Dance Party this Thursday Night at Point Point Joint May 1, 2014

Attention Fun-Lovers,


  Boogie on down to Point Point Joint this Thursday night for a joyous dance time with DJ Mel Zaragoza from 6pm until 10pm.  We hope to see you there.  This is your invitation to another fun-filled Dance Time Party 6 to 10pm. DJ Mel Zaragoza will play swing, cha cha, cumbia, tango, and many more - and of course - LINE DANCING!  Point Point will offer us dancers their fabulous $10 dinner special which includes a soft drink.  (More details below.) 

  It looks like it will be "Mexican Night" on May 8th Thursday night at Point Point Joint, with complementary snacks etc.  

  30 dance-party people showed up last Thursday (April 24th).  I think the highlight of the night was a birthday celebration forLita.  And, DJ Mel kept the party-goers dancing from 6 to 10pm with some great music.  Here are eleven photos from the April 24th Dance Party:    (Note: If the following photos do not appear when you look at this email, click the words at the top of this email that say something like "Show images which are still blocked to protect your privacy" - I already know who you are):

Here's Romy dancing to the cumbia "Desvelado" with Marilyn.  Some months ago Romy had brought to our attention that"Desvelado" by Bobby Pulido is a great cumbia dance song. 

DJ Mel and Susie were also having fun dancing to"Desvelado".

My goodness!  I think everyone was.  DJ Dwayne and Eva were also dancing the cumbia.

Line dances were in abundance as usual.  Here we see line dancers enjoying "Bachata Risma", one of the relatively new line dance favorites, with Edith, DJ Dwayne and Estrelle in front.

Around 8:30 we sang Happy Birthday to Lita.  Here she is cutting the cake.

And then Lita was congratulated by Edith R, Florita and Nedy.

Meanwhile, Bert Alota was dancing with Suzanne to the many-year rumba favorite "Esta Noche" by the Sparx.

A while later, Jake and Florita were enjoying dancing to another rumba.

Towards the end of the night, Marilyn and Bert A were dancing a tango.

Right around closing time, I spotted Ly dancing a disco swing with Hector.

Well, it seemed to take the whole night for Nene, on her second Thursday night at Point Point Joint, to get up courage to try a ballroom dance.  But, on the last dance of the night, Jakemanaged to coax her onto the floor.  

  It's a fun dance party most every Thursday night at Point Point Joint with line dances and ballroom dances like swing including Manila Swing (also known as 4-count hustle or Philippine swing or Filipino swing), cha cha, night club 2-step, tango and much much more.  For this weeks' Dance Party on Thursday (May 1st), Point Point Joint Restaurant, 916 E. 8th Street, National City, as usual offers their special price of $10 for 2-entree dinner plus drink for Thursday Night dancers. 

  Here's the plan for the next few weeks at Point Point: 

Thursday  May 1, 2014   6-10pm, DJ Mel

Thursday  May 8, 2014   MEXICAN NIGHT  6-10pm, DJ Mel

Thursday  May 15, 2014   6-10pm, DJ Mel

See you on the dance floor,
Bert & Edith

Bert Alota and Suzanne danced a cute bachata in this photo.

A few minutes later, Lou was dancing a cumbia here with the venerable Bert Andrade.

Nickie was back, dancing a night club 2-step here with Lou.

Across the floor, Beth and Jake were dancing to the same night club 2-step.

Line dances were in abundance. Here dancing "Bachata Risma", one of the newer favorites, we see Florita and Edith in front.

The "Honky Tonk Twist" boogie got several people on the floor.  Lita was dancing here with Nickie.  

DJ Mel Zaragoza was playing a fabulous mix of music, and he still had time to dance "Hernando's Hideaway" tango with Susie.

Well, it was closing time but the dancers kept right on dancing.  Here they are dancing another new line dance, "Let's Mambo Together".
