(open sesame chrissy)
typical bert


(dan from public access heights!)
YAHWEH OR THE HIGHWAY


--etymological side-note: yahweh, god's name, from the hebrew YHWH, too sacred to be spoken, the vowel sounds are uncertain--mormon parallel? : : ELOHIM : : (because i can)

(can't touch this mike)
les triplettes & some friends


my comments then: "wow. not sure how i stumbled on this one. also not sure if it's popular with the kids--i'm pretty out of touch, but this is simply too ridiculous not to post. seems the worst of country has raped the worst of r&b--a new monster. besides, let's be realistic, there's simply not enough ass-shakin the danceoff:"


&lest i forget, the deliciously named:

(ania, in part for the whole)
orfeu negro--toca orfeu, toca


(narin enters lavishly, along with nancy)
Yuri, la cantante mexicana con el tema "Este amor no se toca"

: : 3rd five : :

disco queens&kings. still on the catch-up.
--beginning with:

(julio, a pache pache boy)
why disco died, we'll never know


then my spazzy response: first, it's flashbeagle, charlie brown

then, embarrassingly, a second coming of disco
funny how funny at time

(compliments steven kim, presented here in translation)
steven sez...hmm...oh jeez

a husker du dance party


a deliriously confusing mix of awe & exploitation:

starting from the back -- visits re visits

: : the 1st five : :

THE CLASSIC! evil robot-whore maria
"for her--all seven deadly sins!"


(chrissy sez)
No self respecting freakout would be complete without


(kelsey notes)
interpretive dance freakouts are pretty rad too.
