The flashmob that crashed

Learning the zombie shimmy!

More and more people gathered at Museumplein... it was very obvious that something was about to happen!

..in the end the dance got hidden in the thick crowd.

Not great shots, but they do tell a story. I was participating in a 'flashmob' performance today in Amsterdam. As a tribute to Michael Jackson, hundreds (might have even been thousands) of people gathered to perform a Thriller dance. These things are supposed to look like they've spontaneously appeared from a crowd, but unfortunately this one didn't work. A massive group gathered to watch (too many people had heard in advance) and the crowds were so thick that the dancers couldn't get through. I couldn't hear the music, ended up missing my cue and by the time I had managed to move towards the action the dance was over! Ah well, at least I got to learn the steps in the park! That was FUN!
