C-c-c-combo breaker!

Dance Dance Revolution was initially released in 1998 and has since basically been replaced first by Guitar Hero and eventually by Rock Band because, apparently, we Americans would much rather sit down and play pretend guitar than actually move our legs to double-time J-pop. However, the fact is that the fusion of endorphins and the Tetris effect of objects moving across a screen is still an intoxicating combo. And fortunately for those of us (read: people like me) who are pining for the days when we nerdily* spent hour stomping on arrows, we recently received this email:

Dance Dance Revolution Club Club

“Those who were seen dance-dancing were thought to be insane by those who
could not hear the music.” – Fictional Friedrich Nietzsche

Harvard University’s brand new DDR club meets for the first time this
Friday, and you’re invited–join us as we take part in the Japanese video
game sensation that has swept the world! All skill levels are welcome,
whether you’re a dancing master or can’t tell your up arrow from your down
arrow.

Friday, February 12th
7:30 pm – 9:00 pm
Sever 110

Tell all your friends, and email Avalon Owens at
aowens@college.harvard.edu with any questions.

Yeah, we’re pumped.

*And believe me, I mean “nerdily” as an awesome compliment.
