SEATTLE, - Organizers of a Seattle flash mob event inspired by TV series "Glee" said more than 1,000 people are expected to dance in the streets in three secret locations.

Bobby Bonsey and Egan Orion, the head of Seattle Pride Fest, said more than 1,700 people have confirmed attendance for Saturday's "Glee" flash mob, which will feature groups of people dancing in the streets to music from the hit musical TV series, on Facebook and many have been preparing with dance rehearsals and instructional videos made by the duo, Seattlepi.com reported Thursday.

The organizers said participants will be informed of the three secret locations at the latest possible time and will gather to dance for only 3 minutes, 50 seconds before quickly dispersing.

"If you've ever been in a flash mob, there's something so magical about being in the middle of it," Bonsey said. "All these people are laughing, being crazy around you, whom you don't even know."

01.10.10 A Big Year to Come
Okay, I’m barely overwhelmed, but overwhelmed nevertheless. 2010 is going to be a big year for me personally. PrideFest has come into its own, and now I’m taking on GreenNote, a green music festival, in July. It’s a brand-new event, and there’s no parade leading the people to the festival. With over 100 performers and ticketed night concerts, it’s a huge undertaking, and I’m not taking it lightly. I get final approval from the city next Wednesday. Add to that a Glee Flash Mob we’ll be doing in April and in June for Pride and you’ll understand why this year is full of excitement, art, business, friends, new experiences, etc. Guess that’s what life is all about.

1.20.09 Change Starts Now
It’s Inauguration Day in America, and it’s 8:10 AM here in Seattle - less than an hour before Obama takes the oath of office. We are not only on the cusp of history, we are making history, and the energy in these United States is palpable. I look forward to what a man with an 83% approval rating coming into office, faced with massive challenges, can do to transform a nation. If his steady hand and sober leadership so far is any indication, change starts now, and America is on the rise again. I can’t wait to hear his speech.

A bit of TRIVIA: Larry Niven described Flash Mobs precisely back in 1972 in one of his short stories. (Flash Crowd)

They were also called "smart mobs" when there was criminal intent. Those have hit malls in several large cities, Philly being one.

The police have sworn to arrest EVERYONE next time. Or at least try.
