Since the first settlers danced around the roaring fires (they weren't dancing, they were dodging flying tomahawks - Chimples) Montrealers have been united through the languages, cultures, generations by the apolitical-amoral-alinguistic act of dancing.
We at Coolopolis have long revered dance and its role in our lives, as seen by our mandatory Jazzersize breaks.
Below is a photo tribute to all those who ever moved their feet for the pure pleasure of self-expression. Whether clothed, unclothed, masked, or mohawked, those who have moved their feet and arms around to the beat dance with the Gods. We feel that Montreal should reinvent itself as the dance capital of the world. Mandatory dancing at the airport, customs and if you boogie to at least two numbers you get a mayor's stamp of approval as a keepsake. So are you with me readers?
I'm sure Todd and Parker would be thrilled to see themselves "Walking Like an Egyptian" here.
ReplyDeleteIf all Montreal dancers looked like the first pic girl on the right, Montreal would be the center of the Universe...wow
