I hope that other performers feels the way Mr. Maupin feels about preserving that form of wonderful entertainment. It's what real life really can be, not sure that folks nowadays understand that.
I’m an Irish fiddler, and whistle player, from California; The parallels between this and Irish _séan nós_ dancing are just amazing to me. Even in Mexico, look up _zapatecas_ - they dance on boards like this, which I’m sure was influenced by Spanish hardshoe dancing… which I’m guessing influenced early Irish dancing, centuries ago. Crazy how traditions evolve, travel, and are molded within the communities they become a part of.
HELLO. IM FROM CLARKSVILLE TN, NOT FAR FROM YOU. IM ORIGINALLY FROM THE SMOKEY MOUNTAINS. EAST TN PEOPLE LOVES BLUEGRASS MUSIC AND THIS KIND OF DANCING. I LOVE IT. GOD BLESS YOU SIR.
THOMAS ES EL MEJOR, EL MAS GRANDE!! THE BEST!! NO PARARAS DE BAILAR ALLA DONDE ESTES, BAILANDO EN EL CIELO, CON LOS ANGELES..... UN SALUDO DESDE MADRID, ESPAÑA (EUROPA)
"Ach du lieber, mein schatz"! WOWIE WOW WOW!!! Man o man, do I love to see this wonderful guy "strut his schtooff"! Is BUCK DANCIN' "akin" to TAP DANCIN'? Bet Mr. Maupin weighs all of 110lbs OR LESS (soppin' wet!)!!! Size 29 pants too? What a great PLEASURE he must get from his dancin'! HE & Sammy Davis Jr. should have teamed together!!! They could share the same pants too! The banjo playin' is "first class" too!! "Gesundheit"!
I don't know why I can't stop watching Mr Maupin.
