How do you dance to “Lion...”?
Oh, those teen age dances. What memories. My grandchildrenn are going through that phase now. It’s funny that my most awkwardly social grandson loves the dances. Probably because his mom enrolled him in “Cotillion” as a 6th grader, so he knows exactly what to do as a 9th grader. Next year he wants to volunteer as a Cotillion monitor — an older boy who helps keep order and demonstrates how to behave to the younger members.
There is an advantage to growing up in the south!
I don’t think any of us knew we couldn’t dance to “The Lion ...” LOL Can you believe they also played a few Polka Tunes also. We were way behind the times in Laos in 1964.
We did not know a band called the Beatles even existed. The first time I heard one of their songs I was on my way to go back to the states to go to school. My mother and her best friend and her son had escorted us on a flight to Hong Kong. We stayed in the President Hotel and our Mothers took us down to one of the lounges in the hotel one evening. There were 4 very nice looking Chinese girls on stage playing Beatles Songs, same type hair and all. They were very good. When I got back to the States I finally heard the songs on the radio and saw a few pictures and actually believed I had seen the Beatles in Hong Kong. LOL - How wrong I was!
