Dance Party at Point Point This Thursday, Feb. 5, 2015

Hi Party Dancers!  

  It's going to be more fun & frolic on the Point Point dance floor this Thursday Feb. 5, 2015.  This is YOUR INVITATION to join the party.  I'll play swing, cha cha, cumbia, tango, and many more - and of course - LINE DANCING!  Point Point will offer us dancers their delicious $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 about 50 dancers had a good time at "Animal Prints Night" and the 4th Anniversary Celebration of Thursday Night at Point Point Joint, featuring DJ Leo.  Ladies brought in lots of complementary food.  The following 11 photos tell part of the story.          (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):

"ANIMAL PRINTS" THURSDAY NIGHT AT POINT POINT JOINT (JAN. 29, 2015):

Here were some of the ladies who brought in extra food: Nene, Lydia, Nora, Nina, Rei and Merci.

Above it was Gloria and Nickie dancing to a night club 2-step.

Next to them, Medy and Florita were dancing.  Were they zebras or leopards?  I can't tell.

Josie and Romy (San Diego's Filipino Elvis) were also dancing the night club 2-step.

Lou danced in a leopard skin dress.  Above Lou was dancing with Tito to the same night club 2-step.

And, next to them it were Lito & Daisy.  Wow!  That's a night club 2-step move I'd like to learn.

DJ Leo, DJ Bing and DJ Mel who have DJ'd at Point Point for past 4 years prepared to blow out the Anniversary Cake candles.  (The guys were exempted from wearing Animal Prints.  DJ Mel & Susie had just returned from a visit to Italy.) 

We welcomed Larry and Divine who had not been to Thursday night at Point Point Joint in a long time.  Above they were dancing to a salsa.

Nedy and Art (a relative new-comer to Thursday nights at Point Point) were also dancing to the salsa.

As usual there were plenty of line dances.  However, the most unusual one of the night was several of the guys "dancing" Jumbo Hot Dog.

It was well past closing time but the cameras just could not stop.  So, the late-nighters lined up for a group photo.

  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 week's dance party on Thursday (February 5, 2015), Point Point Joint Restaurant, 916 E. 8th Street, National City, as usual will offer 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  February 5, 2015   6-10pm, DJ Bert

Thursday  February 12, 2015  6-10pm, Valentines Dance Party with DJ Bing Villafuerte, 858-610-7514

Thursday  February 19, 2015  6-10pm, DJ Bing Villafuerte, 858-610-7514

Thursday  February 26, 2015  6-10pm, DJ TBD


See you on the dance floor,
Bert & Edith

P.S. Other Notes: (1) These are really fun ballroom and line dance parties.  This is dancing in San Diego on Thursday nights - they are private parties, and this is your invitation to members of the email group to enjoy dancing in Point Point Joint Restaurant, a mere four miles from downtown San Diego.  While the dancing is continuous, there are dancers who are happy to give free dance one-on-one lessons during the dances, in case you don't know the steps of a particular dance.  Hmmm - I bet the simultaneous instructions while others dance make these, for example, great swing dancing lessons in San Diego.
