Some More Info
Hey All!
Here's some more info for the moment of truth!!
The Roller Derby game is being held at the UIC Pavilion. Here's a map: http://maps.google.com/maps/place?cid=8033567808252773288
-The game starts at 6 pm and the doors open at 5 (we advise getting there before 6)
-When you get to the box office, keep your eyes peeled for the Cheetah Mural. (the same poster that is in the original youtube videos)
-You'll be receiving your tickets from whoever is stationed next to the Cheetah Mural as opposed to getting your ticket from the normal box office.
-Remember, the password to get your ticket is AUNT CAROL.
-After you get your ticket, go inside and we have reserved section 107 so when the mob happens, ya'll be coming from the same spot.
-There's two half-time shows. The first half-time show will be around 6:45 and is JUST Erika and Kyle, so stay in your seat, or get popcorn and enjoy our danceage.
-The second half-time show is around 7:45 (??were not sure) and that's when the dance-athon will happen.
-put on your clean tennies, and make sure your shirt is tucked in to enjoy the ride fully.
- start easng your way down towards the arena
- the music will start and it will just be Erika,
-get your booty up and down to the PERIMITER of the arena floor (be repectful of the windy city rollers and other people)
-about 1minute into the dance the Windy city rollers will come in and we do a danc with them for about 1 minute
-then the music goes CRASH and the windy city rolllers squat down and bounce
_THIS IS WHEN YOU COME ONTO THE ARENA FLOOR, find your spot, about 5 feet away from your neighbor, an face front, front is where Erika n Kyle face at the beginning of the dance, and squat down and bounce.
- there is 1 minute of time for all of you to come in and find your spot n bounce.
The music escalates and escalates, then you rise up and DANCE YOUR ASS OFF!!
- you will be paying Erika after you dance! she will chase you with her sword if you dont!!
HAVE FUN, YES YOU WILL BE NERVOUS AND ALL OF US WILL, IT WILL BE A BLAST!

Buy Yo Tix!
Alright, so you've learned the moves, you got the threads, and you're ready to perform. You're thinking, "Just let me in!" Well, you gotta buy a ticket for that. Luckily, we were able to work out a discount for all you dancers. Instead of spending the standard $20 ticket fee, you only pay $13.50. Don't worry about pre-ordering your ticket. Just walk up to the box office and whisper the super secret password. What's the super secret password?
AUNT CAROL
To pay for your tickets, find Erika at some point in the game and swipe your card through her fancy iphone-matron or just pay with cash.

Welcome! Wanna dance with us? Then come to Chicago on March 10th! The Windy City Rollers have invited Erika and myself to perform a halftime show at the UIC Pavilion and an arena just doesn't feel right unless it's filled with a shitload of people. If you're down, stay tuned. We'll be posting videos of what the dance routine will look, specifics on where to go once you're at the UIC Pavilion, dress code, etc.
If you're interested or have any questions, e-mail Erika and Kyle at jiansworddancing@gmail.com. We will try to address any and all questions on this blog to make this the easiest and most fun dance experience you'll ever have.
