Beatles Contra

7/4/2011

When we talked to Glen Loper, he mentioned that he'd been a part of the Beatles Contra on May 23, 2008 with Rick Mohr. Read all about it (and see pictures!) here.

This project has concluded as of mid-2013 (with an epilogue posted mid-2016) but we hope to see you soon on a contra dance floor! Meanwhile, head over to our Facebook page for upcoming techno contra events and other items of interest.

The 100+ Friday Flourish videos can still be found on YouTube.

I dance with abandon. I play with glowsticks. I look for music that is conducive to one or both. I play behind cameras. I write about all of the above. I'm based in Glen Echo's contra dance community outside of Washington, D.C., but I'm happy to go dance afield when I can. Lather, rinse, repeat. Always repeat.
