Sideshow Bob Can Also Dance

Posted by chirashi on 01 Jun 2007 | Tagged as: Amakusa

My job has been described as “Sideshow Bob for Kids,” which is true enough, but did anyone know that Sideshow Bob can also dance?

Right now I’m learning three dances for the July cultural exchange in Amakusa, but I will only be performing two, as I told my teacher that I am just too late to learn the haiya dance. Most of the members have been practicing for several months, but I only started last month. There’s just no way I can learn all of these dances all at once. I’m also really nervous about performing Tsuru no Koe, because if I screw up, it’s just me… all by myself… looking like an ass. Whereas, if I screw up the So-ran Bushi, I can at least hide my shame amidst the oba-san dancers.
