hi everyone-
this looks like a great tribe, but i just joined so that i
could post a comment.

i fucking love dancing. i love dancing all nigh. hearing the rythem of drums & bass, etc.
on some weekends, like a lot of san francisco, i just gotta go out and dance. it feels so good.
it truely is a form of therapy. a total release.

whats so messed up is...are the labels that much of the scene promotes for the solo freaks that like to go out and dance, like their fucking howlin' at the moon. its fucking nature man! and i feel like the community is otrasizing those that arent feeling the need to "having to participate". when did it become a crime to go out (SOLO) and enjoy the beats that the dj is spinnin. this is all making me very very sad, and unwelcome in something that i cant live without.

!!!!!!!

    I just joined this tribe too, and all I have to say is dance on! You can do whatever you want and love it and nobody has to approve!
    If you want to dance by yourself all night in the middle of dowtown SF, do it, why not?
    Keep dancin
    I'm a solo freak too and I love it!
    peace

    I have solo club danced for decades, even dancing with bands to get everyone else up & dancing before they are too drunk. My experiences have been that their is a majority of insecure people that if they can't do it will make fun of the people that are, get drunk & become pushy or sexxually abusive, become hostile bcz I am not pleasing their ego etc etc. But the pposite has been true which is what this tribe is about. I have had many many women & some men tell me that it looked like I was having so much fun that it gave them the courage to just get up & dance. Some of those people have gone on to find a form they could immerse in & joined troupes for performance.

    It can be difficult to ignore the detractors but that is what dance trance is all about. As long as you are respectful of their space (sometimes hard for me when they come slithering & crushing around or the drunk ____ starts in with the mimicry or grinding) enjoy yourself. There Is someone(s) watching with delight & being infused with the joy & may start their own solo.

      Dance for yourself. If someone else understands, good. If not, no matter. Go right on doing what interests you, and do it until it stops interesting you. - Louis Horst

        Fuck the haters. Just go and do your own thing. I love drum & bass too, and when I'm moving on the dance floor, I'm pretty much in my own world. If the DJ's playing it right, I could be the only one in the room and I won't care.
