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! 

Above we see dancers doing what?  Bachata?  Maybe samba.




  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. DJ Jun's contact number: 619-456-7581.  


Till then,
