Pay No Attention To That Man Behind The Speakers!

It happens every so often and I just laugh. A woman is out on the dance floor dancing with her friends and what not and somehow there is a wardrobe malfunction. Whether that be a simple slip of the top or the dreaded “wedgie”. What to do? Excuse yourself from the dance floor and potentially miss out on some good dancing? Nope. Have your friends encircle you quickly so you can make the necessary adjustments? Nope. Instead you turn your back towards the anonymous DJ and retrieve your upward creeping undergarments or face him straight on and take care of any slippage. Sounds like a good plan the only problem is that there is a (happily married)heterosexual male right there and he is bound to take notice of something like that happening in front of him.

Another more innocent thing to be aware of when dancing in front of the speakers is that when you talk to whomever is close by you need to raise your voice to be heard over the music. There is a very good chance that the DJ is going to hear what you say because being behind the speakers he or she doesn’t have the music to compete with. I only use that to my advantage. For example, if two people are out on the dance floor having a good time and one says to the other “it would be so cool if they played song X next!” Having heard that, I can quickly adjust things and have that tune come on next much to the delight of the dancers. There have also been times when a conversation is had on the dance floor that I hear and there is no way that I could ever repeat to anyone. It’s like dancer / DJ confidentially.
