Davey Dance-BLOG. A project started while traveling Europe during Spring 2007. Armed only with an ipod and a Canon PowerShot, Davey picks a location and a pop song. Then Davey records an improvised dance.

*This is the closest we ever came to getting arrested. A security guard in the back tried to stop us from dancing.
Also, this time we shot with an HVX instead of the PowerShot to try out vimeo's HDness

    Yes, I was just saying to myself: "Self, when is Davey gonna break out the Christmas Dance Blog" and *Poof* my Christmas wish was granted.

    I hate this song.

    You did not shoot this with a PowerShot
  • andre 3000 5 months ago
    Wow.
  • amy n. 5 months ago
    LOL, how can you not love this?
  • Kevin Mosley 5 months ago
    I do love the video and the people.

    I loathe Mariah Carey's music.

    Way too many painful memories.

    "You did not shoot this with a PowerShot"

    Uh oh, we have a tech-nazi in our midst.
  • Justus Zimmerly 4 months ago
    He does have a point. It is in high-def after all. I think the description is just copied from all the other Davey Dance blog videos which were shot with a PowerShot.
  • Elemeno Pee 4 months ago
    haha Why is everyone hating on Kevin's comment? The man speaks the truth. There's no way this was shot with a PowerShot. He has every right to not like Mariah Carey.


    And this video's awesome.

  • andre 3000 5 months ago

  • Patrick 5 months ago
    Awesome! Loved it. I was sitting here watching it, completely sold on it being a solo performance. Then out of nowhere, everyone joins in to dance. Best dancers blending in with the crowd Davey Dance Blog yet!
  • Loonachic 5 months ago

    A security guard tried to stop you from DANCING??
    Whats the world becoming, an 80s Kevin Bacon movie?
  •  
  • LANHO 5 months ago
    People are neurotic about security in USA. Now it is forbidden to dance? I guess if you were distributing flowers they would have tasered you!

  • Aziz K. 5 months ago
    you know, the only reason you guys are having this much fun is because you're stealing some of ours! that's gotta be the only explanation, because this is way more then the amount of fun average human should be allowed to have.

  • ignirav 5 months ago
    The dancers of this video they would have to be the men and the women than they organized the world. All will be better
  •  
  • Hah! Am I the only one who noticed Amir was in the background there in the beginning??? Check out about 29 seconds in on the right. He's sitting right there with headphones on. So funny
  •  
  • Kent McDonald 5 months ago
    yeah, that was what gave it away for me, too. When I saw Amir I knew this was gonna be a Times Square type group dance. I was almost breathless with anticipation waiting for them to join him. Great vid...

    Question: If the music is only in his headphones, what are the rest of the "bystanders" dancing to?

    And you're right -- this was not shot with a Powershot.
  • Pheasant Plucker 4 months ago
    they are listening on their headphones

    so ace! i think i dont stand alone when i say "i want to improv dance in the next davey dance vid." i feel the spirit of Chrismahanakwanzaka.

  • Kent McDonald 4 months ago
    Just askin...how do you get a dozen ipods synchronized?
  • Pheasant Plucker 4 months ago
    I say 1, 2, 3, Go. and then everyone presses play at the same time.

  • Mark 4 months ago
    I like how the tall guy in the grey beanie's ipod is like half a beat out. Give him respect because he's giving it dixie, but you can tell when he's jumping and clapping. I love it.

    These videos are great. I like trying to follow individuals through the whole thing.

    And Amir's staring-out contest with the security guard at the beginning = \m/

  • Young Park 4 months ago
    i sorta wished amir would snap into an amir character as he emerged from the background. also. i wonder how things would be like if you played it on a little stereo. if people would actually join in randomly. or a gigantic one.

    I think it's interesting that other people basically ignored you. Not even one "Who is this crazy man, and why is he doing an awesome lip dub in Rockefeller Square?"
    Yes, that was a semi-secret compliment.
  •  
  • arnel ilano 4 months ago
    Haha, that random dance number was unexpected. I thought it was just going to be a straight dub.

    Nice one.

    So did you know those people dancing in the back, or is it just people feeling the dance vibes?
  • Pheasant Plucker 4 months ago
    Yes, usually those who dance along in my dance videos are friends who are in on it.

    I actually spent hours skimming thru dance cities with you here in Vimeo. What an awesomely insane idea! An instant fav. This one looked glorious in hi-def. Next time in Amsterdam, give me a huller and I'm there. I'll take spare headphones for security guards to join in.
