sorry if this is in the wrong place, wasn't sure where to put this one.

So on Saturday and Sunday, we danced to Scream, Smooth Criminal, Dangerous, Remember The Time, and then Thriller (for some events). the dances have been tweaked, but for sure we kept most of Michael's dances true. e.g. scream has stuff the instructor made up on her own plus the real dance moves in the short film since scream doesn't have a long dance.

Saturday was the unveiling of the MJ mural @Pico Union. the Graff Lab
unfortunately I don't have video of it on youtube...it's on someone's facebook though...
somewhere!
I do have a pic of the mural

thriller--TTWLA taught some of the kids who lived around the community and taught them our version of Thriller. The videos are from one of the dancers..I'm just supplying them for you guys. (no sound unfortunately for this one)

I'm the one in green hair..
That event was somethin special b/c it was a community thing, it felt nice to entertain people and make people smile through Michael Jackson. You saw us dance, you heard Michael's music, kids were dancin to Michael. It was so nice to see them inspired.

mind you...we were given roughly a month to learn and practice these dances. it was pretty hard
I know I wasn't very good at it...as you can see, but boy when it can to Sunday, we looked really nice as a group.

That mural is frickin amazing!!!

Awww those videos made me smile!! I love seeing fans representing Michael in such a lovely positive way! He'd be so proud!

Those Smooth Criminal dudes in this video - scream-s.c.-dangerous-rtt
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8E_Qiu3fggM they were entertaining :lol: it's great!

Those videos of the flashmobs on Sunday - you just appear out of nowhere, all start dancing & shock the people surrounding you? That's so cool! I want to do it hahaha! I'd love there to be something like that where I live.

I was just watching the flashmob videos & thinking Michael would be so happy with you all.

Ahh the dot picture! I'm on there lol. Which person is the artist..? It's not complete yet is it?

The pop can thing is soo cool.

Thanks for posting all this & thank you for representing Michael so positively & showing those members of the public that he is loved & not forgotten.

BTW.. did you watch 'The Way He Makes Them Feel'?

haha smooth seemed the most popular--it's the easiest one to learn but the best looking one. my personal fav was dangerous though, even though I learned scream instead(the fastest=the hardest)

yeah we're part of thrill the world Los angeles...so we sort of do flash mobs sometimes, and this one was for sure...we act like we're shopping...part of the crowd..then we start dancing out of nowhere. it was hard to look normal though..people had their mj costumes/suits and hats on...the gloves..then we're talking to each other in groups...i'm sure some of the public knew some mj thing was goin' on. :)

no I didn't watch, but some of the dancers did. tons of fans were there to watch. I know they were also sellin dvds.

the dot artist is the man on the left, standing next to the portrait he's sort of in the back), he's in a regular hat..it's straw or something. :)

thanks for watchin the vids!

unfortunately, I don't have the thriller dance from the one in the picture. I have one where we did it w/ kids from the community on stage

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TYcqjfA4j-8

but it has no sound. :(



we did thriller at the regent thriller though & this one has sound. we did it on the sidewalk...so you can imagine how much space we were allowed. still fun though!
