I think they thought we were nuts but they did what we asked.MoChassidhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07698221923467813874noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7279035.post-28580114515569067812005-02-25T07:41:00.000+02:002005-02-25T07:41:00.000+02:00Lines are the least of it; people are doing the sa...Lines are the least of it; people are doing the same thing. It's the frenzied individual stuff that bothers me.<br><br>When we got married in 1970, even in NY, there weren't that many bands, so I was glad that my parents agreed to Mark III, the best NCSY band of the time. Considering that my parents aren't in "those circles," and I knew the band personally, I let them (and my in-laws) go without us to hear them. B"H they were impressed, also by the fact that they could play "ballroom" during "eating." So we had the most dancing wedding of the year!Batyahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09402874037427009327noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7279035.post-5314289930635354542005-02-27T19:05:00.000+02:002005-02-27T19:05:00.000+02:00I really wanted to get a band, but we ended up wit...I really wanted to get a band, but we ended up with a DJ.

It's only taken hold even stronger on the men's side too.<br><br>Everyone knows Jews dance in circles!Zman Biurhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05593492318098902028noreply@blogger.com
