Randall RobertsIt happens: You steal a glance, your heart starts moving faster, she looks back, you return the look, he rubs up against you at the bar, you rub back, and then, boom, he/she has vanished, and love connection has fizzled. Maybe.
Thanks to Craigslist's 'Missed Connections' page, though, it doesn't have to be the end. There's a slim, but real, chance that the loveline can be reconnected. We here at West Coast Sound are all about hooking up, and want to help the lovelorn and/or horny get busy, so we're taking a page out of fellow LA Weekly blogger Dennis Romero's brilliant post of last week that aided Halloweeners in finding love.
What follows are missed connections over last weekend that somehow involve clubland: either concerts or danceclubs. Maybe you have a pink mohawk and were at the Business show at the Key Club last week? Or did you get a sexy look at Japandroids? See below.

Hey! So this is kinda odd and I normally wouldn't do this, but I had fun dancing with you last night at Rage and think it might be cool to grab a drink sometime since we didn't actually talk, except for a quick intro as it was closing. Tell me something so I know it's you.

Fubar Friday night – m4m – 22

To the blond haired, twenty something in the brown? jacket being led around by an older, handsier guy… I haven't been eye fucked like that probably ever… especially not twice. I was the guy in the blue slim fit jacket with facial hair. I even enjoyed watching you ogle the dancer for free liquor.
A long shot to be sure, but you lingered on my mind…

Tony at Akbar Friday night – m4m – 31 (Silverlake)
Date: 2009-11-28, 1:52PM PST
I feel a little weird posting this, but I'm kicking myself for not introducing myself to you earlier in the evening instead of waiting to do so as you were leaving.
We both had our group of friends, but we kept making eye contact across the bar. I can't get your smile out of my head!
If by any chance you see this, respond back with a description of me. We briefly exchanged names as you left. Mine also begins with a “T”

Latin GoGo Dancer at Fubar fri. – m4m – 26 (weho)
Date: 2009-11-28, 7:09PM PST
Does anyone know anything about the cute boy dancing fri night at Furar? I was mesmerized by him and too shy to try to talk to him. If I knew something about him I think I could start a conversation. He's tall and has star tattoos.

Guy at Rage – m4m – 18 (West Hollywood)
Date: 2009-11-28, 11:50PM PST
You and I danced briefly before I had to go, we were looking at each other for a large part of the night. I put my number into your phone but I don't think I held “send” long enough for the call to go through. Anyway, if you see this, e-mail me. Tell me what color shirt you were wearing.

King King – m4w (Hollywood)

I was walking to the bar, you were standing there wearing a low cut green shirt, you had 2 friends also wearing green. We shared a look and I was going to say hi but I remembered that tonight, I came out to get out of my head for a while and that includes meeting new people.
But now that the night is over, even if it's a long shot, girl in green, I want to dance…. with you!
you slipped away to the bathroom and That small glimpse was all I got, yet I want more.

You were the cute guy in the plaid jacket dancing by the stage. I had the black cap and glasses and was dancing near you. Just wanted to tell you how cute, sexy and adorable you are. Not to mention a fantastic dancer. Wish I'd said something to you when I had the chance.

We were the OrchestraView squatters. You play(ed) oboe. I play oboe. You teach piano and we both know Bernadette at RDG. If you are looking for a concert date/buddy sometime, please let me know! I'm thinking about going again on Tuesday to see Kronos play Zappa and Partch.
