American Bellydancer
Feb. 10th, 2005 01:08 pmThought some of you might be interested in a movie tonight at 8pm at the Regent in Arlington Center: American Bellydancer, produced by Miles Copeland of Bellydance Superstars fame/notoriety. Tickets are $10, and Amar Gamal is supposed to be there to introduce it, weather permitting. I will be there for sure, as I am reviewing it for Middle Eastern Dance in New England. ( More about the movie... )
In other Bellydance Superstars news, I am overjoyed to say that I pre-registered for the July Amar Gamal and Rachel Brice workshops in July. Should anybody else reading this be interested, you can preregister by going to the Bellydance Superstars calendar, picking July, then clicking on the workshop links to get a popup window that will allow you to register. Supposedly there will be a hafli/show following the Rachel Brice workshop at which anybody who was in the workshop may dance. That would thrill and terrify me. Guess I'd better do it!
Stayed up way too late last night working on a belt base for my copper coin belt, but at least now I can say it's done. I was all in a panic because I couldn't find big hooks and eyes for the velvet part of the base, but then while working on it last night I realized that if I was sewing the coin belt directly to the base, then the coin belt's own clasps will work just fine. I'll just have to pin or maybe velcro the flaps of the belt closed so that they don't move around on their own.
Enjoyed Lost last night (watched after sewing). Poor Charlie. He's a very effective example of why being a junkie is bad. I still don't trust the dog at all--I somewhat suspect the dog of having tripped the alarm, though I could be wrong. Maybe the dog is on Locke's side. And maybe that's the side of good. Maybe. Also I think Jin knows that Sun speaks English. I suspect maybe he might too, at least a little. Maybe.
