Last night we held another Lindy Bomb at Union Square. This is an unofficial thing where a group of dancers find out that we are playing in the Subway and come out and dance.
New Yorkers are some generally fairly jaded cats. When you can create and environment that stops people in their tracks with wonder and joy, it is a rewarding achievement. So big thanks to all the dancers that came out especially Akemi and Voon for telling some of their friends about it. A few months ago the New York Times wrote a piece about one of these events and I’ll send you to that article so you can get a journalistic perspective on it.
There’s a viral video on Facebook documenting last night’s lindy bomb. I’m not sure if these links work if you are not a Facebook member already but perhaps it will. Here’s the link.
