Seen the Sasquatch festival dancing man? The lone dancer infected a whole field of people with his rhythmical moves to 'Unstoppable' by Santogold (and unstoppable he really was, illustrated by videos that track him dancing from morning to night).

And it's those moments of involuntary dancing that make me excited for the festival season. I'm not a big club goer or dance head, so usually I opt for gigs and the odd alternative indie schmindie late night dance-athon. But I truly love those moments when everybody is on the same wavelength.

So, I thought I'd have a stab at predicting those mass dancing moments for the upcoming festivals...

Pendulum: I'm not a big fan but I would love to be in the crowd for the hook in 'Propane Nightmare'. Forget the first minute or so... have a drink or something. But the point where it kicks in, phoaw! And then the singing part beings, relax... ignore... and then repeat.

2 Many DJs: There'll be too many moments to mention one!

Electric Picnic
The Sugarhill Gang: "Up jump the boogie to the bang bang boogie, let's rock, you don't stop
rock the riddle that will make your body rock" - can you argue with that??!

Live in the Park: Newcastle, Co. Down
The Prodigy: Last time I seen the Prodigy I remember fearing for my life. I got right up the front against the barrier - schweet! Until Maxim started to freak me out with his eyeballing theatrics and primitive scare tactics... insane but genius. I danced myself to safety.

Some great electronica, but I'm not sure what my dancing moment would be? I'm relying on Mr. Hamill, Mr. McClean,ÌýMr. Rigsy or youÌýlotÌýto fill me in. My ignorance is out...
