SpandyAndy was asked to make an appearance in
The Ryan Steele Show & Frequeency at Odyssey Nightclub tomorrow.

I met Ryan Steele through my brother Josh Rimer.
They made an hilarious spoof of the Mother Lover skit from SNL.

He messaged me the other day asking if I could dance at the start of his show Tuesday night.
I think I’m just dancing around for a couple minutes.
I’m excited for my first show at a bar.

Keep dancing,
Spandy

The number of people that show up at English Bay to see the fireworks is amazing. Thousands of people cover ever square foot of ground that offers a view of the sky above the water.

Spandy headed down to the bay to bust a groove. It was fun, lots of people smiling and grooving. Then the rain came. The lightening actually added a cool effect to the fireworks, but I had to stop dancing. I almost lost my boombox to rain before and I didn’t want to let that happen again.

Today I am off to Surrey to film another little segment for Punjabi TV. I’ll be rock’en my new SpandyAndy gear. Maybe I can pick up some fans from Bollywood.

I’ll be at English Bay Wednesday and Saturday before the fireworks,

I got myself a serving job to help pay the bills. I only work once a week, Friday from 4:30pm – 8:30pm. Come to the Mongolie Grill on Cambie and Broadway and ask for The Spandy Special If you ask, then I’ll be serving you robot style.

The reason I wasn’t performing at the fireworks Wednesday was due to the appearance of somebody that has helped me groove all my life.
♪ S.N. double O. P. D. O. double G zee ♪

Of course I still tried my best to perform and have a good time with everyone. Check out some footage from Snoop Dogg’s concert last night:

I plan on being down at English Bay this Saturday for the S. Africa Night!

See you there,

Since I moved to Vancouver I have been going out dancing more. There are a lot of clubs to choose from and all kinds of DJ’s in town. When I go out, lots of people recognize me on the dance floor as SpandyAndy. I’ve been trying to think of a way I could bring Spandy into the dance scene. I’ve decided I want to wear Spandex shirts like Nike Pro or Under Amour and rock the spandex at the bars.

Last night I went to the Cellar Nightclub downtown and they had some wicked DJ’s in the house. The event was called, “EDIT breakBeat Culture”. The organizer recognized me from dancing around and now I’m talking with him about getting into the scene. He gave me a few shout outs through out the night and I rocked the floor.

I made my first nightclub SpandyAndy outfit. Check it out:

I had a awesome time grooving and plan on keeping it up!
Puuuuueace,

I had a pretty interesting Sunday. I ended up in a production studio promoting an English teacher from India.

While I was walking home from my performance at English Bay on Canada Day a man stopped me. He asked me if I wanted exposure and to be on T.V. Of course I told him YES and handed him my business card.

He ended up calling me back and asking me to meet him in Surrey on Sunday to talk about an idea he has. Then he told me how he was a professor and that he had friends in the production industry.

Once I arrived at his home, he introduced me to his new English learning CD. On the CD are songs like, “Past, Present, Future”. He played me the song he wants in his next commercial.
- Sunjay cleaned his room. Sunjay is cleaning his room. Sunjay is going to clean his room.

Next thing you know, I am in his car with him and his sons dancing to remixed 50 cent songs. We arrive at the studio and he tells me what to say. “Prof. Avtar S. Virdi is a good English Teacher. Today we are going to work on Past, Present and Future tense. I love it! Ready?” After 2 takes, we are finished. He drives me back to my car and explains to me that this Punjabi station is channel 118 and is nation wide. Then he asks me if I want to do this every Sunday.

I decided I’ll try it again, next time being prepared and having my name on my shirt so that I can become big in the punjabi community.

A few visitors from California were down at English Bay the day I was threatened and given tickets by the police. Nina actually captured part of the encounter on her digital camera and then sent it to me. Thank you so much Nina. Check out the video:

So after this happened I got worried. How can I continue to spread smiles and dance at English Bay with authorities like this? I had to fight back the only way possible, through dance/protest, lol. I quickly organized a Spandy Rally at English Bay and mobilized the troops.

The cops showed up a couple hours into the protest. They were welcomed with a loud Spandy chant. I had never seen these cops before. They asked me for my permit. After grabbing my permit from my bag and handing it to the cops, they read one of the rules on the back which states I must move my show every 60 minutes. I asked if I could move to another part of English Bay and they said, “YES!”.

The team packed up our stuff and moved down the path and continued the show. I am happy with that. Still interesting that I have to move down the bay, but if that is all I have to do, that is perfect. No tickets, no park rangers, no problems.

Thank you so much everyone who came out and to all my supporters. I am going to continue to perform at English Bay now that the cops confirmed it’s ok, as long as I move every 60 minutes.

As for the tickets… I’ll see you in court.

The people have the power,
SpandyAndy
