I've taken a screen shot of it and will compare it with the movie when I get time, thanks.

Anyone know the dance? There should be a video how-to! I saw it at the screening at the Hammer Museum in LA last summer- such fun!
We've got two ledgers, and one smoked-cheese pig. Which one do we burn? And it ain't gonna be my pig.

LUCKY! i was only able to see that on the web, as im landlocked in the midwest. but from what i remember, there is more to the dance than just stopping at the "jump up" lyric.
wish the whole routine couldve been included in MTTH or somewhere else on the 2nd disc.
and i think you just nominated yourself for the how to video. :)

I'm so impressed those girls actually had names!!!
And I'd love a how-to video for the Locomotion--great idea! Image

Well I do have a friend in the film... could possibly get her to do a how-to... maybe we could you-tube it? hehe...

A couple of notes:
I read that DL has recently married the actress that played Lanni, the one that answers Sue's query, 'look and tell me: have you ever seen me before?', with 'Yes, we will do that.'
Is this an instance where some of the girls are in a scene with other people than Sue ( except the H'wood Blvd hooker ones, I guess) ? That would mean they are not, as my wife insists, 'her imaginary playmates.'
**
From the weird, wonderful and, apparently, Phantom-administered Inland Empire Discussion Board, I have gleaned the concept that the 'Locomotion' references an old Amiga game, one where the players switch the train tracks in order to sabotage the competition and that the Phantom is doing just this in IE.
I Like It. This explains ( to my current satisfaction) , better than the 'wormhole' analogy favored by my wife, those weird (mostly) Interior Geographies that Nikki walks through near the end.
***Yeah, I think, as has been Posted here,someone(s) are trying to trap the Phantom in a role ( incarnation, whatever), so as to do him in with that gun.
