Wife's dance group contest submission

[RogerDat]

Some of the gals in the dance group my wife is in submitted a video to a contest put on by the Band Queen. There were dance steps posted online, with only two weeks between those being available until the submission had to be made. The band then took snippets from the fan videos to make into a final video.

Their submission didn't get used in the video of "winning" submissions but... they did get over 1000 views from other queen fans. I'm biased but I think they did a great job and it is sort of a hoot to watch a bunch of ladies from near 60 to in their 80's rock it.

Right now they are 20 views short of 1.1k so I'm sort of hoping folks here will put them into "double digit" of over 1k for views. The views are their consolation prize so to speak and I do think folks seem to enjoy the routine they do. These ladies really are Queen fans. My wife is absolutely a super fan. To the point of being annoying when it comes to picking music in the car.

I viewed it! Those women rock!

Too cool.
They're over 1,000 views now.

Too cool.
They're over 1,000 views now. Yep! But over 1,000 the display is just 1k until one hits 1,100 then it goes to 1.1k at 1,200 it would be 1.2k etc. They had 1,081 which still shows up as 1k so I'm hoping they can hit 1.1k so it shows up as "more" than 1k before the whole group gets together for their Holloween party.

Freddy Mercury would be smiling from his grave! Such a great performance, I even replayed it for my wife, who enjoyed viewing it as much as I did. Kudos to them all, as well as observation that -- whichever lady in the performance is yours -- you're definitely a lucky man!

My wife is front and center dressed in purple. That was about the 5th time they went through it for the camera, after practicing for a couple hours before hand. They were starting to get tired I think but you would hardly notice it from the way they were going at it. And yes I know, when it comes to wives I'm definitely punching above my weight class.

Funny story about that outfit. She had to stop for gas wearing it and she commented to the cashier about how it felt funny to be dressed up like that and out and about. Fellow behind her said "I'm from Tennessee and pretty much most of the women around town are dressed like that every Sunday." She got a grin out of that since those outfits are from a dance number they did for a show. The number was called "Saved" where they come out to organ music and then it shifts to a honkytonk number they tap dance to.

PS. Up to 1,092 views only 8 more and they roll over to 1.1k :-)

1.1k now.I came home to a very happy wife. Who had already seen the count cross 1.1 and told me as soon as I walked in. So thanks guys! And as it happens she was watching "her program" Dancing With The Stars. :-)

Well they move way better than I do. Enjoyed the video. Have both the video and the music CD and both the wife have repeatedly watched them and played the music. When they did the Live Aid concert they showed the dummy from EMI bet he felt like a fool. Frank

20 some years ago my bosses wife tried to get me into line dancing. I told her I'm not very good at dancing. "Have you ever done any dancing," she asked. "Well, the last time anyone ever accused me of dancing, I was stomping the life out of a rattlesnake!"

"Well, the last time anyone ever accused me of dancing, I was stomping the life out of a rattlesnake!" I went visual with you hopping around on a snake and laughed my tail off. We did line dancing for a bit. Then tried 2 step. it ended there, she wouldn't let me lead. Said she knew where we were supposed to be going and she was sure I didn't. She might have had a point there.

Last time anyone accused me having having good rhythm was in a pinball arcade. I guess I could make those flippers "dance" just a bit, and had some good hip action to go with it. But then 40 some years ago my hips were in a whole lot better shape than today.

Sometimes when I revisit that event with a visual replay in my mind I need to try not to hyperventilate. It was quite, ahh, exciting.

I bet how you came to be trying to dance on a rattlesnake rather than shooting it would make for an interesting and exciting story. By exciting I mean someone else having a rough time far away from where I am.

That was awesome! Keep on ROCKING ladies!

Over 1300 views now and another thumbs up.Yep my wife is checking the count now like I check USPS tracking when a mold is on its way to me. People enjoying what they did is making her very happy. I showed her the nice comments here and it really made her smile.

And now the view count is at 1,480 so just shy of 1.5k since the larger dance group participates in an October show with the band, chorus, and skits as a fundraiser for the senior center the dancers always have a Halloween party. The ladies were tickled at how well their Queen number was received. Thanks to all of you that gave them a look, a thumbs up, or a comment.

This was pretty good but they did a Motown review show that was really great. As well as a show based on Broadway musicals that featured some pretty hot tap dancing.
