Stavros Flatley


Poetry Jam and 3WW

let's be crystal clear about this
these guys are not irish
they trample through the jig steps
a zorba celtic cracked choreographic crisis
looking a bit hopeless and helpless
could be more vigilant about some moves
and perhaps rethink the white socks

    God I remember that - technically it was meant to be Greek dancing..i think the dad even took his son out of school to pursue the 'dream'..watch this space for the meltdown when he hits 16!

    Perhaps the white socks were so expensive they couldn't afford shirts?

    This reminds me of Inspector Javert and Gold Lame Hotpant's Boy from Crackerjack Farm. You know ... it doesn't quite work ... and yet ... one is compelled to watch the clumsy dance.
