Thursday Night Dance at Point Point Joint (Aug 13, 2015)


OK Party People,
  We'll be dancing up a storm again this Thursday night at Point Point Joint, August 13, 2015.  The incredible DJ Nickie Bascos will be playing swing, cha cha, rumba, and much more - and of course - LINE DANCING - which has been non-stop from 6-7pm lately.  This is your invitation to join the party from 6pm until 10pm at Point Point Joint, 916 E. 8th Street, National City - five years of fun at Point Point may be all over at the end of August.   

 Last Thursday August 6, 2015, thanks to nearly ten first-timers over 40 dancers enjoyed the music of DJ Bing Villafuerte.  The seven photos below to 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):

THURSDAY NIGHT AT POINT POINT JOINT (AUGUST 6, 2015):

There were plenty of line dances, including non-stop from 6 to 7pm.  Above, energetic early birds danced to a relatively new one, "Ballo Con La Luna" with Nora and Elsie in front.



We guys preferred the ballroom dances, like one of my favorites, "You  Never Can Tell" boogie.  Above, Dolores and Tito danced to it.



At the same time, there was a rare sight:  Nina was a ballroom DI showing first-timer Robert how to boogie.  



Around 9pm "Uptown Funk" line dance packed the floor, with Elsie and Suzanne in front. 



"Bachata Risma" line dance always packs the floor.  I saw Dolores, Gloria, Medy and Lou dancing it in the photo above. 



A few minutes later I saw Suzanne enjoying dancing the rumba "Cada Vez" with Bert Alota. 




Everyone was energetically enthusiastic through the very last dance.  In the photo above, Nina, Gloria and Dolores were in front making a turn while dancing to "Heaven Must Be Missing An Angel" just past 10pm.


 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 (August 13, 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 three weeks at Point Point:  

Thursday  August 13, 2015  6-10pm, DJ Nickie Bascos, Jr., 858-775-0139

Thursday  August 20, 2015  6-10pm, DJ Bing Villafuerte

Thursday  August 27, 2015  6-10pm, DJ Bing Villafuerte.  CARIBBEAN NIGHT. This will probably be the LAST THURSDAY NIGHT AT POINT POINT DANCE (boo hoo).  There will be prizes and (in addition to Point Point's $10 special) lots of complimentary snacks and food.  Wear island attire.

See you on the dance floor,

P.S. Other Notes: (1) These are really fun ballroom and line dance parties.  This is Thursday night dancing in San Diego - 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 one-on-one dance lessons during the dances, in case you don't know the steps of a particular dance.
