WELCOME, SUMMER: Moon Dancers on Alki

Right after summer’s first sunset, Moon Dancers appeared on Alki tonight, twirling their way along the beach.

We got the advance alert from Denise, who explained that she and some friends created the dance for this year’s virtual version of the Fremont Solstice Parade, and they “had so much fun doing the shoot that we decided to do a guerrilla performance at Alki on the Solstice.”

(If you missed the Solstice Parade when it was livestreamed Saturday afternoon, the video is archived here – you can see the Moon Dancers at 1:09:30.)

That’s beautiful. I wish I’d known they were there.

I’m guessing that is why it wasn’t announced, so there wouldn’t be additional crowds.

  Yes, that’s what they said. And it wasn’t a performance in a fixed place – they literally danced along the beach, starting on the promenade and heading east along the sand!

Cool! Love the idea of “gorilla performance”.

Wow! This is very cool! Thanks for sharing.

Nice. Reminds me of ‘Outlander’. We need some magic in our lives right now.

Glad the moon dancers had face coverings.

Finally! Proof. The Aliens have arrived. Maybe that’s why we’ve all gone mad. Part of the plan to conquer the world. Except of the “autonomous zone”. Not allowed there.

How spectacular! Such creativity. Wish I could have seen that in person.

Funk to funky…

How wonderful they did that! What a fun surprise for the people that got to see it live. I looks like everyone was really enjoying the performance. If they are looking for more people to join them next year, I would like to join in the fun. ;-)

Sorry, comment time is over.
