MacDailyNews - Where Mac news comes first

Love it! Livin' life! This made me smile.

I dont see any ZUNES.. do you? perhaps there should be a new where's waldo book, where everyone has an ipod and the waldo you are looking for has a zune.

Amusing!

DLMeyer - the Voice of G.L.Horton's Stage Page pod-cast

Then, tear-gassed and tired, the dancers went home to collect their welfare checks...

In the States they would be all arrested for terrorism or posing a threat to teh national security and sent to Guantanamo.

I am shocked there weren't any Zunes....oh wait only 16 have been sold!

@R: Thanks for the laugh!

What's great is you can open iTunes, pick your own tune, and the crowd dances along. Unless it's, like, Beethoven. Or Low. Or Edith Piaf. Well, you get the picture.

The video is lame, they look like idiots. I was hoping they would look cool.

I guess I should point out that:
- they call that dancing?
- they call that video?

Yes, that was the rather constrained confines of Victoria Station. Nice to see it again, what I could. But any of those folk who can be recognized will have some 'splainin to do if their teen-aged kids get to see that. And it would have been nice if one of the blokes with a REAL video camera had cared to share. I saw a couple recording the event!

I thought it was way cool. Imagine 4000 young people dancing and gyrating and having a good time and.... all the time they are doing it quietly!!!

Wish my two teenageers at home were like that.

This looks like a lot of fun. Cool. But, why does everyone like YouTube? The video quality SUCKS always.

They do look like idiots. I don't think it's cool disrupt public transportation like that. And Mark you are a nimrod. You don't understand the terrorism threat around you.

In Chicago, they would've been arrested under the anti-rave ordinance. Apparently, you can't dance anywhere in the city now if the location isn't licensed for it.

@Alison,
Wow, you're paranoid and shrill, and you seem to want to take all the fun out of life.

Wait . . . Dick Cheney, is that you?

How things have changed

when I was their age, we had mass streakings thru malls,

Alison, the terrorist threat is entirely made up by the Bush administration to scare idiots like you.

I wonder if the two zune owners were able to find each other and squirt some poo to each other?

P*L*U*R

Man I can't wait until YouTube boosts their video quality.

"4000 dumb asses with no lives gather in one place to act like retards" would have been a more suitable headline.

@ Chrissyone:
To quote the Gieco neanderthal "WHAT"????

@ Anthony007:
That is both sick and disgusting (I wish I had posted it first). Don't those 2 b*stards have enough problems without you picking on them?? Picking on Zune owners is like clubbing baby seals!
I can't see the video because I'm @ work and don't have rights to view them. Yes, I work in a winblows shop. We all have crosses to bear.

@ Jumbo

I'm an American in Chennai, Indian - bored out of my skull. How do I set one of these up?

I think pimple needs a hug.
I just wish I had the extra time it takes to do something as pointless as groove out in a train station.
Then again, my family likes to eat, so it's off to work I go.

DLMeyer" But any of those folk who can be recognized will have some 'splainin to do if their teen-aged kids get to see that.

They'll use the same excuses their grandmothers give when Beatles mob scenes show up on telly.

How long does it take before the iron rod rusts?

@G-Zus

"Alison, the terrorist threat is entirely made up by the Bush administration to scare idiots like you."

tell that to the people who died at the world trade center you stupid freaking idiot

For a start at pimps, shut up!!! i mean for crying out loud do ave a life urself, yes its pointless but to actually do it must have been fun. Its just people having a bit of fun and a laugh!! End of!

plus it was at 6:53pm which means they had finished a day's work had there tea and went for a boogie! for a change, cause how many times has this happened! eh!!

The people who think its idiot stupid and all that. What do you do at that time! and do u do the same thing every night!! a change is good!!

plus it was publicity for ipods, showing how many people have them in one place, shows how good they are!!

pity it wasnt better quality though!!!

@ British born and bred

Some people are deathly allergic to fun. >.<

Welcome to the real social.

Mind the Gap!

It seems like a lot of fun. Even for someone whose eyes witnessed the fall of the Twin Towers (non-sequitur, I know). I'd love for something like this to happen at Penn Station at 5:00 PM on a weekday. All the dogs and all their National Guardsmen would probably join in.

Mudflapper-can you imagine how much that would suck right now with all the construction BS going on and the slowdowns at the Belmont & Fullerton stations? It'd be cool to try, but I'm thinking we'll have to wait until 2009 when the CTA gets its sh*t fixed.

"All the dogs and all their National Guardsmen would probably join in."

Not a chance. All those kids dancing in silence are nothing but terrorists. The National Guard has its reputation to uphold. It knew what to do at Kent State, and did it.

Mark,

I Europe they ARE already in Guantanamo, being filmed and watched and profiled every step they do in the cities.

Think about it....

I don't think I want to see what this would have looked like if they were Zune users instead.

Welcome to the facial.

Cubert... that's the best take so far! hilarious!

It's tough being on the dole. You sit around all day watching telly. You go for a curry. What else is there?

Just grab that iPod loaded with pirated tunes and head for the nearest flash mob.

Very crappy pictures at 11.

How nice.
Mutual masturbation.

i can't believe youtube is so popular. the video quality is horrible on there!

I wished this happened in the US. (Does it?) Those crazy Brits have all the fun. *cry*

@Alison: "Fear: an unpleasant emotion caused by the belief that someone or something is dangerous, likely to cause pain, or a threat." See, that's what the terrorists want to do -- subdue people by causing them fear. It sounds to me like the terrorists have succeeded with you.

MW: I need to find some people around here to do this!

What the world needs is more unabashed nontoxic zaniness.

Those who cannot hear the music,
Think the dancer's mad.

dear r,

jaded is a word you know much too well. what a shame.

viva hedonistic pleasures!!!

Too much free time!

Freddy the Pig,

yeah.

In the first video, I caught a glimpse of a businessman walking by.
His pace quickened as he noticed the masses of writhing bodies.

Pathetic losers!

it's hilarious that there are people who fail to get the fun in this. it must be the same creative minds who identify with the ever-so-funny mac vs pc ads and think that 'irony' is a kind of metal.

Check out my first Flash mob...I wanted it to be the biggest flash mob ever.
