That's a romanticized version of the 80's! LOL! People were indeed fighting. The YBI was a force in the D. Beirut was happening over seas. There was fighting.

Detroit was totally all cumbaya in the 80s & and 90s. Get pulled over by a cop- just challenge them to a dance off over who gets the ticket.. People out there robbing others would ask the victim to a dance off for ownership of the victims belongings. Even gangs got into the dance off scene. Instead of seeking violent revenge for their dead homeboy- they just challenge the other to a dance off.

I feel you I was 12 in1983 I lived in Detroit I loved this show watched all the time I could dance and I learned alot of dances off this show I was just too young too be on it I sure do miss it😢

Nat Morris, you were one of my biggest heroes. From the ages of 12-15, I fell in love all over again every day at 6 o'clock (time to rock). Those great dancers saw me through puberty.

Thanks for sharing. It's nice to see all the woman here are natural no one wearing a wig .

Go back a decade or two though. They were wearing wigs then. It's fashion just like clothing. But hey I was born in '82 I'm just going by pics I saw of the 60s/70s.

I just told my wife about the jit, the German Smurf, and The School Craft.

Good times! Now they're mom, dad, aunties, uncles, grandma, grandpa, some are probably retired or dead.

I think I saw Moses. He was definitely a regular on here. From 6-7pm I was glued to my TV standing up in my bed popping and shaking 😅😅😅. What a time to be alive❤

Are you ready to throw down? Yes we are😂

Back when people knew how to have fun

Always had the best music!

Nat, I tell you. I DJ nightclubs out here in Florida. The energy on the show (especially between 78-83) is what I absolutely long for these days - or something close to it . thank you again for these clips!

There are a of 1985 shows that have not been digitized. We are going through the videos to add the year that clip was done so dancers and fans have that information.

Damn this song is still amazing to this day. AEIOU

This just took me back to Jr High😂😊

A show like this couldn't exist nowadays cuz kids dont hardly dance no more

That's Me in the morning he 3rd open and spread! The tall good looking one hahaha

Anyone remember a dancer named Napoleon who was a scene dancer in the 80s? ❤

Yassss 💯💯💯👍🏽🔥🔥🔥👑

This is around mid or late summer of 1983. Could even be fall of that same year. The first song was a huge hit in the L.A. area by August of that year. I don’t remember Reaganomics but it may have been released in mid summer 1983. That song described a dismal view of the economy and there was a reason Reagan was referred to as Raygun. Many working class felt he killed many jobs with his policies. The early 80s was not so good for many people but a heck of a lot better than today.

Learn you vowels boys and girls. A, E, AEIOU, U, U and sometimes Y.

The Scene was the blue print for parties. The DJ had be live, and everyone was on the floor, no music breaks because of bad song selections.

Was there another dance show out of Detroit? I remember a guy wearing a cape & they did a line dance like on Soul Train

Hopefully those available can do a reunion??
