i never said anything about 'speculatively stating the many origins of stepping before shows'...i am speaking of common knowledge amongst those that step...not those that watch...i have never seen or heard any history of stepping gone over at a step show...and i don't see any reason to...that would be like explaining the history of jazz and hip hop before allowing a neo-classical soul performer to come on stage and perform...by then...i'm ready to go...not ready to see a performance...entertainment...there is a place and time for everything...and in my opinion...as a non-greek...but affiliated with one of the many origins of stepping...i don't see the point in breaking down the origins before each performance...please do not put words in my mouth...i mean no offense by that...but i said nothing to that effect...
peace and blessings...
