USEFUL INFORMATION FOR WESTERN EVENING EVENT ORGANISERS
Holding a WILD WEST PARTY, WESTERN EVENING or a WESTERN THEMED
EVENT is one of the best ways of solving your entertainment problem
if you have to cater for people of varying ages and abilities. The
ONLY form of Entertainment that can get IMMEDIATE AND INSTANT
audience involvement and FUN without any previous dancing
experience, skill or rhythm is a WILD WEST PARTY, WESTERN STYLE
EVENING or WESTERN THEMED EVENT.
A big
advantage of a WESTERN EVENING or a WESTERN THEMED EVENT is that
you get the ULTIMATE SOCIAL MIXING EXPERIENCE---simple and easy
Dances are generally used to encourage beginners and those who have
not been to a WILD WEST PARTY, WESTERN PARTY OR WESTERN THEME
event.
A WILD WEST
PARTY, WESTERN PARTY, WESTERN EVENING OR WESTERN THEME event Is
absolutely ideal for people who have little or no Dancing skills
because most of the movements are natural to all of us---like
linking your arm with someone else or holding hands to form a
circle, you see these things happening every day--- for example in a
School playground.
The Dances
movements used are often hundreds of years old and have been passed
down through generations, CONTINUING TO BE POPULAR because they are
easy to use, simple and fun.
LINE DANCING
or LINE DANCES are more modern and have their own steps.
LINE DANCES OR
LINE DANCING mainly involve Dancing on your own--HOE DOWN, BARN
DANCE AND SQUARE DANCES involve dancing in couples and in sets
ranging from 2 couples to 10 couples or more---in Circles, Squares
or Longways---numbers dont really matter as long as there are enough
people to fill up your Dancing space.
Each Dance
lasts around 10 minutes including a walk through by the CALLER to
learn the steps and changes---the WESTERN EVENT THEME EVENT can be
run for 3 TO 5 hours with breaks between Dances of around 10
minutes.
For longer
functions such as Weddings and Parties of 4, 5 or 6 hours you may
like the UNIQUE option of asking THE CALLER to play COUNTRY AND
WESTERN music from his collection of COUNTRY MUSIC----this is called
COUNTRY AND WESTERN DISCO.
As an
alternative or in addition other music such as Party and Disco
favourites may be included if required.
The
breaks between Dances allow you to get your breath back and
socialise with friends whilst listening to background music which
keep the toes tapping away whilst looking forward to the next Dance.
To ensure your
guests at the WILD WEST PARTY, WESTERN EVENING or a WESTERN THEMED
EVENT know what to do THE CALLER is your MC, Teacher and Instructor,
using his knowledge and experience to decide which Dances best suit
the audience as regards speed and complexity, CALLING out changes
in movements as they occur during each HOE DOWN, BARN DANCE, SQUARE
DANCE OR LINE DANCE.
When the
Dancers progress under the Instructions of the THE CALLER during the
evening to more complicated Dances never worry about remembering the
movements and changes---it is the job of the Caller to remind
everyone what to do--when to do it and who do it with! This is why
he will often politely refuse offers of large amounts of alcohol! If
he cant remember what to do---you have no chance!
The Music at a
WILD WEST PARTY, WESTERN EVENING or a WESTERN THEMED EVENT event
will be a very wide mixture depending on whether its background
Music like Saloon Piano Music, or Themes from various TV series or
films, moving to more lively traditional American tracks for the HOE
DOWN, BARN DANCE and SQUARE DANCE.
For LINE
DANCES or LINE DANCING American Country and Western Music is used.
The Music for
listening or Dancing is played either through a Sound System using
recorded Music or if your budget allows a Live Band is used.
A WILD WEST
PARTY, WESTERN STYLE EVENING or WESTERN THEMED EVENT can be held in
most locations.
Ideally
clothing should be reasonably authentic, check shirts and jeans
always brighten up the event as well as Cowboy Hats.
This then
allows the opportunity to present PRIZES to the best dressed
Lady/Gent OR Boy/Girl at the WILD WEST PARTY, WESTERN STYLE EVENING
or WESTERN THEMED EVENT in addition to a PRIZE for the Best Dancers.
For Dancing
Footwear should be comfortable to allow for twisting and turning and
dancing on less than perfect surfaces.
