Get rodeo ready, cowboy season's coming!

Spring is coming next weekend! The animals will be waking up, you should come out of hibernation too. First things first, peruse 38step.com and brush up on your dance steps, of course!

Atlantic City Rodeo

Rodeo &  Beer Festival coming to Atlantic City on the same weekend!
Now THAT sounds like a fun weekend! April 1 - 3, Atlantic City will be full of cowboys & beer. Suds & Studs & Spurs... ooh la la!
Rodeo tix start @ $16. You're darn right I'll be in town that weekend, actin' like a FOOL!

The first weekend in April, what kind of fool will you be?




Bally's Wild Wild West Casino - Oh how we would love to see them get some good line dancing events going! Hopefully the Atlantic City rodeo will kick up a little inspiration for their promotions department. All they need is a wooden dance floor and a decent DJ who is familiar with line dancing... someone to get the word out and viola.

Friendly Tavern reopened last summer.  It's an old favorite dancin' destination for many. Some yelp-ers said,

"Great country music with plenty of dancing.  Live bands are a plus.  So glad to have country dancing close again.  Great, diverse crowd with music for old and young alike."

 "Saturday we found this new spot about an hour's drive from NE Philly. Located in Carneys Point NJ, the newly reopened under new management, Friendly Tavern sure lives up to its name is worth the trip"

 "The lights are dim, Beer is cold, and the Music is Loud! Line dancing was the Deal! The crowd aged from Mid-30's to 70 years old. I'm Sure this place is going to be a Hit! "

djharry2189 has a few videos from Friendly's. The Friendly Tavern has its perks and its drawbacks but a must-try for post-rodeo rowdiness. Which leads me to...

Cowtown Rodeo - Every Saturday Night 7:30 PM
May 28, 2011 - Sept. 24, 2011

Dig out your kickers 'n wranglers, order a new white dress (so excited they're in this season), and plan some nights out! Do it up like us gals did in "Line Dancing, Concert Tix, The Rodeo Song (sans the music, poetry, art, singing, rhythm, humor and sound) ", grab a grill & some beverages (Cowtown Rodeo lets you bring in a cooler), and assign your designated driver (it's a long walk)... party it up rowdy rodeo style!

Yeeeeeee...haw

Line dance girl gets her toes out of the sand

... and back in my boots =) 

Howdy,

It's been a busy spring & summer. Perhaps I personified Terry Clark's song, "I Wanna Do It All", Zac Brown Band's "Toes" and Craig Morgan's "Redneck Yacht Club'". I think Keith Urban said it best... "Days Go By".

I took some road trips, went to some baseball games, and took some down time at the beach. It's been a great summer missing only one thing, large quantities of line dancing!

Getting back in the swing of things, I'm sure you've heard Prospectors has been closed through July & August for renovations. They have been working all summer to get the club back in proper dancing order come  September. They're making the dance floor larger [yesss!!!] and rearranging the layout to better accommodate our needs. We look forward to getting back to some 'pros' dancing when they reopen.

In the mean time, good ol' Friendly Tavern in Carney's Point (Rt. 40) celebrated it's grand reopening on July 17. It's a great place with a slick floor to dance some Two Step & Shuffles on a Saturday night after the Cowtown Rodeo! Friendly Tavern does country music Weds. - Sat. night. They're big on Two Stepping & Shuffling and slightly less focused on line dancing than other local venues. If you haven't been there lately, it's worth venturing out!

We went out last weekend to Friendly's and I heard that Kathy Mattea tune "455 Rocket". Let me tell you how I couldn't have cared any less about what dance they were doing, I WAS gonna learn it. They were doing The Scooch choreographed by Jo Thompson. Easy to pick up, I had the dance down by the end of the song. Cool dance, awesome song.

Dancing on Sunday?

There's a new place to go country line dancing on Sundays in Bellmawr, NJ. The Stardust Ballroom holds a dance every second Sunday of the month with DJ Pat Gould. I hear some dancers venture out all the way from Cape May for some quality dancing.  I heard they have the largest floating hardwood floor in the tri-state area.

Stardust Ballroom
Bellmawr, NJ
2 - 6 pm every second Sunday
(Lesson at 2:30)
Admission: $7

Love live country music

Luck with the concerts lately... not so much. Let's start with the Gary Allan show on March 5 @ the House of Blues in Atlantic City... we were going to get some tickets at the door - SOLD OUT. We heard it was a great show too.
Then... last weekend to go see Eric Church at Prospectors & oh yeah, SOLD OUT. What the heck?!
So this week I was listening to Cat at work and heard "Caller number 7 wins Josh Turner tickets" and I started dialing, and it rang ~ yipee!! It was great to win tickets after my good run of bad luck. I feel lucky, really lucky. Can't wait for the show! Josh Turner has the sexiest voice ever ;)

Speaking of live country music...

It's a fundraiser where the proceeds benefit the families of deceased and permanently disabled law enforcement officers. $10 in advance, $15 at the door. $2 drafts, 6pm doors open, 3 hour buffet. A night out & a good cause all in one...

NJ Line Dance List {Refreshed}

After 11 years of line dancing in South Jersey, I've learned quite a few dances. I thought it would be useful to make a regional list of the dances I've both learned and seen in NJ. It should help anyone looking to learn a few dances that are done in the area. You can look up line dances - and find TMI! There are hundreds, maybe even thousands of line dances you can learn but where is the fun if no one else is doing them where you go?

Note: Adding the steps & videos takes quite a bit of time so here is my line dance list in progress. I'll republish it as I add links to new step sheets with videos. Feedback is welcome!

When the lyrics to the song say "now vine" that is what you do. After beat 30 you complete the slow applejacks then ½ the double time applejacks, then you vine. Then you restart on the music with the right vine
