What does "bump" on SoWal.com mean when I see this in people's posts? There used to be a dance called the bump - it was one of my favorites. Should be a SoWal ho down favorite if you do some dancing. Here's a YouTube video of the bump and I still love it. Please, please, please make it the official SoWal dance, Daddy-0.

Shag dancing looks MUCH harder than the bump. I looked it up on youtube because I didn't know what shag dancing is - looks like you actually have to coordinate with a partner and know some real steps. The shag would be harder to do with a jello shot or pudding shot in your hand.this is all very true, Paula...
It IS very complicated...and if you don't do it right (ie...I "put too much booty " in it)....you are frowned upon....:shock:....
South Carolinians take their shagging seriously....too seriously..........:funn:hmmmm......can't remember
I think the Seinfeld folks used to spy on me...

Isn't shagging just a laid back jitter-bug?? I love to watch people do the jitter-bug.

"shagging" (the dance) is specific to the Carolinas...

My daddy and Stepmom used to love to do the jitterbug. I loved watching them.

I used to have tons of "beach music" mix tapes- shagging music that made it to Louisville from college friends in the Carolinas and Virginia. The Tams, the Embers, the Showmen, and the best- The Chairmen of the Board. Some of my friends had amazing collections and played the VA/NC frat party circuit. Of course, those were my "pink and green" days.
I just watched some of those youtubes, and not one played any real beach music- people are now shagging to anything, even country music. That just seems wrong!

I found THIS for me and you baby, because I didn't know what it was either.That's more than shag. That's shag++.
Simple shag:
Hold right hand of female with left hand of male.
Right-left-right (and lean slightly to the right when you step with your right foot).
Left-right-left.
Right-left (and back up a tad when you do this).
Then repeat the above.
If you are coordinated (which I am not), throw in some twirls here and there.
