A Viennese Waltz is generally between 150-180 beats per minute, so nirvana is well within this range. Although 160 bpm might be too fast for the typical social dancer, but it is easily done by more advanced dancers. Nirvana does have a 6/8 feel to me also. Just listening to the major beats and counting them 1 - 2, one hears a lower toned accent on 1 and a higher toned accent on 2 (bass guitar I'm guessing). In between each of these major 1-2 beats you can hear a definite 1-2-3 triplet which says the dance is a Waltz. (The triplets can be heard much better with ear phones on.) International Viennese Waltz, which, in contrast to American Viennese Waltz is done totally in closed hold position, has a rather 6/8 feel in the foot work and body action. I do a different foot work for the first half of the box (counts 1-3) than for the second half of the box (counts 4-6). Plus on one half I am the active partner going strong around my partner and in the other half I am the passive partner letting my partner come strongly around me. The 6/8 feel of Nirvana really makes me feel this action in my body. A Slow Waltz has a different technique and a different feel. It has much more strong 3/4 feel. Ahh I get it! Thanks for the explanation :D A good description of slow Waltz music versus Viennese Waltz music can be found under the International Waltz & Viennese Waltz links at: www.ballroomdancers.com/Dances/Default.aspThe difference in footwork between the 2 dances can be seen by comparing the links for the man's or lady's part of the "Reverse Turn" on each of these pages. |

- When Adam performs at Royal Albert Hall, is he performing with his band?
Yes, I assume the band will be with him. Although, it appears that Reyna is not going to London. From her tweets, I gather she did not get her passport on time. :-/[/quote]
Wow. Lots of drama from the Vajayjays. Must be so hard to miss that opportunity. Do we think there will be a new singer or will they go with just Keisha?

isabellepitre.tumblr.com/ I just want EVERYBODY to know how of a nice human being Adam Lambert is. I’ve never met an artist so genuinely sincere and generous with his fans. and beliebe me I’ve met a few. It was a real pleasure to be a part of the team who put that promo day together.
Congratulation Adam for all your hard work. its paying off.
Very thoughtful of her to post her thoughts! . ;D ;D ;D |

Probably shouldn't judge, but not paying extra to expedite one's passport, seems a little irresponsible to me. Keisha was packing, so I assume she is going. The rest of the band has been very quiet! No clues from them! They are getting so good at keeping secrets! |

Couple of questions since I have been out of the loop as of late. - When Adam performs at Royal Albert Hall, is he performing with his band? - Does anyone know when the NCOE video will be released to iTunes. Thanks!!!  No i-tunes date :( And I wnat this video so bad!!!!!! Yes, I assume the band will be with him. Although, it appears that Reyna is not going to London. From her tweets, I gather she did not get her passport on time. :-/ theosgma, what does she say? I don't follow the band on twitter. A passport can take only 24 hours to process. I hope these gals aren't more of a headache for Adam. Didn't one have to be replaced because she was too heavy to do the arm movements? I may be completely misreading what she said though. eta: jinx mys*&@^#r |
