Last weekend I tried – unsuccessfully – to step outside my comfort zone at the Pajama Jami-Jam Dance Party at 412 Market.
As the name suggests, sleepwear was the recommended attire for the Jami-Jam, hosted by GhostPlayer, the guys who put on last year’s Sexy Christmas Party and Zombies: a Dance Party.
To some, dancing in your jammies probably sounds like a lot of fun, but I can’t dance without injuring those around me, and I have no sleepwear to speak of (my negligee was out for retailoring).
Nevertheless, I’ve been in the world of rock and folk music too long. I was determined to expand my horizons, even if I ended up looking foolish.
When I arrived, I took my place in the snow at the rear of a long line of shivering, scantily clad girls and guys wearing boxers or pants made of thin, printed fabric. Several bursts of frigid wind later, I stopped regretting wearing jeans.
