. Talk about RHYTHMLESS NATION!! I couldn't stop laughing my ass off.

DESIRE.. you need to give go-go lessons to some of these dancers b/c they dont really move anything special from any other girl off the streets. Doing moves that not many normal people can do is what makes it special and eyecatching. And also looking happy and getting the crowd going helps too. Not the whole "look at me I'm hot and I'm going to pretend I dont care for any of you" style really kinda bores me a bit.

Maybe throw in some fire twirling? *shrugs* hehe

But as for you... keep on doing what ur doing.. gives me motivation to maybe move one day like that. LOL

Hey sweetie
I love a good dancer and it definitely adds to the night. Mediocre or worse, uncoordinated dancers really don't serve to do anything but be eye candy. Real dancers rock Much love to you and your craft. Keep dancing like there's no tomorrow--we need more passion in life.

Yeah you have to remember for me though, I can't wear wigs. I tried on new years, loved my hot pink wig and 10 into my set, it was sliding off so I had to pull it off on stage!!! Awful. I love doing outrageous outfits and props, but the way I dance........I dance so much and intense that no matter accessories I have, they come flying off. I even try to slow down my rythmn a bit to look good with the outfits. But yeah I can agree that there are ALOT of girls who look damn good with the body and even then I get intimidated cause' they're hot, but then when they get on the podium, I watch, and then I'm like, "WTF!" Gotta have the bod and skills, if not the bod, then you better have skills!!

Ever since monster massive 04 (I think I you were there too, in the crowd), I have been somewhat critical of go-go dancers. When edgar V dropped Endre - I kill for you (Probspot remix), I think one of the gogo dancers didn't know how to react to that massive breakdown and maybe out of sheer boredom she sits down infront of the crowd, spreads her legs wide open, and starts pating herself you know where... seriouslly as much as this could possibly be sex appeal, it was like WTF?! Almost like an insult to the beauty of that track, ever since then in my little clubbing experience, been noticing that most of them do NOT really feel the music, personally thats one of the largest turn offs for me and most of the time I either focus on people who are in the music instead and in extreme cases just close my eyes. I have never seen you dance (still under 21 ), I do believe you are beautiful and I have heard so many good things about you, and one day hopefully will get to see you dance .

PS: Usually Im with woody

lex.. do u got pics of the go-gos that were dancing on the top level above the stage? now that was some cool shit.

yeah at MM last year when Jules played (or was it the year before??) The dancers did this stripper move, pating eachother in a certain region, and I thought, "that's not dancing, that's alittle vulgar!" It just bugs me seeing dancers like that cause' it ruins our experience, cause' even then I'm a crowd participant and I'm enjoying the music with everyone else watching. I don't want to see that, I wanna see entertainment, jumping up and down, boucing around, going crazy!!! Fun shit!

i was on stage most of the night, so i didn't even notice the top dancers until much later. i did manage to snap one pic, but it kinda sucks

dancers at Ruby Skye are just about always in some costume.

interestingly, I never seem to post pics of them, lol. I can't find one in the pics I've posted. Never even noticed that. Mainly because I don't really ever pay attention.

But I can say that the few times I've paid a little attention to the dancers, the ones at Ruby do seem to at least make an effort to go with the music and have fun.

Yep Jules was there, I think this was before him though...in terms of the timeslots in the night. But yes, AMEN to:

Heres my thoughts.

Ive seen deslyn at avalon, and ive been to many other venues.. Seen a lot of go-go dancers, and most truely arent into the music. Deslyn is obviously one of the exceptions, as shes truely into the beat and looks amazing doing it, performances like that truely make the music high even higher to me, especially when im looking around during a awesome track, everyones going nuts, especially the go-go dancers with their amazing moves.

What i do NOT like are those freaky guys who come up on stage in their makeup and odd costumes. They never dance to the beat and always take away from the experience and mood. I wish they'd never show up, but i guess they're popular enough to stay for some people.

To me, a awesome night of trance happens when everyone in the house is dancing like mad to awesome tunes and getting 100% into it, and dancers like deslyn truely elevate the experience for me. When they are off beat or look bored or do striper type activitys (ive seen go-go dancers strip at avalon before), i am not into that. Im there dancing for the groove, the music and for the whole experience with everyone else. If i wanted to see topless chicks, id have went to a strip club.

Other people *cough cough Shafer8* might have some input you're looking for lol.

I do beleive that anyway you dice it, to add another sexy woman to any party at any time is a good choice rather than the other way around.

It is the worse thing ever to constantly surrounded by Sazich.


I really do feel that a good dancer in a sexy custom can really add to the event. I think almost every club in one way or another has this or had it. It just is good eye candy and can really make those hyped moments even that much better.

If you say that you do not like looking at beautiful women in sexy costumes, then we also know you like Broke Back Mountain

Hence what I said about you having better input

You may fine scantilly clad, slim girls dancing on a podium in front of you really hot, but I don't nessesarily do...cal l me a fag all you want.

I do not think it is about better unput, it is more about what is better. Girl on podeum VS girl not on podeum.

There are only so much you can do in a club visually (unless the budget is huge which it normally is not due to clubs/promoter wanting to save cash) and production wise.

Also never called you a fag, just saying that at the end of the day it is better to add women to an event than not, dancer or not.

The funnest thing is I was in Atlantci City for one week for work and it was all about the Drakkar noir and Gold Chain with orange tan with (it looked like ) olive oil on their face and wearing white sun glasses.


No shit and no offense but please.

I really think the dancer at Ice really rock and the dancers at Pure are really good as well.

yea that asian girl that's all tatted up at Ice is fuckin tight. never been to pure tho.

Yeah when dancers are done up tight it really does work well.

I have this picutre of these dancers at Cream, the look pretty nice too. I just can't figure out how to get pictures in here, pisses me the heck off!

[img*]link[*/img] just take out the *'s

i guess there is a big misunderstanding with some people. its not that us guys dont like the beautiful girls (such as deslyn) there, its just that in my experience i havent seen any that are amazingly beautiful looking. i have never seen her perform so i have no idea what shes like live but her pics i have seen on the net shes very good looking. but since i have never been to a club and had good gogo dancers up there its harder to say whats best.

When I went to Cream in 2004, the gogos there were definitely good looking, but couldn't dance for the life of them. They just looked good up there, but lacked skill and endurance. Gotta always keep up with the beat, even you're about to passout! There are times where I feel faint cause' I danced a gig right before after hours and I'm keeping up with the beat, but I make sure I'm still going to keep the vibe up.

The cream dancers are picked from all over, I think they submit fotos to work there, but I'm not sure, cause' when I went to Armada and Cream in 2004, they did not tickle my fancy with any foot work.
