Dance Battle: Compete at People's Court, Round 7
Ever hear of Dance Battles? The first two individuals to respond (via comment) with (1) a brilliant definition of "dance battle" and (2) some historical background on where these first originated, will be the lucky ticket winners to a spectacular dance event Saturday night (oh, Tonight!).
You must have heard of those civil dance-offs that peacefully and eloquently settle street conflict through the pure exposee of dance skill. I'm so impressed with these as they culminate so much technique it is simply an overload of dance class, talent, gymnastics, speed and flexibility so rare in many a dancer I've met. It is simply inspiring. Here's what I'm talking about, click for more...
I've got a spectacular event that happens only once every month. Tomorrow night is Round 7 of the 2on2 Dance Battle which has been going on for months now! Month after month you can spectate Vancity's finest dance groups battle each other for a chance to win stone cold cash! But wait a month, this is now.
DETAILS:
Battle is at 10:30 PM
There are 4 Crews each month, 2 people per crew
There are 2 rounds each session. Then Finals.
Music is by varying Djs.
Dancers must perform a 1-2 minute choreographed routine or freestyle, Hip hop, bboys/bigrls, krumpers, poppers/lockers, jazz, salsa and tap-dancers.
My favorite is:
The audience decides who wins the CASH PRIZE OF $200!
Best of all, you can stay for the evening afterwards, as DJ Jin & Juice, Pivot, Alibaba, and Hustle rip it up with the best in hip hop, r&b, crunk, raggaeton and oldschool!
Drink Specials:
2.75 rum & coke
3.25 tequila, china white, sex on the beach, baja rosa
4.25 Corona

I'm gonna go with "dance battle" is similar to a "Walk Off" wherein two, or more, competing groups of people (or people) compete to prove worthiness within their own specialty. in this case, it's Dance. And that means two groups, or people, will "battle" to find the best hierarchal winner - or, in other words, the best. the winner. the ONE. (if I win, I need three tix... there are three of us together with plans tomorrow nite. ;)
