Austin, Texas Presents: bluesSHOUT! 2010
Friday, April 16th - Sunday, April 18th http://www.bluesshout.com/
BluesSHOUT! and its predecessors have been at the top of my radar for 5 years now. I always go, even when I think it's impossible to do so, and I'm always glad I that did. Now that I'm living in England (and totally flat ass broke), I thought it was truly impossible to make it this year... but I'm already starting to reconsider. Now folks in the US have no excuse!
Southwest Airlines has a sale going on RIGHT NOW for folks in Denver if you book by Thursday. Flights during Shout weekend (out Friday, April 16th and back on Monday, April 19th) are as low as $87 per leg.
Hopefully you’ve been saving your pennies for bluesSHOUT! Austin, because we’re happy to announce that REGISTRATION WILL OFFICIALLY OPEN ON Monday, February 15th!! (That’s just in one week, folks.) If you register for the event early, you’ll get the lowest price for all the workshops, social dancing and contests throughout the weekend in Austin.
Early Bird pricing will not last forever, so please register as soon as possible! There will be "After 5" passes offered later in the registration process.
BRING IT!
Don’t forget that if you hope to perform for this year’s Shout, you have another week to submit an entry for selection. Please submit your video clip for review no later than Monday, February 15th. We’re currently looking for:
Girl and/or Guy Troupes
Couples
Partnered Troupes
Solo Blues Performances
Since we know you're the kind of dancer who knows a good thing when you see it, we're offering you a special Early Bird price of $115! (There's also a special discount for international dancers - just $105). You'll want to act fast though, this great price won't last long!
By the way, did you get your performance video together? You've got 'til the end of the night to submit your video to Damon Stone at damon@blues-dance.com !
Tina :)
P.S. Want bluesSHOUT! in your town? BluesSHOUT! 2011 is already set for Boston, but we're looking for cities to host us for the rest of the decade. Think your town has what it takes? We'd love to hear from you at our info line - info@bluesshout.com.
Thanks to everyone who’s registered for this year’s bluesSHOUT! It’s gonna be the event of the year! As if you didn’t have enough reasons already, here are few more to head down to Austin come April…

MORE TIME TO REGISTER
If you haven’t registered at our super low Early Bird price for $115 don’t worry, you still have a couple of weeks to register for a full event pass at the lowest price available. If you're waiting on a Dances Only pass, sit tight just a bit longer, we will keep you posted!
