Danca de Quadrado e uma locuraaaaaaa!

I love Brazil!!!!

Here's the original:



And here's one from a TV show with all the people dressed up as the various people who do the actions they tell people to do in the song...

If you are learning Portuguese, it gets funnier everytime as you recognize more words... watch it again once every couple months!

Mocidade with passistas on Mais Voce

Another fun video... at the end the Bateria does a thing that I've done before, but I can't remember where. At camp? Maybe it was the advanced-advanced bateria. Good times for all. I still can hardly believe that Mestre Jonas is going the be at camp this year, increivel!

I found this looking for clips with "samba street wear" for Diana from Vamola. We were talking about how passistas are not ALWAYS running around in fantasias and how they normally dress in the quadra. Not saying this clip is a great example of that, but a few kinda fit the not fantasia mold... Watch out for the capo da fusca on the one in the white one piece thing, it kind jumps in your face outta no where :)...

Here's some repinique maddness

That last video sent me on a repinique kick... here's some more madness... I'm off to continue burning partido alto into my brain.





Just a fun video...

Here's a fun little video from the quadra of Viradouro. I really love the repinique, what a wicked little drum...
