Wednesday Night Success at Lucky Star
Hello Dancers,
Wow!! I was impressed! I think most of the VIPs among San Diego's Fil-Am dancers were at last night's "Grand Opening" of DJ Jun Ancho's Wednesday Night Dancing at Lucky Star. Mid-week no less. About 50 dancers plus many others just eating. The dancers were looking good and dancing very well. The sound & songs were good. The ballroom was excellent. Powder on the floor by the stage - watch your step.
Who all was there?
Well, first of all the beautiful Jona was a wonderful sight for sore eyes when she greeted us at the door.
In the ballroom there was Bert & Lennie Velasco of the Dancesation from Infinity dance studios, Joe & Esta Velasco of the RMX group from the Studio FX, Dante & his leading ladies from Bay Terraces Fil-Am Seniors (Tooma Park), the leading ladies of Forever Young from Point Point, and many others including Roger & Fely of K-P Hall Seniors, and Ping of Gen. Trias.
Speaking of sore eyes, we wished Esta Velasco (line dancing in shades above) a speedy recovery from her recent eye surgery.
RMX's leading Zumba Dance Instructor, Lulu, was there. We reminisced about when I last saw her dance in Lucky Star - when was that? - Weds Nov 10, 2010!
The music: Ballroom of all sorts, including night club 2-steps like "I Want To Know What Love Is", hustle-swing like "What a Feeling" from Flashdance, rumba like "The Way You Look Tonight", west coast swing like "Fever", salsa like "Ave Maria Lola", cha cha, merengue, tango, bolero, waltz - and line dances of course - older ones like "Rumba Samba Mambo" and "S'Aimera" and many newer ones.
Here we see dancing hip hop to "California Love".
Wednesday night dancing with a Fil-Am flavor will continue at Lucky Star. Next Wednesday June 13th DJ Jun will spin the music, starting even before 6pm all the way to 9:30pm. DJ Jun made a point of saying he won't repeat the ballroom songs he played until July. Lucky Star Seafood Restaurant, 3893 54th Avenue, in shopping center at corner of 54th & University Avenue. Lucky Star Seafood Restaurant features a steamed lobster special for $13.95 on Wednesday nights. For Wednesday night dancing, a $6 cover charge and 1-drink minimum will apply.
