“You are my love,” declared the gold-spandex-clad dance instructor during the lesson at Yonge-Dundas Square at Luminato’s big Bollywood finale tonight. The jam-packed crowd showed their love right back - by dancing along.
It’s like that nerd in Dazed and Confused once said, it seems Toronto “just wants to dance.” Of course, again there wasn’t enough room for anybody to really cut loose.
The crowd was really pretty mixed and the surprising thing was how many men were up for the brown version of line dancing.
If you missed it, or just didn’t get your fill, you’re in luck. With New York City’s DJ Rekha (playing with local great Gurpreet “the tabla guy” Chana) at Harbourfront’s Brigantine Room on Friday and Nitin Sawhney on Saturday at College St. club Revival, those wanting to get down with the brown still have some great events to practise those new moves.
