Ok peoples:
Heres some answers for now. More to follow as Jaki officially posts more details.
Last year we had Dances that ranged from 75 to 150 people in attendance. The bigger we make these the better! But they tipically are pretty big.
Sorry but we cant allow persons under 14. Its a liability issue and the directors are really adamant about it. Even with parent supervision we cant allow it unless we cut the age limit of the dance to 17 and under. Its for your safety.
When we put it to a vote a while back the winner was for an ANIME dance. We are talking about a mix of music of Japaneese nature. We want to do something of an assortment in hopes to please everyone some of the time. But we do have a live DJ so he is in control of the music we gave him some content from our Karaoke collection and he has some of his own, music will be up to his discression so dont be heartbroken if you dont hear your favorite anime opening song. Im sure there will be lots of recognizable music. We also plan on having a gaming area like the swing dance last year where you can take a break and play poker, or other casino-like games for prizes.
School Ids are acceptable
If you have a permission slip you do not need an ID. (Most minors dont have them anyways...lol)
NO live orchestra. Sorry, we have allready asked a 3rd party to DJ. It would be terribly rude to cancel now.
I think thats about it for now. Jaki will post the whens and wheres and price tomorrow.
*Also please remember that there is NO way we can make eveyone happy all of the time regarding the music and theme of the time. This is a headache we have to deal with for EVERY dance we have had in the past. If we do a ball dance, people complain, If we do a rave, people complain. But If you really think about it its a fun event for our otaku to attend and even it you dont dance there will be other things to do. Its gonna be a blast either way so why not check it out?*
