The Tap Dance Blog

Alright! This is the kind of stuff that blogs like this are great for! Let’s pull together as a community of tap lovers and help one of our own.

A tap dancer from New Jersey is one of the finalists in a competition to be on the cover of Dance Spirit magazine. She is the first tap finalist they have ever had in this competition and she needs your vote to win.

Her name is Amanda Viereck. She says that of all of the dance forms, tap is her absolute favorite. You can see a video featuring her right here where she talks about her love for tap and also performs. I found out about her when I read this article.

Here is your mission! (If you choose to accept it!)

1. Vote for her by following this link and clicking her photo! (The contest is over at the end of this month so vote now)

2. Come back here and leave a comment below, letting everyone else know that you voted and how easy it was.

3. Share this blog post with your friends on MySpace, Facebook, etc.! (If you don’t do social networking, you can skip this step.)

If everyone who reads this takes action we could make this young lady’s dream come true! (Not a bad way to start our week!)

For those that are curious, the song she is dancing too is called “Stream” and is a virtuosic guitar solo by the incredible Tim Reynolds. It comes from “Dave Matthews – Live at Luther College”.

Coincidentally, Dave Matthews Band is one of my favorite bands; I think that’s a sign!
