Celebrity Playlist: L. Dorsey, a.k.a. “The Combonator”
You know the Building Supervisor at Yates, the one who looks like Ving Rhames’s brother and inspires every scrawny kid to hit those free weights just a little bit harder? (Let’s face it, Type-A Georgetown Student, we both know you’re logging about forty hours a week at that gym anyway. You know who I’m talking about.) Well, you can call him Dorsey – while performing he goes by his b-boy moniker “The Combonator” – and not only does he put every other weightlifter on campus to shame, but he also pioneered break dancing in the District and was an original member of D.C.’s own Junkyard Band, as well as a graduate of Duke Ellington School of the Arts.
Here’s an eclectic playlist of ten favorite songs, courtesy of the man who helps keep Yates Field House running smoothly, plays piano by ear and will most definitely embarrass you in any break dance battle you challenge him to.
