Responding to Nilesite's exciting Open Call for Pure Energy I have videos that one might say are "photographs on steroids."
I was working on a post about music videos shot in the city prior to seeing the open call and felt those fit the bill because they are full of energy. Also to start off the post I have videos I shot last fall at Occupy Wall Street and posted last October that show lots and lots of energy:
And now the Made in New York City music videos and related breakdancing videos......

I really loved the videos and watched every one of them. I miss the Saloon, even thought the waitstaff was probably among the worst in the city. Loved the shots of the basketball courts, and the great beat of the 80s music. I know that block with the two sax players too.
Fabulous - and I am energized! Thank you so much for jumping in with both feet and a camera!
Wow, that was some Grandmaster Flash rapping going down.
Is Spree a religious cult?
no matter, their shows are weird enough.
note: on your post, a person can remix some;
like play Flash and Spree at the same time.
