But if you think I am trying to hype up how good the music was then just go to the videotapes that have been posted onhttp://greatdance.comand hear how great the music was. The dancing was great but in this case the reasons for you to go these videos are to hear the hot cuts that were played at the party that night, Lets go the Salsa video tape!

It had every thing,great music, great dancers, great venue, great food, free parking, great dance floor. What more can I say? The Djs Jose Rodriguez, DJ Elvira and DJ andy were incredible that night. The sound system was perfect and Sam Rodriguez even brought some congas and clave sticks. The place was rocking.

Thank you. Posted by Earl Rush at 10:10 AM - Permalink | Comments (0) Chemistry between the DJSDj Elvira , Dj Andy and DJ Jose Rodriguez are all stars in the salsa world in their own right. But together they become a salsero's fantasy. Three different styles but all three will have you dancing all night long. Their fans like their music and they like the person as well. All three Djs are very good dancers, now wether that helps them in a DJ Booth can be discussed at a later time. All three like to have a good time , none of the three are stuck up. The one thing that stands out about all of them is you never hear any of them talk a lot of smack on the microphone. Jose will make an announcement and give a shout to his people every now and then but he does not take all night telling people on the mic he is DJ Jose Rodriguez he knows everyone in the place knows who he is just by his music. I have yet to hear DJ Elvira say anthing on the microphone yet and a couple of times you will hear DJ Andy say Earl Rush is in the house beacuse we use to hang out in Chelsea's together and I was one of his boys other than that I never hear Andy say anything either. To get back to what this blurb is supposed to be about the chemistry between these three is great . Last year they were all in the booth together and they took turns rocking the house at the one year anniversary. The bottom line is game respects game and all three of these DJs have game and respect each other so I guess the answer is the chemistry is great between the three Posted by Earl Rush at 09:36 AM - Permalink | Comments (0) Divinos last nightI went to Divinos last night and as promied DJ Bruno and DJ MIke Morales provided hot dance music all night long. I had on a I was at the 2 year StuckOnSalsa Anniversary t shirt and a lot of people were asking me did I have one for them. I have some that I will be giving away tonight at the SOS event. I am so glad this day is finally here. Kelvin and I have been working like crazy to set this big event up. The deadline for registering for the All-Star Salsa cruise was yesterday. So we can get started on planning for next year's Cruise. I saw Rick Greenfield last night at Divino's. Rick is Kelvin's best friend and one of my best friends and alsi is the STuckOnsalsa correspondent in Atlanta . His lady Natalie Herrod came up for the party also and they felt good to get awy from the Atlanta scene for a minute and dance with different salseros and hear new music. DC's stable of DJs clave flor clave can hang with any city in the world. So any hard core salsero from out of town always loobes cominng here listenig to the music. I wonder did Doug Fox go out dancing last night? That guy is on a mission! Posted by Earl Rush at 09:21 AM - Permalink | Comments (0) July 15, 2005Interesting Beginner Class last night at Gold's GymI had a very interesting class at Gold's Gym last night. It consisted of 2 guys and 6 women. Doug Fox was one of the two guys in the class. He is on a mission to learn how to dance salsa and I think it was his fourth class in 4 nights in a row. He is improving rapidly on learning how to find the 1 in the song. Earlier in the the day we had a music listening class and he was able to dertimine where the 1 was in all the songs except for 1 house music song. The ladies in the class I think were ther just to be good sports because I recruited them when they left the before mine. It was good practice for the two guys because they each got to practice with 6 differnt ladies and practice is always good. I have one lady whose first class was on Sunday and she picked up everything in one class, the amazing thing about this was it was an intermediate class. I think she was just determined to pay attention and learn.

