Boogying Down at Communiversity

If you weren’t completely stupefied by the obnoxiously blue skies or too drunk to peel yourself away from the Street yesterday, you might have caught a glimpse of this pretty legit flash mob smack in the middle of Communiversity festivities.

The dancers–all students from Westminster Choir College–successfully crammed the nine most catchy dance jams ever into just over five minutes of performance. There might even be syncronized fist-pumping to “Don’t Stop Believing” at 4:34. Hats off to the choir–it takes a lot of courage to “move your hips like yeah” in front of hundreds. And you make it look a little less awkward than us.

(Editor’s note: an earlier version of this post was mean, so we decided to tone it down. Sorry y’all.)

    This actually doesn’t make sense? You’re proud to be more awkward? What is the point of this article? I wasn’t even in it, but I was horribly insulted. There may have been a compliment somewhere in there, but I just can’t find it. All those kids worked countless hours, even though they all had terribly busy schedules, filled with concerts, performances, jobs, internships, etc. on top of the normal class responsibilities. I don’t understand why you would write such an insensitive article. This article goes against the entire concept of “communiversity”. Thanks.

    I kept hearing about this article so I decided to check it out…I was apart of this flash mob, and you’re right Craig, it was extremely difficult so thank you for what you said. I don’t understand how someone could criticize a flash mob. They’re about having fun and bringing people together, and that’s exactly what we did. Does everything in life have to be criticized so intensely .We brought this together in a few weeks and brought a lot of joy to people that day. You’re the only person I have heard say anything negative about the flash mob, so I guess I won’t let one wrong opinion bother me. Thanks for the press.
