As I'm starting to spin in a crowded club, is there anyt way to increase my awarness of whats going on? And are there any other tips?

Was spinning with my mouse poi on saturday, great on the stage where there is a UV light (blue and green so i get bright green tails :D) but virtually invisible out in the open, just in front of the stage where the guys usually spin.

spin in corridors for practice... get your planes tight to the walls and youl start to be aware of where you are and spatial awarness will come naturally Smile

usually people tend to breeze away form me, but you can never be sure, i tend to keep my hands very close to my chest when spinning in crowded areas, and im always looking around kinda, but i dont club spin anymore since a bastard bouncer would let me >.< i wept!!

You have to remember that the people around you came to the club to dance, not to dodge around 'some nutter with glowy things on strings'.

So technically, they have the priority.

If they give you space, thats fine, but if you're having to dodge people make the decision that theres probably not enough space to spin without pissing a bunch of people off.
