Flash mob dancing outside Dublin's Central Bank

Can you spot Ellybabes, Niamho, Ian or me dancing outside of Central Bank on Monday afternoon last?



It was brilliant fun and fair play to the Performance Corporation for organising it. Thanks also to Liana who was a wonderful dancing partner and instructor!

Be part of something special in Dublin next Monday

Do you remember I blogged about flash mob kissing in the Ilac Centre last year?



Well, the people behind that - Ireland's Performance Corporation - are looking for participants for what they're calling Theatrical Expression as part of the St Patrick's Festival.

Their Facebook Group Page is here.

If you're available to be in Dublin's City Centre from 4 - 7pm on Monday March 16, all you need to do to get involved is to
text YES, plus your name to 087 050 7840 or send an email to info@theperformancecorporation.com.

You could be part of something as beautiful as this was.



You never know, you may even get a snog out of it. (Snog not guaranteed!)

The public react to the Liverpool St T-mobile ad dance

Love the woman at the end "I was in a bad mood when I come 'ere, I'm in a good one now."


Don't know what they're talking about? Check this out.

Flash Mob dancing, Liverpool Street Station, Thursday morning.

So you're in London on the way to wherever you're going at 11am on Thursday morning, you're in Liverpool Street Station and suddenly this happens...


It's definitely worth seeing the high quality version.

It's the new T-mobile ad, with slogan Life's for Sharing.

How the hell did they do this? How did they get it done? Irish advertisers, the gauntlet has been thrown down to you. Heuston Station next, perhaps?

Flash Mob kissing in the Ilac Centre

This is a lovely video. Last Saturday as part of the Dublin Theatre Festival, a group called the Performance Corporation puckered up and gave Dublin KISS.

"The ILAC Shopping Centre in Dublin city centre came to a standstill when unsuspecting shoppers witnessed a mysterious outbreak of kissing couples in the main concourse. To the haunting sound of the song “Llorando”, bystanders watched as apparent strangers came together, drawn by some strange emotional force and began to kiss.

The best thing was some of the passers-by joined in!

Then, as quickly as it had begun, the kissing couples parted, melting once more into the crowd."

Almost 100 people were involved as part of the performance, apparently, though they didn't know what they'd signed up for until lunchtime on the Saturday where the performance would happen and what it would involve.

Judging by the reactions of some of the crowd and participants, it doesn't seem to have been an altogether unpleasant experience, though the reaction at 1:45 speaks volumes.

More kissing in Dublin needed, eh?
