National Dance Day 2011 With Art Attack: On Like Donkey Kong

We've been getting a lot of calls and emails about Art Attack's first-ever National Dance Day event, which takes place at the Houston Press parking lot tomorrow at 10 a.m. We are beyond pleased that so many people are almost as excited as we are about tomorrow's flash mob-style gathering.

Even if this is the first you've heard of the event, you've still got time to prepare. Just watch this video to learn the steps to an easy salsa routine. Then show up tomorrow and dance it with us.

And if you're still not clear on exactly what the hell's going on around here, here's the info in manageable, bite-sized pieces:

How early do I have to get up? The event starts at 10 a.m. this Saturday. Where is this again? The Houston Press back parking lot, 1621 Milam, as seen in this video:

Who can come? Anyone and everyone's invited to participate. So what exactly's going down? Everyone's encouraged to learn this easy salsa routine at home, then show up at the Press to dance it together on Saturday. We'll even videotape it and submit it via Youtube to So You Think You Can Dance. What do I wear to this? A white t-shirt (and whatever legwear you prefer). What's the food situation? We'll have snacks and water. Weren't there other instructional videos? Oh yes.

What about a video that just shows the dance steps? We've got that, too.

See y'all tomorrow.