Posted by Earl Rush at 10:09 AM - Permalink | Comments (0) StuckOnSalsa awards are finally hereLast Year's Anniversary party and awards show turned out to be a very pleasant surprise. Over 450 people came to Fanaticos as DJ Elvira and DJ Jose Rodriguez had the place jumping all night long. This year with more categories and more award winners we are expecting an even bigger turnout. I have already confirmed that pepole from Los Angeles, Chicago , North Carolina, Va , Baltimore,Atlanta, New Jersey, New York, Philly ,Boston and of course DC wil be coming to the Anniversary salsa celebration. I have also think that there might be some un official shine offs between Jimmy Rumba from Atlanta. Betto Herrera from North Carolina Ronald Rios from Washingotn, Dc Orlando Machuca, Shaka Brown if he is in town and myself. It looks like it is going to be an interesting weekend. Posted by Earl Rush at 08:16 AM - Permalink | Comments (0) July 14, 2005I can't beleive it's been two yearsI cant beleive it's been two years already since StuckOnSalsa has been in existence. It seems jus like yesterday when we first started at Maxim's. We have been on one heck of a ride since then. This two year anniversary will probably turn out to be our best event yet. Tickets sales are going strong and everyone cant wait to dance this Saturday. A lot of people are excited about the awards show also. I am getting ready for South Beach tonight in Bethesda and ClubFive in DC . My class last night at George Mason had a great turnout for the beginners and intermediate classes.By the time I got to Zanzibar the crowd had died down . I was tired any way. I am always wondering why the majority of people who dance, dance off beat. I am going to do more investigating and find out why. I think people are going to be very happy with the facilities where the SOS two year anniversary will be held. Great dance floor, Great location and the most imoportant thing for all salseros FREE Parking Posted by Earl Rush at 09:20 AM - Permalink | Comments (0) July 13, 2005Wednesday morning July 14, 2005I spoke with Doug Fox this morning he said he might go over to Baltimore and check out Susan Leiter's class and open dance party at Club Uno. I will be doing a special beginner and intermediate salsa on1 workshop at George Mason University this evening from 8pm until 10pm . I will then go to Zanzibar and promote the StuckOnSalsa 2 year anniversary. Hopefully I can get some of the Students at George Mason to come to the party. It would be a great experience for them to see salseros from all over the country in one room doing their thing. Posted by Earl Rush at 12:39 PM - Permalink | Comments (0) People from all over the countryI did a roll call this morning of who was coming to the StuckOnsalsa two year anniversary and so far the cities and states that will be represented at the Anniversary celebration are Los Angeles, Atlanta, Raleigh and Charlotte North Carolina, Va Beach, Richmond, Newport News,Chicago, New Jersey, Philadelphia , New York,Boston and Miami.

Posted by Earl Rush at 02:17 AM - Permalink | Comments (0) Tuesday June 12, 2005I have not had to spend too much time the last week getting ready for the StuckOnsalsa Two year anniversary party and awards show. Kelvin and I have had everything straight for a while now, I for one will be very glad when this weekend is over. It's been a hell of a ride the past year and I am tired. We have been having events all year long. after this week I will be able to get ready for the Puerto Rico , Miami and New York Salsa Congresses . The party is on Saturday July 16, 2005 and Friday is the last day for someone to register for the cruise. So I will not have to worry about that anymore. Worked all day and then went to the Barking Dog where Mike Morales is always up there playing some slammin salsa . DJ Bruno celebrated his birthday there last night. Ty Sims brought a cake and Michelle Reyes had two cakes there for DJ Bruno also. DJ Bruno and DJ Mike EL Sonero Morales will be playing together this Friday night at Divinos . This is one you do not want to miss.The Barking Dog had a great crowd last night and the energy was high throughout the night. I took some photos that I will be uploading in a few hours Posted by Earl Rush at 02:03 AM - Permalink | Comments (0) Beginning of the weekMonday July 11, 2005 I worked all day, spoke with Doug Fox about some ways to shoot salsamentarty footage at the StuckOnsalsa two year anniversary party. I talked to Kelvin about 10 times in reference to the cruise which by the way is basically sold out and then went to the Clarendon Grill . Saw my old Rhonda Rose who I used to teach latin aerobics with in Silver Spring. She has been over in Thailand. The Clarendon Grillwas packed last night. It was Bruno's birthday at midnight. And he appointed me to be his designated dancer for his birthday dance. I was honored to be asked to fill the job. I was going to Lucky Bar to promote SoS Two year anniversary but I am too old to be waiting in a line at 1am at night. So i just went home. home to think of what new to put on www.stuckonsalsa.com.

The Richmond Festival was a blast and we were able to get Eileen Torres to interview the great band Conjuncto Imagem. DC was represented very well by Azucar Moreno composed of Janice Woodward and Kimberly Yates along with PsyonMauricio and Kara Cheatham. Saturday night I went to Keith Givens Salsa night at Glen Echo. It was a very interesting crowd mmostly of people I had never seen before which is always a good thing. Keth did a great job teaching the classes and putting on a great party. Worked wth Doug Fox on Sunday morning working with him hearing the 1 in the song. He has improved a lot since I stared working with him. I have let him to listen to all types of music . just last week I had him listening to Reasonable Doubts Jay -Z 's first album. He has his easiest time identifying the 1 in R and B music. Doug stayed for my class on Sunday and did great . He is progressing every day .

I am not kiding. Where does DC rank as far as markets? I cannot say for sure but I can tell you there are a lot of markets that are not able to make the 7 days a week statement. There is also not a lot of cities that can say they have a lot of dancers who dance equally well on1 or on2 like we have in DC for both salseras and salseros.

They had a nice wood floor to dance on and the music provided by Mike "El Sonero" was hot. They covered all bases by providing a separate floor for hip hop, merengue, reggaeton and some more music. The drinks were good and reasonably priced . the bartenders were very friendly and finding a space to park for free was not a problem. A lot of people were complaining about the air conditoner and how hot it was , but what do people expect when you have a bunch of people in a room having a great time and dancing all night, Hello it's summer time lots of people dancing in a room together is going to cause some considerable heat.Give me a break.!The crowd thet attended were very dancer friendly and did not have any hangups about what beat you broke on, they were there to dance and have fun. All in all I thought South Beach was great and if you are in the Bethesda area on a Thursday night I would reccomend that you definitely check it out.
