Well, yeah, basically. Other people can dress to impress; I *dance* to
impress! ;-) I'm all about action, not pose.

Well, I guess.
But think about it - there must be people who were *there* in the 50s,
and bought the authentic gear. It ain't gonna fit now, is it? ;-)

Well, yeah, there is that too... if I was actually interested. ;-)

Seriously?!
Well, by that metric, Pam and Lynn are way hipper than me!
(Also... they did this at Wellingborough, which was approximately 80%
empty at the time. So hardly necessary, eh? Probably takes a lot less
energy tho.)

Uh... no. Still, there are some things that dance school just doesn't
teach you. ;-)
