Tango Gourmet: Waltz of Salsa

Brief from client
This is the logo for the game Tango Gourmet: Waltz of Salsa, which is the squeal to the game Tango Gourmet: The Soup Chronicles.
I am making a logo for the imaginary video game Tango Gourmet, which is a rhythm game that combines everyone's favourite two video game genres - cooking games and dancing games.
I wanted to focus more on the cooking and fun side of the game rather than the hardcore dancing side, so the DDR logo was too intense to reference.
It will be going on a purple background!

Please don't give me a virtual middle finger....but it kind of looks like a sign more than a logo!
And the goldish outlines create some weirdness where they meet (i.e. above "a" in Waltz, next to the "S" in salsa, and above the "s" in salsa) Also, the larger outline goes up into the letter "n" in tango and the letter "r" in gourmet, but nowhere else- if you were to keep this, it would probably work just as well if that was smoothed out like around all the other letters.
Why would I get upset at perfectly reasonable advice? I certainly never would do that.
It does look a bit like a sign, but that is the style I referenced. Cooking games, dancing games, and cute games that are phone appish all mostly seem to have banners rather than true logos. Especially the cooking game that I am specifically parodying with this logo, all of their logos are big rounded billboard looking things.
I am definitely keeping it. ;)
But I think I will tweak it to remove some of the spiky bits you mentioned!
Thanks!
haha I didn't think you would! I work for a sign co. too so my brain instantly thought cloud sign! But hey, if the style fits then go for it! =)
