[Tango-L] Spoon time.. (avoided..)...

[DHodgson]

"Well there's nothing to lose
And there's nothing to prove
I'll be dancing with myself"

I think you boys are missing the point, analyzing this too much as usual.
Just avoid the spoon.

It is like in this video clip. If either of you think your looking too
dignified while practicing out in public then I have to wonder how well
either of you dance the Follows.

Any self respecting Lead out there has got to, at some point, been aware
that they have in fact. Looked like a total boob practicing tango in public.

In my humble opinion, if a Lead does not get past this, the Lead is going to
have difficulty leading the Follow and letting her be present only relying
on pantomime, airs, or antics.

The Follows already know the Leads are well, "Guys". I prefer to answer the
question "yes, I am a Guy". Then get down to some great dancing with the
Follows.

BTW: The video clip.

     Tee hee!  :-)   He may well be a good milonga dancer, I don't
know, but as most of us are aware, it takes two to tango (along with
the skills of leading and following), and in this video, the guy's
just Billy Idol.  Sing it, Billy:

On the floor of tokyo
Or down in London town to go, go
With the record selection
With the mirror reflection
I'm dancing with myself

When there's no-one else in sight
In the crowded lonely night
Well I wait so long
For my love vibration
And I'm dancing with myself

Oh dancing with myself
Oh dancing with myself
Well there's nothing to lose
And there's nothing to prove
I'll be dancing with myself

Huck, "next time a video of a couple dancing might be more
appropriate, Mario!  :-)  "
