Today is June 27th. Do you have your Shag Tracks 30th Anniversary tickets? The fun begins on August 14th (or 13th if I get set up early). If you've never been to Shag Tracks, or any big event dance outside of your own club, you've never experienced some of the most memorable times you'll have as a dancer.
Before I started playing for Shag Tracks, Vicki and I were there partying with over 300 of our friends. The more you came, the more friends you made and the more you wanted to come back again and again. With each year we moved it to the top of our list of the best parties anywhere.
When I started DJing at Shag Tracks, it was so much fun to keep you guys dancing, play with the other great DJs, Dr. Duck, The Louisville Girls, David Shaw, Mac & Betty, Old Beau, Band of Oz, and all the great bands we've had. Getting to know Rose & Dick, the late Delmus & Judy, and all the movers and shakers made me feel like I had another home. Somewhere I could play and everyone loved it! Boppin' the Blues, Beach, Shag and all the fun tunes at the Duck Races. When I helped start BIB, we had to have Duck Races!!
Each passing year, which I now count at 15 or more, Vicki and I knew this was the fun party, the come dancing and bring your swimsuit party, the let's add one more day party, the here come the shots party.
Working with Rose each year, I had the pleasure of working with Mac and Mike Young. Now that Mac is dancing on another plane, it's Mike Young and Laura Yates providing all the libations and giving of their time and money to make sure those Shriners at Al Hambra can help as many kids as possible. Mike is one of the most giving people you'll ever meet and with Laura by his side has raised thousands beyond thousands of dollars for the Shriners. The theme of Shag Tracks is "We Dance So Kids Can Walk". Is there a better theme to any dance? Did you know the "adult pool party" has raised all that money??
At the pool party, we're not everyone's cup of tea, or Bloody Mary, if you will. But we have a PARTY. with all that's happened over the last 4 to 5 years, it's a respite to hear some great tunes, dance, laugh, and be with, not just dance friends, but real honest to goodness FRIENDS. You need to come dancing with us to experience for yourself what fun feels like. And this is the year to do it.
Shag Tracks is 30 years old, and we need you to come help us celebrate. My challenge from Bill Moran, your host, is to get 50 tickets sold by July 31st. I told him there was no way we could do that many in a month! I told him we'll do 100!!!
if you're a new member of a Shag or Bop club, a new member of Choo Choo, or a veteran member, or just want to experience what everyone has told you about, this is your year.
We'll be waiting by the pool, on the great AL Hambra dance floor, and by registration, to welcome you. Bring some friends. Let's say "Thank You" to Rose, Bill, Mac, Mike, Laura, BigFish, and everyone who makes this event work.
Say thank you by putting me over that 100 mark for July. That's my thank you.
Come dancing! Keep Dancing! See you at the pool!
