SpandyAndy probably had one of the most amazing weeks of his life. Danced in Toronto and Seattle, won two BIG awards, and was asked by Vancouver Biennale to perform right near English Bay.

As many of you read, I just became Canada’s Freshest Dancer! I think it’s the perfect title for me. I don’t have a particular style of dance, but most people would characterize it is FRESH! After all, SpandyAndy puts the MINT in entertainMINT and that’s FRESH!

Some of you might have missed it in all the craziness, but I was voted the 2nd best local dancer by the Georgia Straight. I’m coming up to the end of my first year in Vancouver and I have to say it has been the best year yet. Thank you everyone who took the time and voted for me!

When I got back from Toronto I met up with an old friend and headed to Seattle. She wanted to go shopping and I wanted to perform SpandyAndy in the U.S.A. I actually planned the trip long before I knew I would be competing in Toronto. I ended up performing SpandyAndy at Pike Place. Here is a little bit of my performance. I didn’t put out a hat or anything, but still ended up with 5 bucks… AMERICAN. lol

As soon as I was back in Vancouver it was time to promote my Dance Party. I went out everyday downtown and danced around handing out fliers. My friend Maria Simpson made some awesome posters and fliers for the event, so I had to use them.

The Dance Party was super fun! Lots of TIGHT and BRIGHT people under one roof. Once the DJ’s arrived and started dropping the 90′s hits, everyone was grooving. It was nice meeting and dancing with everyone. Then it was time for our opening act. I met Sarah Louis-Jean on So You Think You Can Dance Canada. She has a really fun performance that I new my fans would like.

I was pretty nervous for my performance. The club doesn’t have the random bystanders walking through my dance floor. Thanks to some moves and Spandy’s Dandys everyone loved the performance. I had asked for backup dancers through my site and some girls really stepped up. They had awesome energy and outfits and really helped with the party. We even ended up dancing out in the streets together. Thanks again Lena, LP, and T-Smoke. I’ll be uploading some video as soon as I can.

Now it’s time to continue my work on SpandyAndy. I met with photographer Bruce Bachland who shot my Colgate pictures today. We are going to be working on a 2010 SpandyAndy Calender! Full of all the TIGHTEST holidays, BRIGHTEST spandex and grooviest pictures. I’m also going to be training for the Olympics. I have to get ready for international exposure. It’s time to shock the world!

Stay TIGHT,
SpandyAndy
