HEY HEY HEY THERE KIDS, KICK THIS JIVE!!
It's been a while since I put this here e'mailin' list to use!! First of all,
I'd like to extend wishes of a VERY Happy New Year to you all. I hope that
you're holidays were just swell. Good luck in this new year ahead of us. Now
I got some news for you, so all you crazy alligators read on, read on . . .
'cause I gotta hummer of an announcement comin' your way that just might
brighten your day!
**RYAN FRANCOIS AND JENNY THOMAS have plans to conduct a workshop right here in
this quaint li'l villa o' LAS VEGAS.**
The date is, Saturday, January 29th (that's the end of THIS MONTH!!) of the
year 2000 (BELIEVE THAT!). The exact location and time are TBA, but they have
phoned and asked if there would be any demand for a workshop in Vegas. Whadda
ya cats and kittens say to that!! I says, "HELLS YES, WE DEMAND!!!" So, in
order for this gig to blow down we have to get as many folks to this workshop
as possible! Now is that too much to ask? NO!! I THINK NOT!!
In order for this to work, we have to get as many people to this workshop as
possible. So, what I say is that it would be absolutely kopasetic if you
SPREAD THE WORD!! D'you READ THAT?!?! Lay your racket, friends!! Don't be an
icky, put your glasses on and toss this note out to all your friends,
associates, partners, bed buddies, dogs, cats, birds, and what have you!!
Invite everyone you know who would be remotely interested! If we pull this off
on the 29th, Ryan and Jenny will be comin' back to Vegas in the future. We can
all make this work if we just raise the awareness of the workshop a notch by
makin' a phone call, sendin' out an e`mail (you can simply click "forward"), or
even write some snail mail! In fact, just yell it from the roof tops!!
If you live outta Las Vegas, you are MOST definitely invited to jump ports to
attend this workshop and don't forget, continue to SPREAD THE WORD!! In fact,
you're ENCOURAGED to pop into Viva Las Vegas for this workshop, considerin'
this could be the only Ryan and Jenny workshop of the year (according to Ryan).
They're figurin' to be busy for the rest o' the year because they're the
associate choreographers of the Broadway musical, "SWING!"
So, I know what you're all thinkin' . . . what's the line on this workshop
(or how much is this gonna cost? What's this gonna set me back?) Well, we're
lookin' at somewhere in the neighborhood of 6 dime notes and a nickel note, or
somewhere around the house of $65 on the load. That's for a 5 HOUR workshop.
5 HOURS?!?! GOOD LAWD THAT'S BANG FO' YO' BUCK! That's not bad considerin'
they usually pull close to a full bill, or 100 bucks, for workshops that don't
even last 5 hours.
Please let us know your interested in attendin' the event by droppin' us a
small note tellin' us so, and how many people in your crew are interested! You
can e`mail Andy at akeroles@aol.com, or myself at rudeswings@aol.com.
Now, for those of you who don't know who Ryan and Jenny are, put on your
scholar caps 'cause we're 'bout to go on for a small lesson. They're
considered to be the absolute best Lindy Hoppers in the world right now, and
their lindy instruction will take your dancin' to the next level, if not,
double your skill!! They wowed judges at the US Open and American Lindy Hop
Championships in 1997. In fact, the judges straight BLEW THEIR WIGS!! Ryan
and Jenny took the whole shebang!! They are champions of both events!! Ryan
was also involved as a choreographer and consultant in the filming of the swing
scenes in the Spike Lee film "MALCOLM X." He was also a choreographer for the
epic swingers' film "SWING KIDS." Ryan and Jenny have performed for just
about everyone in the swing world as well as distinguished audiences and now
are at the St. James Theatre in New York workin' on their Broadway Show
"SWING!" They were gracious enough to offer their experience based on an
offer, our friend Andy Keroles, made a year ago to bring them to Vegas.
So don't be square . . . dig this hype and lets kick this sucker off the
ground!! SAY "AHHH REET!!" and SPREAD THAT WORD KID!!
If you have any questions what so ever, you can e`mail Andy Keroles at
akeroles@aol.com or call (702) 796-9944, and if you can't reach him, you can
e`mail me, rudeswings@aol.com.
SL!M aka "SL!MOTHY"
Go Easy, Step Lightly, Stay Free, and Rock-steady!
