One of the smaller dance areas was more crowded than the larger areas. The relationship inverted as the festival progressed towards the evening.

A dance area where no music was audible unless you wore headphones. Each person heard their own disco track so they danced to individualized music.

One dance area was under the shade of an overpass. Here, several folk only moved slightly, more as wall flowers than as actual dancers.

The dance area at 16th Street was crowded with folks dancing and folks pretending to dance as the shared images on their phones.

One fellow at 16th Street danced wearing an outrageous gold neckpiece. He danced with total abandon.
