    Dancing man Matt Harding premieres 2008 film on YouTube

    June 20, 8:55 AM
    by Laura Vecsey, Seattle People Examiner
     
     
    It is the first day of summer, which means it is the summer solstice, which means the Fremont Fair is upon us and so is the sun that will hang over Seattle until we almost touch midnight. It is a sort of otherwordly time of the year here, since we are blessed with strangely long summer days. And what better way to feel the power of the planet under the sun -- and to contemplate its many distresses and challenges -- then with Matt Harding?

    Yes, the dancing man whose first YouTube video inspired more than 9 million views of Wherethehellismatt? dancing all over the world today released his 2008 film: Where The Hell is Matt? (2008)

    Examiner.com spoke with Matt last week, when he first returned from his world trip to his adopted home of Seattle. Just as he did in his first film, when he danced in his final scene in front of the Seattle troll, Matt filmed the final scene of the new 2008 film at Gas Works Park.

    Here he is, Matt Harding, dancing for us all over the world. I'm ready for the trip. You?

    October 1, 11:56 AM

    Nickelsville, Hooverville: Seattle homeless take on new meaning in market collapse

    September 23, 10:52 AM

    September 22, 12:43 PM
    We really miss him in Seattle, now that the Mariners are the worst team in baseball. Good ol' Lou Piniella. The Mariners skipper and his antics are the stuff of legend around here, the way he used to throw a base and get himself ejected.It's a time-honored... Read More
