I've been to rock, pop, indie, jazz, metal, classical, reggae, salsa and probably any other genre you can think of, but never have I actually watched a dance act live on stage. People are looking more than a little perky and lots of blokes are dressed the same. It doesn't look scary. I'm not scared, anyway.
Someone orders a drink from the bar with a mask on and everyone grins.
3 Dry ice is blown onstage and synthy sounds begin. I hurry to the side of the room, bumping into everyone else, as they move towards the main floor. There's a nice vibe here, anyway, which is always nice to see. Tension' is a suitably titled opener. The audience are already dancing before there're even any discernible beats.
