Shag Frenzy is a terrible lover

I don't think that I can saturate my blood with enough ethanol to impair my ears and judgment to make me shake my hips to the shitty, shitty music that they play at shag frenzy. Dear, Shag frenzy DJ, you sir are owed a punch in the face.

yes, and after you impair your ears and decide to have a seat and watch the debacle of people shaking their hips, you will realize that all shag frenzy is, is the who's who of the fashion whores of the great dead city. useless.

I only meant to refer to the music, I just think that there is a difference between music that is passionate that also happens to be dance-able versus music whose sole purpose was designed to make you dance. If you just want to dance why not go to any night club and dance to whatever top 40 shit, there's nothing wrong with that. I just feel that the people that attend shag frenzy happened to be more cultured musically and that's why they go there. They did play some good songs, but when they play covers of songs that just have more bleeps and bloops in it, why not just play the original. Better yet why not play good music with bleeps and bloops in it already, or even better yet just play good music that rocks and maybe people will dance. I used to go to club hell in providence every week and dance and they just played awesome music, like Fugazi, Misfits and Duran duran, shit like that. Then they started to play "dance music" and people stopped coming and it started getting real awful till there was no distinction between that and any other club but the scene. Don't compromise is all I'm saying, when you know that everyone in the club wants to hear Hollywood Babylon or what have you.

Several co-workers keep telling me that I MUST go to shag frenzy, but not being much of a dancer and usually working on Saturday nights I have not been. I did once find myself at a party where many, many, many shag frenziers were (this was, apperantly, how they all knew each other) and my boyfriend turned to me at some point and asked why everyone was so stuck up.... I often wonder, in this Dead City, why so many "hip" people feel this need to be so chilly to people they do not know. I mean really, if you were that cool would you live in this Dead City? People often say that the positive thing about smaller cities is that people tend to be friendly... but not in D.C.

i think i am going to join amanda and go dancing at shag frenzy. but not only will she be bleeding out her wisdom teeth holes onto all the fancy people, she will be bleeding onto me as well. As some of you may not know, and some of you who do know me know that i am one of the biggest fashion whores in the greatest of the dead cities. The Dead City!
i am going to put mc hammer to shame when everyone sees my parachute pants. unfortunately my hair is not long enough for banana clips but we will figure something out, a perm maybe. oh and as for my top-- a heather grey cut off sweatshirt.
shag frenzy is The weekly eighties theme party after all, right?
as far as the music, i disagree with ken. i love the music! i find a comfortable familiarity listening to the music of my childhood. although what happened to NKOTB? and boys to men? and debbie gibson?
or best yet, Haircut One Hundred?

i've never been to this so called dance party. but in my opinion any dance party is made by the people who are there. it has almost nothing to do w/ the music, unless the music is completely undancable. and truth be told you should never even be thinking about the people around you unless they are w/ you and too drunk to stand up or are booty shaking w/ someone you know they don't know, or you're trying to get laid or whatever. what i'm saying is: fuck it all and just have fun, who the hell cares what people look like or how they are looking at you. you are just a silly little human. just like everyone else. oh and baltimore is the great dead city. well, actually detroit is probably the greatest of all dead cities.

Haha, this is getting way out of hand. Anyone that knows me knows that I always have fun with whatever I'm doing and that I am always dancing. I was just stating my opinion of the music that they played in a dramatic fashion, I guess. Which a good amount of people that I knew there agreed with, btw. I wasn't saying it wasn't fun, I wasn't saying that the people there sucked. I actually had a lot of fun. Just my opinion of the music, that's all.

shiiiite.. ya know... people take things so seriously... i just like fucking with people.. a lot of my friends go there... i've been there and actually liked the music. but really, i could care less about shag frenzy... like i said, i just like fucking with people. so if you really took my opinions seriously, then it's your problem. becuz, really, who cares what i think or anyone else thinks. its what you think that matters.
