I have never seen any shuffling live, but i watched the video on ITM and it looks pretty awesome.
It's world famous too, i have read people from Canada, US, UK etc talking about it on these forums before.
Go Melbourne!

Funnily enough despite the shuffle Sydney has an even wierder style of dancing, it looks like they are climbing up a ladder! ( for those who've seen it u know what i mean, for those who haven't seen it ask me to demonstrate ) oh so funny to watch!

I'm intrigued by this "ladder climb" of which you speak.
I don't recall any Sydney Ladder Climb action before, but I'm interested to see it

LMAO! When i first moved to Sydney I told my mates in Melbourne how strange the danicng style was ( all on the spot). When they came up one commented that it looks as if they are all trying to climb a ladder but getting nowhere.
Porbably because i was used to the Melbourne style where there is more side to side movement. Shuffle or not Melbourne has the best technique imo!

lol yeah, they aren't exactly giving the location away it seems like. I reckon it'll be corner of Bourke n Swanston. If I catch the train I'll get off at Melb Central and walk down towards Flinders and hopefully find it, follow the sounds of tekers I guess.

My guess would be that its at that.. thingy.. that's near burke st, city square I think its called OR at federation square.. so I'll get off train at Flinders and it shouldn't be hard to find.
