DJ
Markey G sent his latest new song to me and of course I'm sharing it
with you. Personally, I feel it's his best work yet to date so be sure
to listen to the track; it's called "I
Wanna Go Steppin" (Hit the bar and tell us if you like this new
song). Of course there isn't a stepper in Chicago who doesn't know his
hit song "I'm the Man". The enigmatic DJ has been constantly bringing
out great music for quite a few years dating back to the 80's. Right
now, Dan Land has an extensive interview video in his site
steppersexpress.com. The interview is extremely well made and gives
you a unique insight to Markey G., the man and his music. Dan also has
created a Twitter presence Kudos to you Dan for both the interview video
and using Twitter, as well as a great article called "Boppin or
Steppin?" For those of you who don't use Twitter, or pay attention to
the bar on SteppersUSA, the rumor about the House of Lynwood is true and
the place is closed. The May 30th set "Steppin in Whateva" Hosted by A
True Steppers Connection has been relocated to: Dolton Expo Center (New
Location) 14200 Chicago Road Dolton, IL. I still don't have any
confirmation about the rumor about the Premier in Dolton. If you know
anything, please let me know and I'll pass it on. I got an email asking
why I didn't put the Twitter widget on SteppersUSA. Actually, the answer
is simple. There's too much on the pages of the website right now as it
is. If you would like to join SteppersUSA in Twitter or just to check it
out, you'll see the twitter bird just below our logo. Just click on the
twitter bird and it will bring you right to the
SteppersUSA
page on Twitter. I'll see you at the White Party at the Saber Room
tonight. Watch the bar or follow SteppersUSA by

A Message To All Steppers (Click Here to View)
Please copy the message below and send it on to as many steppers as you can please!
This is an open message to ALL steppers. Please share it with as many people as possible.
As many of you may already know I started a new web site for the benefit of the greater steppers community. It's called History of Stepping Project. I wish to encourage you to add your knowledge to the timeline. If you know anything about stepping, please share this with the public on this site. We are looking for all information related to stepping from it's beginnings to the present. The information literally includes everything from clubs and bars which held steppers sets and parties to contests and the participants and results, to when different steppers organizations and classes started, who the instructors were and are; Musical bands, and artists, DJ's, radio and television personalities, Movies, videos, and photos… literally everything stepping.
Creating an accurate historic timeline will go a long way toward helping the community take the next step in its logical progression as it continues to grow nationwide and will become a valuable resource for all in the future.
Your input, your knowledge and your effort have made the dance what it is today. Don't you feel your place (and your organization's) in the timeline is well deserved? I do!
Please send an email to your members or readers inviting them to participate. Place a link on your web site also please. All support is appreciated!The effort requires more than just posting the information. The need for fact checkers, people willing to do some research exists in this important ongoing project. Just a few minutes a week can make a difference.
Thank You for your time!
