Cabeceo between the guys


At last, a light-hearted video on dance-floor etiquette!

Take a look. You may recognise someone: The Over-Excited Follower, Mr Oblivious, Mr Show-Off, The Social Guy, etc.

But beware ... one of these people may just be you!


(Thanks, Nihada, for finding this gem.)

    This is a great video. Perhaps the most common thing that happens is the "over-excited follower." It is an epidemic in Washington, D.C. Right now I live in Germany, and it happens most of the time.

    I'm very pleased to report seeing fewer examples of the "social guy" here. Perhaps the previous offenders realised the anti-social nature of their behaviour and mended their ways. What a relief!
