    Family sitting around the dinner table: "Honey, you'll never believe what happened on the L this afternoon..."

  • Chris Collins 2 years ago
    ha! I didn't have time to get "Put You in Your Place" on my ipod. I figured headphones connected to nothing would help me dance better.

    Christy,
    I'm trying to get someone at adm. to respond. no luck. cant seem to email out vids. system keeps saying "I have to share first." Do you know how to make this damn thing work? Thanks
  • christy gordon 2 years ago
    Hmm, I'm not quite sure what to do about that. If you are trying to send it out to people, I suggest just sending the link.

  • ryanpederson 2 years ago
    How did you time it so the song would end at one of the stops?
  • Pheasant Plucker plus 2 years ago
    Ha. That just happened. We didn't really think that far ahead.

    Very interesting Project, but does Davey only own one pair of pants? As he wears the same one's in all of the videos that I have watched. Is he doing this for continuity of Character? Hope he washes them once in a while. Good job looking forward to future projects. How about the leader of the laundromat?
  • nshack 2 years ago
    Hey if you can dance in a pair of pants, then you better stick with what works.
  • Pheasant Plucker plus 2 years ago
    I pack light. But, I am 32x34 if you feel inclined to donate to the cause.

    i like amir cohen's move on the pole at 1:18. this is my favorite davey dance blog so far :)!
  • Jane Marcus 2 years ago
    agreed. i am impressed with his dancing actually! second favorite part: the quick and forceful escape from the limelight made by guy in red shirt at 1:08
  • Skyler Hurt 2 years ago
    Lol. jake!
  • Jane Marcus 2 years ago
    ugh. its really embarassing now, being a fan of jakeandamir, to look back and see that i referred to him as "guy in red shirt."
  •

    so much fun.

  • fabiantoepel 2 years ago
    fantastic would have loved to see some other people reactions before and after the others joined in..
  •  
  • abteen 2 years ago
    This was great. These are too good to just be armed with a Canon Powershot! I wanna see some high quality dancing videos.
  • Pheasant Plucker plus 2 years ago
    Part of the rules i have given myself on this project are to only shoot one take, not to cut, and to shoot on this tiny camera. It also makes it easier to shoot many of the dances, which have, for the most part, been spur of the moment.
  •  
  • george hilbish 2 years ago
    what equipment? I see canon powershot. did you use it to do the video in vid mode on the camera? I am playing with a flip video and concerned over the image quality. your image quality is higher. get back to me. thx
  • Pheasant Plucker plus 2 years ago
    640x480 15fps on a powershot 600
    that's it.
  • Khamis Hammoudeh 2 years ago
    Woot woot, the SD600 rocks. You should try 30 fps if you've got the card!! For more spinning action. :)
  •  
  • kateconnor 2 years ago
    this was so great. i wish we could have seen the reactions from the other people on the train. that seemed like a long time between stops, huh?
  •  
  • Wavewash 2 years ago
    Did the camera man get out before the door closed at the end? We see Davey pry the door open at just before it cuts.
  • sanddunesandsea 2 years ago
    haha, oh yeh! i always forget about the person filming.

  • SaraLily 2 years ago
    i would love to see a bit of the original video file. like without the song over it. so we can see what the people on the train saw. thatd be cool.
  •  
  • DrPiranha 2 years ago
    Amazing! Hahah!! No other passengers joined in?! They have no sense of fun, I would have spastically joined the madness.

    This was on a NYC train, and you no gun shots erupted towards your rhythmic throwdown? Even more amazing! haha.
  •  
  • huebschy 2 years ago
    Super funny, I want to sit (or dance) in a nyc subway again, right now!!!
