Big Dance Party at Point Point this Thursday August 7, 2014 - with photos

Hi Dance & Party People,

  It will be another warm & wonderful dance party this Thursday night at Point Point Joint, August 7, 2014.  And this is YOUR INVITATION to join the  fun this coming Thursday.  The spectacular DJ Mel Zaragoza will be playing 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.).  So come on over - Party time:  from 6pm until 10pm at Point Point Joint, 916 E. 8th Street, National City.  

  Last Thursday July 31, 2014, about 35 dancers had a lot going on.  The big but SAD news was that DJ Mel's older brother, Pete Zaragoza, had just died and Mel was up in L.A. for the services.  Nina Anson led the dancers at Point Point in a moment of prayer for Pete and the Zaragoza family.  I was the DJ on Thursday.

  The nine photos below show some of the fun we had at Hawaiian Night.         (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):

THURSDAY NIGHT AT POINT POINT JOINT (JULY 31, 2014):

Hawaiian Night had lots of line dancing - half were between 6-7pm.  Above you see the "Blurred Lines" dancers.  Other ones I liked were "Carinito", "Aguardiente" and "It's So Easy".  "It's So Easy" was videorecorded and put on YouTube.   

Hawaiian Night attire was everywhere.  Three couples got prizes for Best Attire.  Above it was Bert Alota and Suzanne, standing with Edith.

Tito thanked everyone after he & Gloria got their prize.

The most brilliant prize winners were Eva and Dwayne - Eva was wearing flashing lights in her crown of flowers. 

Here several of the nicely dressed ladies posed.  Left-to-right:  Ly, Edith, Cora, Eva, Rima, Marilyn and Suzanne.

Jenny made one of her rare visits to Thursday night at Point Point Joint.  Here she was dancing with Nickie.  

Ruben and Rima had fun dancing the salsa, "Ave Maria Lola".

And I got to dance with Ly. 

TUESDAY NIGHT LINE DANCING 6 - 9PM

Nina's line dancing continues, now entering its 5th year at Point Point Joint.  Last Tuesday (July 29th) Bing showed new line dances to the eleven dancers above.


New YouTube Video - "It's So Easy" Line Dance.  The Hawaiian Night dancers looked mighty fine dancing to this relatively new (to us anyway) line dance.  click  http://youtu.be/XBFCwWXzYF4


  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 (August 7, 2014), 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.
