I call it grooving, but other people just say raving. Its hard to explain..Its just using your dancing skills to "defeat" your opponent...Its quite fun actually.

Well you just moved to california right? in the bay area, San Jose specifically there is tons of parties during the summer, literally every weekend, but the bigger parties draw the bigger names like Cyberfest and Metropolis are two of the biggest. There might be one for New Years.

I love battling! i did it all the time in europe! except it was always with Americans and Canadians hehe.

anyway, i may have done this in new york but i am still not really clear on what it is. regardless i dont think we called it that.

usually held at raves and the 18+ clubs
usually a human circle is built, in the middle there will be two people trying to "PUNK" the other one with innovative dancing moves.
while the rest of the crowd cheers them on. sometimes they are alright but when someone is doing liquid and this twat starts break dancing it ruins the whole thing. happen to me when i was younger and used to that. i just walked off.
sometimes some of the people are very good dancers. this works well for the people who don't want to look crazy while dancing. just copy some of their moves.

I've seen dance battles before.. @ Buzz, Nation, pretty cool stuff, but im not as L33T as they are. I can pop n lock and stuff, but not real good.

As for raving, i never really learned it..i just kind of watched peopl, taught myself and just go with the music. I cant hold on to glowsticks for the life of me lol they always fly out of my fingers and hit people hahaah!

o well

each to their own

i love battling
for me it's usually with girls and i love battling to house music

i've battled with a couple guys but it's not as fun

yeah I only battle girls hehe. Its pretty cool all the little innovations you start doing to win. Its fun.

ya Ive only battled to house....dunno why i havent tried with trance yet.

heh


now, breakdance battles, those are the shiznit!!!!!!!!

A mate and I had a battle in a club once, although I didn't know thats what you call it. He thought he was da man and said that he owned the club with his brother, except they were like, 15. We caned their asses!!

Yo Vivid, I use to battle with a crew in Philly, the Original Kicks, but now we are all just hangin' and dance for fun.

I love dance battles. We used to b-boy battle at clubs all the time.

As for dancing battles, it mainly depends on where you're at. In Dc at Nations, it's always a blast (except that most DC heads can't dance, sorry, it's the truth). In NYC, it's a little scary at how mad people get when you school them on the dancefloor. And in Philly, you'll get your assed handed to on the dance floor.

It's always fun. We had the best battle one night at Space in Philly, it was Liquid Pop Collective vs The Original Kicks Crew.

did you hear about the hissy fit DT threw about battles at his friday party at arc? he said he didnt want breakdancing in his club because it took up too much space and was distracting to teh other people there. (not a direct quote but it was something like that) DT annoys the piss out of with shit like that...

for all i know, we don't "battle" when we go out. It's more about having fun.
