LAS VEGAS DISCO CLUBS...
"Dancing is not Dirty
unless you do it right" ...zeke
I moved to Vegas just so i could dance in the greatest clubs on earth. I have
been dancing since i was a little kid. To me, dancing is an important part of my
life. You could say dancing is my passion, and it is, second only to my passion
for beautiful women. Dancing is also a part of the mating ritual for many vertebrates, including
us humans (apologies to silicon lifeforms visiting this page.)
Although women are not aroused by images to the extent that men are, the
sexes seem to be equally stimulated by dancing. Dancing exhibits good DNA in terms of
bone construction, musculature, and, importantly, brain function. I am
convinced that many dance moves, and reactions to them are hard wired into
humans. Dance is also a tribal ceremony, and you will find ritualistic
entertainment packages in the better discos, for example E.D.E.N,
tuesdays at midnight at STUDIO 54, in the MGM. features "snake
girl" and a bungee dance to the story of the garden. Good dance music
follows the periodic timing of the various human appendages, getting connected
to the beat is simply a matter of waving whatever back and forth until, like a
pendulum, the movement becomes automated.
Pure
Nightclub in Caesars Palace was named the #1 club in the USA. It is easy
to see why, the HUGE space is separated into several rooms, giving an experience
that is closer to the intimate experience of a smaller club like
LIGHT instead of a
gia nt
stadium experience like RAIN in the palms.
The latest gallery from PURE is from the Paris Hilton CD Release Party on
Tuesday Night, August 29, 2006.
It will never be finished, but there will be some more soon.
LIGHT
NIGHTCLUB my favorite dance venue in the whole world. The
music is nonstop and ever changing, superb sound system. . Light is a very
small club; it is almost impossible to get in after midnight, especially
Saturdays. Sunday nights are always a special event. Ask your concierge about
passes.
The first time I heard about Pole-A-Palooza, i was expecting bump-and-grind
solo dancing. The kind i win prizes at. I was very
happily surprised to find,
ltwo years ago at Pole-A-Palooza 2. The contestants are amazing athletes, capable of
extending their bodies horizontally, and climbing to the top of a ceiling high
pole. I hope my
long-shutter photos help you feel the fluid motions of these world-class
acrobats as they compete for a $10,000 prize.
Pole-A-Palooza 4 photo database is now loaded.
The photo database from the Lingerie Beauty
Contest at LIGHT in the Bellagio is posted, more to follow. Photos in clubs are "slow flash"
mode, so you will see long trails and a frozen image for many shots. The lighting was
very strong, so the images have clear motion trailsThe movement in the photo at
right shows why i love a long exposure. What is not as obvious, is that i use a
slow (1/30) shutter on my HDTV camera to blur motion and prevent information
overload in the MPEG channels.
Drai's
nightclub is another one of my favorites, it really gets going late... 3:30 in
the morning. If you want to get in, go before the line forms. Drais is where
many serious dancers go to strut their stuff. The DJs from the other clubs like
to hang out there also.
